“His abduction is directly linked to a case at the Makadara Law Courts, where he complained against known NIS, ATPU and military intelligence officers. These officers had earlier indicated that they would interfere with the matter, but they have now opted to abduct him,” — Lawyer Alex Kubo, after reporting the alleged abduction of lawyer Ahmed by Kenyan police.

An Advocate, Abshir Ahmedsadak Abdi was abducted on 1/11/26 along Muchai Drive. His motor vehicle was recovered on the same road. The incident was at Kilimani Police Station - 55/1/11/2026 . Reports from people who witnessed the incident, indicate he was pursued by 2 motor vehicles, a Prado TX and a double cab. The occupants of those vehicles had guns and 2 were in what seemed like police uniform and bullet proof vests. The abduction is linked to a case he’s involved in against some senior police officers & he’s been subjected to various intimidation tactics prior to this incident. An attack against an Advocate is an attack on the administration of justice and due process of law. The involvement of police in extra judicial abductions continue to prevail despite repeated assurances that they will end. The police cannot behave as if the life of a Kenyan doesn’t matter. They are not above the law. @IG_NPS @kipmurkomen @ray_omollo intervene and urgently release our colleague from your agents.

The moment this was announced it was easy to see it wouldn’t take place. There was bound to be too many legitimate questions about the deal. What is the cost, who is shouldering it, what value does it add to our local sporting activities, would local teams have been paid if they were to curtain raise? Who made the decision? If it was the President? If it was the President, in what official capacity did he do this yet there’s a sports ministry?
What are your thoughts on this?

Edwin Sifuna: We heard the president was going to make a very important announcement and because he was in Russia, some of us were hoping that he was going to announce that he has secured release of more than 1,000 Kenyans lured to fight in the Russian-Ukrainian war, instead he told us that some 2 European teams are coming to Nairobi to play a football match

The Constitution is not President Ruto’s suggestion box or a buffet where he picks what he likes and leaves what he doesn’t. The very Constitution he is sworn to uphold is what provides the framework for his election and his authority to govern. So why should its other provisions suddenly become optional? That same Constitution also guarantees citizens’ rights, demands respect for the rule of law, requires gender representation, and sets limits on presidential power. If the Constitution is valid enough to make you president, it is valid enough to tell you what you cannot do as President. You cant claim its authority while treating its obligations as optional!
Any person holding themselves out as a Cabinet Secretary is engaged in a coup against the Constitution. Starting today, any engagements or agreements executed by the current CS are illegal and void. Any public expenditure incurred by them is illegal and liable to a claim for recovery. Members of the public should be wary of dealings with the government and its cabinet entities, as they cannot claim ignorance as to it’s illegality. The Cabinet is unconstitutional and in light of our laws cannot exercise any functional authority on behalf of the Kenyan.

The issue of voter apathy cannot arise. The agenda is a single candidate to remove the seating President. It’s not about the popularity of the proposed candidate. The aim is one. Removal of the current president
If the opposition chooses to give the presidential ticket to Stephen Kalonzo Musyoka, I see one major problem ahead. Voter apathy. Even me I cannot wake up to go and vote for a guy who has been in leadership position many years before I was born. For those new to the idea, voter apathy means a lack of interest or enthusiasm among eligible voters to take part in an election. These are people who are registered to vote but decide not to get up and cast their ballots. Kalonzo is, for many young voters, simply uninspiring. That could be a serious political setback in 2027. People do not want to wake up early, stand in line for hours, and vote for Kalonzo Musyoka. They want a new face on the ballot. So far the name that seems to be connecting with some of them is Edwin Watenya Sifuna. Politics is about numbers, but it is also about excitement, energy, and the ability to make people feel that their vote matters. You can have the best political machinery in the country, but if the people who are supposed to turn up on election day stay at home, the result will be clear. Then there is Ndindi Nyoro. I have serious doubts about his political consistency. His apparent indecision and his absence during crucial parliamentary votes, including the impeachment of Rigathi Gachagua and the latest Finance Bill debate, raise questions about where he truly stands when the pressure is on. People who sit on the fence are dangerous in politics. When the storm comes, you need to know who will stand with you and who will be looking for the safest place. I would not put my political trust in someone whose position appears to shift when the wind changes. Even the Bible has a word for this kind of politics. In Revelation 3:16, Jesus says of the lukewarm, “So because you are lukewarm, neither hot nor cold, I am about to spit you out of my mouth.” Those are strong words. Ultimately, the opposition needs more than a name that can unite politicians. It needs a candidate who can move the needle, excite young voters, and get people out of their houses on election day. Because when it comes to elections, you can lead a horse to water, but you cannot make it drink. And in 2027, the opposition cannot afford to nominate a candidate who leaves millions of voters asking, “Why should I bother waking up to vote?” That is how voter apathy becomes the opposition’s Achilles’ heel.

