Dear Kenya π°πͺ,

There are potholes and patches on the Thika Superhighway for the first time since Kibaki's launch in 2012.
We can definitely trust Chirchir's ministry to maintain cable cars.

A Meru son, Kevin Mugambi Gitari, is serving 3 years in a Saudi jail for transporting alcohol that wasnβt his.
He was a junior staffer at the Kenyan Embassy in Riyadh. On 16 June 2026, diplomats Linah Lumidi and Charles Oure bought the alcohol (allowed only for diplomats). They handed it to Kevin to transport in his car. When Saudi authorities asked the ambassador to confirm this, he refused. Kevin took the full fall.
There are receipts, CCTV of the handover, and a voice recording of the diplomats admitting to Kevinβs wife that the alcohol belonged to them.
Yet nothing has been done.
Why did the ambassador refuse to protect his own staff?
Why is a junior employee carrying the cross for diplomats?
Where is the PS for Diaspora Affairs while a Kenyan sits in a Saudi prison for someone elseβs drink?

I really don't know why the new Bomas of Kenya isn't as big of a scandal as Anglo-leasing or even NYS. That contract reads like a horror novel! What do you mean they're buying a single table at sh 151 million?! Parking software for 423m! And it's done by army, so "no auditing"!

The Murang'a County Assembly went to Gatare Forest and reported such severe tree-cutting that is was directly affecting water supply at Ndakaini. It is convenient to blame the rain, but we all know what is directly affecting water levels in this dam.

The US trafficking report on Kenya is out:
β’ Kenyan officials allegedly helped recruit over 1,000 Kenyan men to fight for Russia.
β’ More than 10% of government officials reportedly own recruitment agencies.
β’ Embassy officials in Saudi Arabia were accused of demanding money or sex from women trying to escape abusive employers.
β’ At least 274 Kenyan workers, mostly women, died in Saudi Arabia in five years.
In summary, we are being trafficked by our own government.
Kenya deserves better leadership

Google announcing that schools banning AI will also lose access to Google Search is a pretty good opportunity to teach the next generation that Google isnβt the internet and that there are plenty of alternatives to its platforms. Maybe itβs time schools started exploring them.

In 1974 Mobutu used more than $10 million to organize and finance the Rumble in the Jungle heavy-weight boxing match between Mohammed Ali and George Foreman at Stade du 20 Mai.
The event was attended by some 60,000 people which gave Mobutu a perfect propaganda opportunity to entrench himself and his rule.
54 years later, Ruto, often called Mobutu ya Kilgoris has also decided to pick from the same playbook, using more than kshs 790 million to host an inaugural friendly football game in Talanta Stadium Nairobi between Bayern Munich and Ajax.
Like Mobutu, Ruto is also expected to take advantage of that event and use it as a propaganda platform and tool to try cleaning his soiled image and reputation of his failed presidency.
The more things change, the more they remain the same.

The cost of Bomas Convention Centre, AN ENTERTAINMENT COMPLEX, has risen from an initial KSh31.7 billion to KSh45.1 billion, an increase of KSh13.4 billion, or about 42%.
The law limits contract price increases through variations to 25% of the original contract price. Was this increase within the legal limit? Who approved it, and what justified it?
Meanwhile, the Universities Fund faces a KSh16.2B shortfall for scholarships in FY2026/27, while HELB has a further KSh55.8B funding gap for student loans. The additional KSh13.4B at Bomas alone could cover most of the Universities Fundβs scholarship shortfall.
Can we get our priorities right!! Students should not be struggling to access education while billions are committed to an entertainment complex.
Also publish the Bomas contracts.

That's because William Ruto has entered the competition through a company that recently acquired Zuku and Wananchi Group.
Axian Telecom (operating as Yas Group) is owned by Hassanein Hiridjee and his family's Madagascar-based conglomerate, the Axian Group. Hassanein Hiridjee partnered with Rostam Aziz to acquire and expand major telecommunication and digital infrastructure assets in East Africa.
In Kenya, Ruto invited his friend Rostam Aziz and Pikap Kutit proxies to the table and they're currently expanding, modernizing and upgrading former Zuku infrastructure around the country, deploying ADSS cables. Just ask property developers in Nairobi about the guerilla war currently going on between internet service providers.
In Kenya, Ruto initiated Axian Telecom takeover of Zuku, through Axian AXIAN Telecom Fibre Ltd (Yas), which recently bought a 99.63% controlling equity stake in Wananchi Group Holdings Ltd, the previous owners of consumer broadband brand Zuku and enterprise link Simbanet
The Zuku acquisition enables Axian Telecom to deploy its broadband brand, "Yas," to unify its mobile, fintech, and fiber networks across Kenya, Tanzania, Uganda, and Malawi. They're planning to launch an enhanced, "competitive" offer in the Kenyan market in the coming future.
Safaricom has seen through this plan and had now fashioned this new business warfare using, ironically, Zuku' s former business model called the "the tripple play", which integrated TV, on-net Calls and fibre/ Internet package.
Does the name "Rostam Aziz" ring a bell?
He's the Tanzanian billionaire tycoon who owns MIC Tanzania PLC (which operated Tigo and Zantel through a strategic consortium with AXIAN Telecom and quickly rebranded as Yas Tanzania). Aziz serves as the Chairman of the local board.
President William Ruto personally commissioned Rostam Aziziβs multi-billion-shilling Taifa Gas plant in Mombasaβs Dongo Kundu Special Economic Zone in February 2023.
Rostam Azizi recently further expanded his influence in Kenya by acquiring a 54.08% controlling stake in the Nation Media Group through Taarifa Ltd.
And since you're still reading, presumably:
1. Ponder why there's continued harvesting of trees from Kenyan forests?
2. Why are some Internet service providers in Kenya no longer lease infrastructure from Kenya Power to run fiber optic cables on utility poles?
3. Why are some counties, like Nairobi, not interested in County Wayleave enforcement inv over wayleave fees and missing county approvals?
4. Who will eventually retire happily at the Intona Ranch in Kilgoris after vigorously promoting and budgeting public funds to launch and expand ICT Hubs and Last Mile Internet Connection under the Digital Superhighway program across the country?
And now that you're here, why did the Kenyan High Court nullify President William Rutoβs administration's sale of a 15% government stake in Safaricom Plc to Vodacom Group Ltd., ruling the transaction unconstitutional and ordering the shares returned to the state?
