Sometimes, beyond the responsibility to your masters, it is your kids, your generation, that carries the shame of your actions. What is happening in Gaza, in Lebanon, is nothing but evil... you carry the burden as an individual.

It’s not ideal, @SingoeiAKorir, that Kenya is cementing its reputation as the sort of place where foreign agents kidnap people at will — from South Sudan, to Türkiye, to Uganda.

Dr. Kizza Besigye brought to the Court Martial in Makindye, where he is set to be arraigned. His wife, Winnie Byanyima, says he was kidnapped in neighbouring Kenya and forcefully returned to Uganda. 📸 @SwaibuIbrahim

These two headlines clearly capture how a goverment that rode on a hustler ( mwananchi ) narrative got its priorities all wrong. How can we be at public hearings to impeach a Deputy President when public health and social insurance is in shambles ? once again I make it clear ,…

The High Court has thrown out the Privatisation Act, 2023 on the grounds of being unconstitutional & therefore null & void. Again, the question of public participation is at the core of this nullification. It's an extremely huge development especially with regard to Kenya's…