This post demonstrates need to create a more robust and integrated system to curb illegal developments. It should not be easy to scam public authorities and take advantage of unsuspecting members of the public to believe a project has the necessary approvals.
I have seen some people peddling a fake approval document alleging that the Eastleigh development was approved. It is telling that this is the same document that the Eastleigh developer used to get NCA approval. They allege that the development was approved in January of 2024. This is not true. The application for development as shown below was made in November of 2024, it could not have been approved in February of the same year. Also, there is a difference between a change of user approval and a development approval. The developer applied for change of use from residential to residential & commercial in August of 2024. Change of user was approved in October of 2024. Development approval has never been granted. The developer went on to build with impunity and without building approvals despite enforcement action by the county and arrests.

Bunge is insufferable. Sec 39(1G) was already declared invalid in 2018 because it subordinated live-streamed results to manually transmitted ones - Katiba case Para 98 How could it retain an invalid provision? What was needed was amendment that gives primacy to live-streaming.

There is something fundamentally wrong with our built environment. From approval, inspection and certification. Several tragedies and zero lessons learnt. Tough statements but no tangible long term solutions. Greed and insane profit margins have clouded public safety considerations. Unfortunately it appears that the lives of citizens don’t matter

Did State Corporations buy shares in Kenya Pipeline IPO to hold them for Aliko Dangote? If this is proven directly or through circumstantial evidence, it will violate every applicable provision of the Constitution, Statutes & established law. State institutions cannot be proxies for individuals. As over Kshs. 42B of public money was involved, Kenyans deserve the whole truth. In the US, the judicial system has developed the law called “facading”, where companies & its Directors are held criminally liable for financial engineering & manipulating the capital markets.

Same script as the Safaricom shares. Acquisition just before dividends are paid. Why would public entities buy shares and sale to undisclosed investors just before they earn dividends from the initial investment? Utter misuse of public resources
We got a few details from President Ruto on Monday’s Kenya Pipeline KES 42.5B mysterious block transaction: —He confirmed that private investors acquired a 25% stake in Kenya Pipeline Company from public entities, describing the transaction as part of efforts to mobilise private capital for strategic infrastructure. —We still do not know the identities of the buyers or the selling public entities.

Capital Markets regulations world over are intended at transparency and disclosure. You have to ask yourself some questions over this transaction. Who buys shares and sells before making a gain on investment? Who is able to buy shares of such value?
$KPC Kenya Pipeline Company Block Trade on October 19th, 2026 — 4.5B shares worth KES 42.5B changed hands through the NSE Block Board, equivalent to ~25% of KPC's total issued shares. — KPC accounted for 99.62% of NSE equity turnover, which reached KES 42.7B, compared to KES 512.5M in the previous session. — Total NSE trading volume reached 4.55B shares, compared to 10.3M shares previously. — Foreign purchases and sales in KPC were both recorded at 0.0%, indicating a domestic transaction. — KPC closed at KES 9.02, up 0.22%. — The identities of the buyer and seller have not been disclosed.
