Former senator Cleophas Malala says Rigathi Gachagua remains Kenya's real Deputy President after Friday's court decision. He praised the ruling that found Deputy Chief Justice Philomena Mwilu broke rules when she picked three judges for Gachagua's case. The appeals court said only the Chief Justice can choose judges for such matters. Malala stressed that earlier court orders stopping the impeachment process stay active. These orders also prevented Interior Cabinet Secretary Kithure Kindiki from taking over as deputy president.
The appeals court judges Daniel Musinga, Mumbi Ngugi, and Francis Tuiyott decided that judge assignments belong only to the Chief Justice. Gachagua's lawyers had fought Mwilu's decision to send files to Judges...
UDA plans to break up with Senator Gloria Orwoba because she seems disloyal to the party. Party Treasurer Japheth Nyakundi said they want her gone after she sent a message to him and UDA Majority Whip Sylvanus Osoro, saying the Gusii Community watches them. Nyakundi told her loyalty matters most in politics, but she failed that test. He wished her luck with her new party leader.
The party called Orwoba to face discipline for hanging out with people who oppose UDA. They listed three bad actions - she welcomed former Interior Cabinet Secretary Fred Matiang'i at the airport, attended his homecoming party, and criticized a government work program on the radio. The party claims these actions show she supports another political group instead...
The Cheluget family agreed to sell their land to help settle families living there. Nancy Kirui spoke for the family at a news conference, saying they support President Ruto's plan. They talked with government officials about selling their 5800-acre property in Narok South. The late Isaiah Cheluget tried to fix this problem before he died in 2017. His family wants peace.
Kirui said a court named four legal handlers of the estate back in 2018. She warned people not to believe anyone else claiming to speak for the family. President Ruto told locals he would buy the land for them during his visit to Sogoo. He ordered officials to finish the deal fast. About 600 people moved onto the land around 1999.
These settlers divided the land...
Kibos Sugar took over Chemelil Sugar Company after winning a lease deal announced Friday through Agriculture Cabinet Secretary Mutahi Kagwe. Kibos Director Jassi Chatthe stepped into his role Saturday morning at the struggling mill. He sat down with staff and farmers to map out plans for bringing the troubled factory back to life. Workers and farmers celebrated the change with high hopes for better days ahead.
Local growers expect on-time payments and renewed production under the new management. Many farm families welcomed the government decision to lease failing sugar factories to private operators. They see this move as key to breathing life back into the area economy. The factory had suffered through years of money problems before...
Heavy traffic jams clogged the A8 highway between Kariandusi and Nakuru overnight because drivers kept overlapping lanes. The Kenya National Highways Authority blamed driver misbehavior for the mess. Their teams are working with police to fix the problem, but need motorists to stop cutting lines.
Travelers can find other ways around the jam until traffic returns to normal. The authority suggests using either the Gilgil-Olkalou-Dundori-Lanet road or the Flyover-Njambini-Olkalou-Dundori-Lanet path. The A8 connects Nairobi to Nakuru and western Kenya. This spot often backs up during busy travel times.
Officials haven't said when the jam might clear up completely. Traffic officers remain on site, helping drivers through the congestion...
UDA party leaders ordered Senator Orwoba to answer for three rule breaks. They dislike her airport greeting for the old cabinet man, Matiangi. Her visit to his stadium party made them mad. They hate her radio talk against the government's work plans. The party says she shows love to other groups instead of the UDA.
She must visit the party offices on May 16 at nine a.m. to explain herself. Leaders might push her out if she fails to give good reasons. Orwoba has stayed quiet about these claims all day today. Matiangi came back from his time away with a big party speech. He wants the president's job next time voting happens.
Energy leader says money given to local places helps power up homes. PS Wachira visited Thika, where he saw new electric lines light up Matathia village. This program lets lawmakers give five million shillings, which the energy office matches with another five million. The partnership brought power to about 200 families who lived without electricity before. Many areas once called dark cities can finally run fridges, lights, and TVs after the sun goes down.
Shop owner Catherine Wairimu is happy her store can stay open later with lights. She thanked officials for keeping promises about bringing power to rural homes. The energy office plans to connect 1,750 houses this year alone across Kenya. Officials asked people not to steal or break...
MP Salasya says nobody from UDA pays him for his run at president. He calls these rumors fake talk from scared people who see his growing fame. No money comes to him from the State House or any officials. He wants voters to know their local funds stay safe, and all projects are easy to find. Local schools, students, and hospitals can tell how he helps them without stealing cash.
He claims a team of regular citizens backs his plans for change. His success comes from smart plans and his charm rather than deep pockets. The lawmaker told social media followers last month that he thought hard before deciding to run. He asked young people, women, workers, and business owners to walk with him toward a better Kenya. The 35-year-old promises to...
Raila told party leader Sifuna to ease up on attacking President Ruto. He promised support for ODM members who joined the government team. Raila mentioned a written deal with Kenya Kwanza that contains ten key points. He asked party members to stay strong together despite sometimes having different views. He believes helping the four ODM Cabinet leaders succeed would make the party look better.
Raila spoke after Treasury head Mbadi requested backing from fellow party members. Mbadi said he works hard because he found the money system broken. He wants to show voters what ODM leaders can do when given power. Mbadi reminded Sifuna that his success matters for the party's image before the next election. Sifuna often speaks against the...
