@thesarahmwangi @rigathi You were clearly the weakest link in that interview..Your colleague was objective in his questioning,asking thought-provoking questions & giving context. You angled to distract him by interjecting & asking superfluous questions & annoying laughter.

The Oligarch
The Oligarch@NytoP2PMwangi·
This is a 2.5-minute clip of the then Deputy President Rigathi Gachagua threatening Kenya Kwanza MPs to vote for the Finance Bill. Dear Wamunyoro bloggers, how quickly have you forgotten that all MPs from Mt Kenya voted for the Finance Bill, including your “sacred son” Ndindi Nyoro? In fact, he was the one who drafted it as the Budget and Appropriations Committee Chairman. All Kenya Kwanza MPs voted for it, while all Azimio MPs opposed it. No Wamunyoro blogger should lecture us about the Finance Bill. The only people with a moral standing to do so are the ODM MPs and Gen Zs. The late Ol Kalou MP David Kiaraho voted for that Finance Bill, as instructed by his coalition principals, President William Ruto and then DP Rigathi Gachagua, It is not a crime! We live in a democracy, and party discipline is vital. And by the way, there was nothing wrong with the Finance Bill, we were just too emotional, and some people wanted to take advantage. All the bad & controversial provisions had already been struck out, In fact, It was correcting some awful policies that had been adopted in 2023 Finance Bill! Let the good man rest.

President Ruto to Gachagua: You can trade in insults all you want, but you will account for what belongs to widows and orphans. The Nairobi hotel and the Kilifi property must be returned, no amount of rhetoric will change that.

@abbiezuena Sifuna is actually a thug in a suit and the gift of the gab. You only need to find out how he became the SG of ODM. Pure thuggery..But Kenya is such an impressionable society .

The downfall of Sisi ndio Sifuna movement will be women. Omwami is moving around with daughters of Agrippina calling themselves baddies of Sifuna. Women who don't add any value to the movement other than slaying & shouting “clock it” with their cricket sounds. Maajabu ya Musa!!

Kenya’s G7 invite isn’t new. Uhuru Kenyatta (2017) & William Ruto (2024) have been there before. South Africa (2018, 2025), Senegal (2021), Rwanda (2022) have featured too. No fixed African seat. I don't know why "Pan-Africanists" are having a fit. @kinjeketile @LegalEzra

US and Israel deliberately bombed Iran's top space research university. A researcher on the ground confirms the total destruction of labs developing indigenous civilian satellites. This is a calculated attack by Washington to cripple scientific progress.

Meanwhile, ours are busy spending on cars, watches, designer wear, baddies, houses with bad curtains and sad landscaping, Dubai and London dead assets etc. Very low quality.

@chadbironga @Asamoh_ ASAL areas have unique character and specific nuances that should be reflected on the poverty index instruments. A multi -dimensional poverty Index is an apt tool but not conclusive either. An MPI pilot by KNBS placed Turkana at around 6th place in the poverty index.

@pride_mount @Asamoh_ Umesema quality of life in Turkana is so good and market economy data is masking it? Then give us an index that is not market-economy based and which would say otherwise...

In Mt. Kenya, when an MP dies, they are replaced by someone conversant with local politics, someone capable of continuing the legacy. They are not replaced by family members. It is only in Luo Nyanza where leadership appears to be inherited. Even the Kalenjin community has rejected that Nonsense. That is why, 62 years after independence, people in Luo Nyanza are still blaming other regions for their underdevelopment. They continue to perpetuate a cycle of corrupt leadership, while their leaders normalize blaming those from Mt. Kenya as scapegoats for their own corrupt dealings.

@Askforken @TheCinesthetic The biggest problem in UG then was decentralized violence. Brutes in the army committed unspeakable crimes without the full authority of Amin. Amin wasn't a saint though, but many of the crimes he was accused of were tall tales, including cannibalism.

@pride_mount @TheCinesthetic He was no buffoon though the real Amin made it easy by brutalizing his people, even his close cabinet members. The problem with seizing power and not knowing how to use it for good is that you fumble, your people hate you and your enemies use that to eventually take you out.

Forest Whitaker went all in for The Last King of Scotland (2006), immersing himself in Idi Amin’s world by staying in character for months, learning Swahili & even adopting his diet, a transformation that earned him the Academy Award for Best Actor.

@Kianangih See, that's the same mentality many of you had during the 2024 finance Bill demos. When your claims are countered with real facts , you result to stupid ad hominems.. You are a small boy. Sit down!
