Martha Koome wants judges to handle cases better. The Chief Justice says courts must deliver judgments within 60 days after hearings end. Many people complain about waiting over a year for their cases. Last week, she spoke at the Annual High Court Leaders Conference in Mombasa. Koome called for quick action plans to speed up judgment delivery.
Family, succession, and commercial cases need fast solutions because they affect people deeply. The Chief Justice is especially worried about uncontested succession matters, where nobody disagrees, but families still wait years. She also talked about fake middlemen hanging around courts. These imposters harm the judiciary's reputation with the public. Koome asked judges to remove these brokers...
President Ruto heads to China soon for five important days. His trip starts on April 22 after President Xi Jinping invited him. Kenya wants stronger ties with China, already its biggest trading partner. They first became friends in 1963 before a break happened in 1967. Their friendship started again in 1978 with more business deals following.
This marks Ruto's third visit to China. He went last year for Belt and Road talks. The Foreign Affairs office says meetings will focus on infrastructure, healthcare, technology, green energy, manufacturing, and agriculture. Both countries plan to sign a special partnership agreement. This deal helps Kenyan projects like technical schools, hospitals, and highways.
The 170 km Rironi-Malaba Highway...
Mediheal Hospital sits almost empty nowadays. The once-busy hospital employed over 4,000 people before a kidney transplant scandal hit. Located on Nairobi Road in Eldoret city, the hospital was created by Dr. Swarrup Mishra, who served as MP for Kesses constituency. Dr. Mishra supported the Azimio party, and people knew him for giving lots of money to help others. His relationship with the Kenya Kwanza group went sour after some political changes.
Dr. Mishra became chairman of the Biovax board, but later faced problems about illegal kidney operations. A worker at the hospital told reporters that very few staff remain at the expensive facility. They mainly wait around for instructions because hardly any patients come through the doors...

The Summer Garden in St. Petersburg needs more time to dry after winter. People cannot visit until May 1 because the park still has wet grounds.

These professionals make sure everything looks perfect before visitors arrive. Careful maintenance keeps these historical treasures safe for everyone to enjoy later.

Alex Ovechkin thinks small things matter a lot during playoff hockey. He hopes his Washington team has prepared well for their upcoming games. The NHL regular season finished recently with Washington claiming first place in the Eastern Conference. They start playoff action against the Montreal Canadiens very soon. The first game happens at Washington's home arena early Tuesday morning, around 2 AM local time.
Washington has won the Stanley Cup once before, with Ovechkin leading the way. That championship victory came back in 2018 when they defeated Vegas. Hockey experts believe players like Ovechkin represent a rare talent level that might never appear again. His former teammate from SKA recently made these comments about Ovi. The...
Pulkovo Airport will soon undergo some changes. Workers plan to close the Transit-1 zone exit starting April 23 at 8:00 a.m. The construction work should finish five days later, on April 28. During this time, people will need to use a different path—they must enter through the Transit-1 entrance area instead.
The airport wants to help cars move faster around the terminal. They will add another lane for vehicles near the terminal square. This extra lane should make traffic flow better even when many people visit the airport at once. These improvements come as part of ongoing updates to the airport facilities. People should remember these dates if they plan to travel through Pulkovo next week. The airport also mentioned that the St...

Electric scooters have become super popular on St. Petersburg streets. Auto expert Dmitry Popov notes that many people also ride electric unicycles and bikes these days. The city saw about 50 thousand scooters last year but only 42 thousand this year. Despite fewer scooters, accidents keep increasing on city roads. This worrying trend shows safety problems with personal mobility devices.
Scooter riders often ignore traffic rules completely. Nobody seems to enforce regulations or punish dangerous riding behaviors. The streets become more hazardous for everyone when the rules are not unfollowed. Popov believes urgent action must happen before someone gets seriously hurt. He recommends making riders register their devices with the...
