AI-driven SHA was sold to us as a revolution in healthcare financing. However, the algorithm overcharges the poorest Kenyans while undercharging the wealthy - Faith Odhiambo

Karen Nyamu’s remarks should be enough to disqualify her from holding any public office forever

Is there anyone who schooled or witnessed Senator Karen Nyamu in law school? Either at undergraduate level or at the Kenya School of Law. Any one person?

We cannot be fighting rape and femicide everyday then a grown woman sexualizes a child infront of 'honourable' members who find it funny. In a country where children are raped and killed everyday?? NO!! #KarenNyamuOUT

What happened in the Senate Chamber on 25th March 2026 was not just an embarrassment but a gross violation of the dignity of a child. A young female student who went to Parliament under the School Voluntary Service Scheme to learn was met with inappropriate and degrading remarks from Senator Karen Nyamu. The Senate must be a SAFE space that affirms the dignity and future of our Children. Article 53(1)(d) of the Constitution guarantees every child the right to be protected from abuse and inhuman treatment. Article 53(2) makes the child's best interests paramount in every matter with no exceptions. Additionally, Section 22(1) of the Children Act 2022 prohibits any person from subjecting a child to psychological abuse which includes acts causing embarrassment and humiliation. I call upon the Senate to go beyond accepting the theatrical apology and take concrete accountability measures. Senator Karen Nyamu still sought to justify her conduct even while purporting to apologise. An apology that is read and accepted in minutes is NOT justice. If we are serious about protecting the girl child, then our institutions must reflect that seriousness.

This afternoon I had the privilege of joining the Inaugural Young Lawyers Committee meeting convened by Nairobi Rep Effie Sheila Achieng. I am convinced that this is a timely and necessary conversation for the future of our profession. The emphasis on the welfare of lawyers in their first 0–5 years is both commendable and long overdue. That said, we must also challenge ourselves to look ahead: are we equipping young lawyers for the realities of modern legal practice, or anchoring them in models that no longer reflect the direction of the profession? There is a clear need to expand into contemporary areas of practice and to deliberately position young lawyers to succeed beyond traditional pathways. Equally, we must begin to seriously explore innovative financing models, including venture capital, as viable avenues to support the establishment and sustainability of young law firms. I remain available to support this initiative whether through mentorship, collaboration, or contributing to ongoing conversations in these areas. The growth of the profession depends on how intentionally we invest in its next generation.

You're given some vague "orders from above" to go and arrest an elderly doctor and detain him over the weekend for a misdemeanor, you as a police officer blindly follow said orders. You then draw up some bogus charge and another person at the ODPP signs off on the bogus charge.

The person who killed this young lady should also be sentenced to death and executed. We cannot tolerate these criminals tossing girls out of windows like it’s some casual hobby. Death penalty, public and broadcast it so that everyone can get the message.
