Luck gets the credit, effort paid the price.

It is a truly dark and heartbreaking day for the thousands of hardworking traders who rely on Gikomba Market for their daily bread. In the early hours of this morning, a ferocious fire tore through the market with terrifying speed, leaving vast sections of it in ruins. Once again, these resilient men and women have been dealt a devastating blow. Goods worth billions of shillings -the hard-earned fruits of their sweat, sacrifice, and dreams -have been reduced to ashes. The damage represents a significant economic blow to both our city and the nation as a whole, one that will inevitably ripple through livelihoods and local growth. Gikomba Market has endured repeated unexplained fire outbreaks. Sadly, today’s incident is the largest conflagration the market has ever seen, causing massive losses to traders and their families. In addition, we lost three people and seventeen others were seriously injured. Nearly 90% of the open market stalls have been completely wiped out, including the destruction of the vibrant Block B & C markets. I have sent President Ruto a written update on the situation and the plight of those affected, and I have also spoken with Nairobi Governor Sakaja, stressing the urgent need for timely interventions to support the impacted traders. I should also be making an extended statement on the Gikomba tragedy on the National Assembly early next week. This afternoon, together with Nairobi North Sub-Regional County Commissioner Osumba, we held an emergency meeting with the leadership of Gikomba Market. We agreed on immediate next steps, including the deployment of police to secure and protect the market, which remains extremely vulnerable. @WilliamsRuto @SakajaJohnson @citizentvkenya @NationAfrica @StandardKenya

@methumuhia @inoorotv Sensible observers easily recognize tonight's guest as nothing more than an entertainer masking propaganda as resistance. #InooroPayToPlayGame Choreographed Kiririmbi Show ¦¦ Methu Hyper Circus

The Kiririmbi show has unfortunately degenerated into a rented vehicle for partisan propaganda. Credibility is gone. #InooroPayToPlayGame Choreographed Kiririmbi Show ¦¦ Methu Hyper Circus

Affordable Housing is proving that development works best when it is inclusive. The KES 15 billion investment into MSMEs is empowering local artisans, formalizing supply chains, and ensuring that economic benefits reach ordinary Kenyans at the grassroots.

Modern housing developments are transforming Kenya’s urban landscape. By integrating homes, businesses, and public infrastructure within the same developments, the Urban Renewal Strategy is creating more efficient and vibrant cities.

Under President William Ruto’s Bottom-Up Economic Transformation Agenda, the Aff Housing Programme is empowering local artisans and small businesses. A KES 15 billion injection into the Jua Kali sector is creating jobs, expanding markets, and strengthening Kenya’s MSME economy.

A strong TVET sector means a stronger economy. The Ksh58.5 billion allocation will support institution funding, instructor salaries, modern workshops, and training equipment, empowering thousands of young Kenyans with employable skills.

From classrooms and laboratories to examinations and school feeding programmes, the Ksh136.6 billion allocation for Basic Education demonstrates a continued commitment to improving learning outcomes and expanding access to education across Kenya.

The FY 2026/27 Budget reinforces the government’s commitment to higher education, with Ksh56.3 billion allocated to HELB loans, up from Ksh15.4 billion in 2020. More students will access financing, scholarships,andopportunities to complete their studies without financial barriers

Pray against the spirit of sudden problems that arise whenever you receive money.
