@citizentvkenya It is tragic that leaders in Kenya react when innocent beings have died. Parents pay for security in schools. It's heartbreaking that learners have to be locked in grilled hostels like criminals in high security prisons. Why is it hard to obey rules

Kenya Senate approves a new bill that could give a permanent green light for corruption. Conservation and Management Bill eases the process for highways, power lines & private construction to cut directly through protected public forests & water towers. They call it “development”

William Samoei Ruto, PhD@WilliamsRuto·
We are fully aware of the frustration, pain and burden that families, businesses, farmers and transporters have endured due to rising fuel prices over the past few weeks. The truth is this: Kenya is facing the effects of a global fuel crisis caused by the ongoing conflict in the Middle East. This challenge is not unique to Kenya. Across the world, countries are grappling with rising fuel prices, supply shortages and disruptions in the global supply chain. Since the beginning of this crisis, we have responded decisively to cushion Kenyans from high fuel prices and to ensure the country continues to enjoy a stable and uninterrupted fuel supply under the Government-to-Government framework. In the April-May and May-June pricing cycles, the Government has spent KSh28.19 billion on fuel price support through direct stabilisation measures and Value Added Tax (VAT) relief of 8 per cent, protecting millions of Kenyans from even greater hardship. Without Government intervention during this period, Super Petrol would retail at KSh230 a litre instead of the current KSh214. Diesel would retail at KSh277 instead of KSh232, while kerosene would retail at KSh270 instead of KSh191. To further cushion Kenyans, I have directed a KSh10 reduction for diesel in the June-July pricing cycle. We call on Kenyans to remain patient as we navigate this crisis. Let us not allow irresponsible political opportunists to politicise a crisis that is global in nature. Together, we shall overcome these challenges. Held talks with transport stakeholders at State House Mombasa and agreed on a series of reforms to address concerns in the transport sector, including the possibility of a temporary relief on lending terms for the transport sector, insurance claims and regulations on minimum fares for digital taxis, as well as allowing the continued use of artwork and graffiti on matatus.

Ruto comes back & chooses to speak about one death, not 12 who were shot dead by police, not the children raped & killed, not unaffordable fuel prices. He also had time to call opposition leaders stupid & tribal. Who advises Ruto

@joywanjaz @HarvardChanSPH Congratulations Joy. A great leap ahead in terms of audience based communication. Not the usual 'trouble in ODM, UDA' politics headlines every day. There exists good stories outside politics.

@tv47digital @Stan_Subru If MPs had the courage of this man-who has used a minute to stand with millions of Kenyans-they could have not allowed this govt to run roughshod on the electorate. But they are selfish & only think about themselves, families & cronies

Caroline Wattimah delivered the sentence after finding the accused guilty of the offence committed on diverse dates between 21/10/24 and 10/11/24 at Kamagut Area, Kamagut Location, Turbo Sub-County within Uasin Gishu County. During the trial, the victim testified that the accused, who was her mother’s boyfriend, defiled her in her mother’s bed. She further informed the court that the accused threatened her against disclosing the incident, warning that he would “pour glue into her mouth” if she told anyone. In sentencing submissions, the Director of Public Prosecutions, through Prosecution Counsel Fredrick Rapando, urged the court to apply the law and impose the mandatory life sentence. The prosecution further prayed that the accused be declared a dangerous sexual offender and that the victim be granted access to treatment and psychosocial support. The court concurred with the prosecution’s submissions, declared the accused a dangerous sexual offender, and directed that the victim be accorded access to medication and psychosocial support services. The matter was prosecuted by Lilian Mogoi (PPC) and Fredrick Rapando (PC). #HakiNaUsawa

Ruto's govt doesn't care about the electorate. All Kenyans are suffering about high cost of living. Last month, the govt increased fuel by Ksh40, today it has increased fuel by Ksh46. Then there are taxes in the 2026/27 Finance Bill. Resist

@Safaricom_Care , please save your customers in the entire Mirere area of Koyonzo, Matungu in Kakamega. Your network there is terrible. You can't receive or make calls, or use mpesa. A booster at Mirere market might do the trick

@BenjiNdolo Nyama has nothing to do with heart attacks. My grandmother ate it daily and she lived for 100 years. Maasai eat meat daily yet they are the last people you can get in a hospital. Ethiopians eat raw meat, yet they live longer & have fewer heart attacks

Dr Gikonyo says between 1970 and 1980 he saw only 3 heart attacks, nowadays he sees that daily. Let me remind him, in those days diet was githeri, mukimo, nyama rarely, sukuma and spinach. Fries were maybe once a year. Only one place sold pizza in Kenya, Pizza Garden. Diet

@MKMadoka_ Standard Media Group should sue you. These are not the contents of the original story. Why do some bloggers revel in wishing others bad luck or even death. When you post lies, do you sit alone & ponder about its consequences. Shame on you
