Good morning. Thanks God its friday

Former President Uhuru Kenyatta and Wiper Patriotic Front (WFP) leader Kalonzo Musyoka held a crisis meeting to resolve the internal wrangles rocking the ‘United’ Alternative Government.

At the heart of the internal fight is the feeling by a section of Principals of the Opposition that Democracy for Citizens Party (DCP) leader Rigahti Gachagua is overbearing and bullish following his calls on political parties to dissolve and join his party.

They also think he is an impediment to their chances of picking a presidential candidate. #kalonzo

Taifa Gas is building a Sh16 billion cooking gas terminal in Mombasa that is now 80% complete.

Once finished, it will be the largest LPG terminal in East Africa and will store 30,000 to 45,000 tonnes of cooking gas, doubling Kenya's LPG storage capacity.

REVEALED: President William Ruto has reportedly been sending emissaries to retired President Uhuru Muigai Kenyatta in an effort to mend their relationship following the Ol Kalou by-election.

According to sources familiar with the matter, the outreach is being driven by growing concern within the President's camp over the rising political influence of former Deputy President Rigathi Gachagua across the Mt. Kenya region. The sources claim that State House fears the shifting political landscape could significantly impact President Ruto's support base in the region ahead of the 2027 General Election.

The same sources further allege that former President Uhuru Kenyatta has shown little interest in the reconciliation efforts. They claim he remains dissatisfied with the current administration and continues to stand by the position he took before the 2022 General Election, when he publicly urged Kenyans not to support William Ruto's presidential bid.

According to the sources, Uhuru also remains aggrieved by what he perceives as the treatment directed at him and members of his family after he left office, despite his status as a former Head of State. The sources say these grievances have made any reconciliation efforts increasingly difficult. #Elections2027 #Nairobi

It's been 5 years since I first got arrested. Time really flies. I've never really shared my story to anyone except my family who knows it.

Let's go back,

I was in campus, a very focused girl, classes attendance check, performance check, everything I was doing looking back, I was intentional. Then one day, I got arrested, it first didn't look like an arrest, I was just requested to go write a statement. The moment I arrived at the DCI offices, they confiscated my property, I had school books, notebooks, laptops, girlish stuff, I remember huyo msee akinishow, "Leo utakuwa mgeni wetu" , I was like you are arresting me? Yeah, guys I cried, nililia nikalia, the officers had to kunibembeleza, they bought me kuku, yoghurt, milk, Before I got booked to the police cells😭. I didn't stop crying, after wameandika OB, nkapelekwa ladies cell. I was alone, it was a Friday, 2nd June, I didn't call anyone, because I didn't even know the reason for my arrest, why, ... Some ladies later were brought in with kids, I slept on cold concrete floor for the first time in my life. The next day, on Saturday, around 11am, nmekujiwa na DCI officers WA another county, jurisdiction so I was being transferred, guys they came with 5 land cruisers , wakifika wanakuta ni tuschana tudogo,4 had to go on other errands, we travelled with one. Tukifika, I had to call my parents, I knew they'd skin me, but Sasa what do I do,

My mum was mad at me. My dad, told me calm down, we'll be there tomorrow.

My dad and uncle travelled for like 12hrs, walifika around 8pm. They hugged me, comforted me, asked me why I was arrested, I literally had no clue, had to wait till Monday the next day, nipelekwe court nijue (I just knew money was involved) I gave my folks access to everything my accounts,, work, everything, ndio waweze kuaccess anything just Incase.

The next day, Mimi napelekwa court kama VIP, land cruiser, I got escort, nkifika court my case file, haiko ready, they've not even prepared charges against me, so nkarudishwa cell tena😭, ooh my, nlikuwa nalala kwa floor, my whole body was aching, hakuna kuoga, no washroom ni kibucket tu hapo corner, watu wakishikwa wanajisaidia hapo😭😭, it was gross, cases were many, young girls wameenda kuishi na boyfriends wazazi wanawaleta station, wakifika wanabomolewa na maaskari ni manduru, wamama wa chama, mpesa sijui kuliibiwa pesa, shosho alipoteza mtoto, nani walipigana,

On Tuesday, nkaenda court, ndio Sasa naskia ati I stole 1.2 million😭, I conspired , I handled the money, I transacted. (Did I have any idea, not at all😭) Nikakataa mashtaka, cash bail ilikuwa 500k , wooooiii Jehovah... My folks got an idea of what was happening, my details had been like fraudulently used, hivo ndio nkashikwa. (I had issues with my phone at the time, when theft was happening, nlikuwa natafuta tu katululu, so I didn't get notifications on my phone of it happening whatsoever, the theft happened like a month earlier, nkiwa natumia WhatsApp web to go to class)

I was taken back to station, then processed for remand immediately, covid was a thing back then, tukapelekwa hosi na tugari, they poked my nose,then we headed to female's prison. My parents assured me, they'd pay the bail and come for me.

I'd not showered for days, when I got arrested I was on my menses, (I suppose I smelled like a goat juu wueeh)

Kufika Women's prison,

Msee wueeh, wakachukua tu belongings twangu, then wrote all of them down, after that, we moved to the next section,tell me why, tuliambiwa tutor nguo zote😭😭 and then you do the star jump kama mara kumi, and cough while your legs were apart😭😭, then tukapewa zile tu uniforms za zebra , you only wear panty and bra huko ndani, haupewi sweater. Then you get sandals, afterwards, we requested to shower, I was happy at least I could eat, shower and get a place to sleep (I started missing my crib and the little things I didn't thing would be privileges)..I had braids on, nkaambiwa nizibomoe, nishuke hizi tulines. Tukioga ikafika masaa ya supper, supper ni 4pm, those askaris 😭 , they are vulgar , I almost got beaten on day one , (I was 20 years old then, weight ni 45kgs)

One of the most frustrating practices in our education system is the school trip business. Every term, parents are hit with demands to pay thousands of shillings for mandatory school trips. And now, you can't imagine where the kids are being taken in the name of a trip.

UK announces cancellation of its BATUK training activities in Kenya; embassy cites delays in renewal of required licenses from government, says training moved elsewhere.

Kipsigis is the largest tribe in Kalenjin. They are 1.9 M , Nandi is 1M .

Ruto is Nandi not kipsigis, in Emurua Dikirr Rigathi Gachagua got 40 % of the kipsigis votes, that is huge considering its solid ground of kasongo.

Last week, a section of Kipsigis found their way to Wamunyoro residence.

They told Gachagua their grievances about constant Angata Baragoi attacks by Bandits ,and cattle Rustlers ; Land injustices.

Fact: Even if Ruto talks to Gachagua, it is will not help him. Infact, Wamunyoro knows that speaking to Ruto will kill his influence in mlima overnight.

He cannot even attempt to visit statehouse.

However, the country still has 7,200 US-dollar millionaires (worth at least Sh129 million).
