Victor Odhiambo

The man seated in front of Suba North MP Millie Odhiambo is Mr. Opiyo, a son of Yokia Village in Mfangano Island.
He was once married to Millie before life took them down different paths, and she later found love with Mabona.
For Opiyo, however, the years that followed were marked by immense pain. He reportedly suffered a severe mental breakdown after battling deep depression, a heartbreaking reminder that while some people move on and rebuild, others silently carry burdens that few ever see. Sometimes the deepest battles are fought behind closed doors, and a little compassion can go a long way.

Two people have been shot and wounded in Gem Ramula, Siaya County by GSU following a second attempt by Shanta Gold to do illegal displacement.

It's reported that the GSU officers are breaking into homesteads and forcefully evicting villagers from their ancestral lands despite a court order stopping the eviction.

And Luo leaders are busy shouting Tutam nonsense.

Of what benefit is being in government if you can’t have that same government stop maiming and killing your people?
Akina Oburu should be ashamed of themselves.

Mass Moroccan Migrant Surge Overwhelms Spain's Ceuta Enclave
Tens of thousands of Moroccan migrants crossed into Spain's North African enclave of Ceuta over the past day, leading to drownings, border clashes, and military deployment.

Spanish and Moroccan efforts returned about 25,000 to 40,000 within 24 hours, but the sudden influx sparked alarm.

European nations like Italy suspended Schengen free movement with Spain, Denmark called for Spain's full suspension, and France added border controls while expressing solidarity. #Spain #Morocco

13 people have been confirmed dead following a major earthquake that occurred in the Kumamoto region of Japan.
Rescue operations are ongoing.

There was drama early this morning as a crowd from Kamukunji and Starehe sub-counties was chased away by military police outside State House, Nairobi.

The group claims they were mobilized yesterday to attend a meeting at State House, where they were allegedly promised a KSh 10,000 token each after submitting their names, ID numbers, and phone numbers.

Upon arriving at the gate at dawn, they were turned away by security forces who informed them that no such meeting was scheduled.

Kalonzo might be the spoiler

He will demand to be the presidential runner for the opposition. They will refuse and offer him Deputy President

He will refuse and Ruto may offer him DP which if he accepts may tilt the numbers on that direction #Elections2027

Furious Mbadi: Luos, if there is an election that we should cast as many ballots as possible without sleeping, is that of 2027, in order to elect Ruto with overwhelming number of votes that we never even cast for Raila.

2027 election will be for us to express our anger and punish the Kikuyus; therefore, we should cast our votes with rage. They want to disrespect us when they say their population is higher than that of us Luos.

You hear Gachagua saying that what caused a rift between him and Ruto is that he found Raila at State House. That it is an abomination when a Luo enters State House. How do we Luos look like, that when Gachagua saw Raila, he saw Satan?

That is why we must show these Kikuyus that we are also people, and we never applied to be Kenyans. Luos came to Kenya by right, we are in Kenya by birth, and we'll live in Kenya and we can also produce a president #Elections2027
