Hehe, hio 1969 oath ilikuwa serious hivi for Murima Ngubus? In 2026, they still hate Njaruos 😅😅 hii chuki ata Israel haina na Warabu, granted if they had their way, Luo nyanza and western would be same category as NFD and Asals. Raila was a ruse all along, his death has shown
Most of Ruto's CSs were in America, especially those he brought from ODM. I think they never travelled when they were with Raila - Gachagua

This is not even tribalism anymore. Hii yenu sasa imezidi
Its crazy that Dangote is importing machinery for a project with no visible document. No Environmental impact Assessment, No approval from the County Assembly , No single document for the construction plans. The construction company has no licence in Kenya.

I have seen some people criticising the govt for "building houses instead of industries" and at the same time criticising the government for allowing Dangote to build a mega oil refinery in Lamu. Politics!

I remember Igathe resigning as soon as he could after he won the deputy governor seat. Six months under Sonko and he quit, after the grind of working under a boss with a totally different work ethic. Ruto under Uhuru must have felt similar—but the stakes were infinitely higher.

🚨When Gianni Infantino was UEFA general secretary, he helped broker settlement deals that let Manchester City and PSG avoid a possible Champions League ban over FFP breaches. Instead, they each received €20m fines.

500MW for himself and you think Dangote isn’t in Kenya to stay? Dangote will likely invest much more in Kenya than even in Nigeria in the longterm
Our power plant will be very big but Lamu’s will be double producing 1,000 MW in Lamu and selling 500 MW to Kenya’s government - Aliko Dangote

From this hardcore tangible development on one side to constitutionalism and rule of law and chickens cant live on the 12th floor on the other side is really underwhelming. One is selling employment and development the other rules and regulations and fidelity to a booklet😭

The GoK has really cooked with this refinery and power plant. This might just be President Ruto’s greatest legacy.

How much will Dangote’s “contribution” to Ruto’s re-election be—$100m? $200m? 😅 A $20B project needs five uninterrupted years of political stability to build. Who’s caving to the almighty dollar while biding their time for 2032?
As the country prepares for the development of the Ksh 2 trillion Dangote East Africa Refinery project, the Port of Lamu welcomed MV Da Yang carrying heavy construction materials that will be utilized in the project. Laden with 2,930 metric tons of heavy machinery, the arrival of MV Da Yang sets the stage for the anticipated groundbreaking ceremony for the construction of the first ever oil refinery north of Kenya planned for next week. The refinery will process crude oil from Lokichar in Turkana County, and other parts of East and southern Africa and beyond, before supplying refined petroleum products to regional markets. The port of Lamu will play a central role through supporting marine operations and handling petroleum tankers thereby boosting the Port’s operations. Kenya Ports Authority PLC Chief Executive Officer Captain William Ruto welcomed the maiden vessel and successfully brought it alongside before presenting a certificate of first call and a plaque to the vessel’s master Captain Wang Shengli. Captain Ruto said the vessel’s arrival was significant to the refinery project and demonstrated the Government’s commitment to ensuring its success. “The arrival of this vessel is very critical and shows the Government’s commitment to ensuring this project succeeds. It will be a game changer for the entire region,” said Captain Ruto. He assured shipping partners and customers that the Port of Lamu is fully prepared to handle current and future cargo volumes, with KPA committed to efficient vessel turnaround, seamless cargo operations and customer-focused services that meet international standards.

Eldoret finally will have a world class stadium, the home of champions should build an athletic museum as well close by.
This morning, I inspected the progress of the ongoing upgrade works at the Kipchoge Keino Stadium in Eldoret, Uasin Gishu County, being undertaken under the supervision of the Ministry of Defence ahead of the 20th October Mashujaa Day celebrations, which will be jointly hosted by Uasin Gishu, Nandi and Elgeyo Marakwet Counties. Preparations for this year’s Mashujaa Day celebrations in Eldoret are gathering pace, with the Ministry of Defence stepping up oversight of the ongoing works, which now stand at 69% complete, with key components of the stadium taking shape. The inspection provided an opportunity to assess progress on the ground, address emerging challenges and reaffirm the Ministry’s commitment to ensuring that the facility is delivered to the required standards and within the set timelines. As the countdown to Mashujaa Day continues, we remain focused on delivering a modern sporting facility that will serve not only as the venue for this year’s national celebrations, but also as a lasting legacy for the people of the region and the country at large. I was accompanied by the Chief of Special Projects at Defence Headquarters, Brigadier Titus Sokobe.

Kenya will probably consume 12 million tonnes this year, as this 1 million tonnes figure is consumption for only July. For perspective, that's more than Rwanda consumes in a year and about ⅕ Uganda's annual consumption of 4.5 to 5 million tonnes. TZ does 9.4 million tonnes p.a
Kenya’s cement consumption crossed the one-million-tonne mark for the first time in July 2026. Consumption reached 1 million tonnes, up 13.5% from 888,000 tonnes a year earlier
