The Gachagua judgment is a political decision at best as it is legally absurd. The Constitution expressly provides that any decision in violation of rights void. The effect of impeachment is that the person cannot hold public office. So how does a decision in violation of rights for which the Court has awarded damages operate as a bar to running for office. Those are judicial gymnastics that reflect a captured court

Belio Kipsang ought to wake up and smell the coffee. You have to handle this generation by understanding their unique thinking. Should they burn all the schools before he gets the message that a break is good for everyone!! In the meantime it would help if the schools received capitation in time to mitigate the challenges schools are currently going through!!

Who will succeed the Court of Appeal President, Hon Daniel Musinga and why? 🫆Elections set for June 22, 2026 vote by Court of Appeal’s 41 judges 🫆Winner needs 50% of votes cast; if no candidate hits 21 votes, a run-off between top two 🫆Justice Wanjiru Karanja appointed acting president pending the election 🫆CoA will elect the 4th president since the court was established under the 2010 Constitution 🫆Predecessors: Justices Kihara Kariuki (2013–2018), William Ouko (2018–2021), Musinga (2021–2026) 🫆The Frontrunners - Justices Agnes Murgor; Gatembu Kairu and Lydia Achode 🫆Others are Justices Patrick Kiage, Wanjiru Karanja and Hellen Omondi 🫆Political undercurrents - With a UDA controlled JSC, the regional balance is a complicating factor. CJ being from Mt Kenya region, it won’t be desirable for a CoA President from the same region 🫆Coalition-building among judges expected to intensify after nominations open 🫆The real issue isn’t just succession — it’s institutional direction. The Court of Appeal has increasingly: ✅Stayed landmark consumer and public interest judgments (as in the KPC/Thange Sh3bn case) ✅Reversed progressive High Court findings on accountability, procurement, and rights ✅Granted reprieves to state corporations and politically connected entities with troubling consistency 🫆The next CoA president must answer: Is the Court of Appeal a genuine appellate check — or a second-chance window for the Executive and its allies? 🫆A president with spine and independence — not merely administrative competence — is what the institution needs. 🫆Could Justice Kiage’s intellectual rigour or Justice Murgor’s institutional reform track record offer the best chance of a court that upholds rather than undermines constitutional gains?

Last October, my niece was raped on her way home at around 9;00pm. After those two beasts were done violating her, they forced her to send money to an M-Pesa till. My sister called me crying in the middle of the night and I called Usikimye Founder, Njeri Wa Migwi, because I didn't know what to do. My niece received the medical help she needed, and the matter was reported to the Theta Police Station in Juja Constituency. She was given an OB, number 07/09/10/2025. My niece went to follow up with the police but they didn’t even bother to write a statement. They didn’t even visit the scene. I paid a visit to the station with a lawyer @fatumabdulkadir, my wife @njerikan, and a friend, @JulianiKenya and spoke to the OCS. Our presence forced the Officer Commanding the Police Station to assign an officer to her case. My niece wrote her statement and we drove the police to the site. The lady assigned to the case was Inspector MWW. I kept in touch with her every other day for months while following up on the case. The wheels of justice in Kenya grind slowly or sometimes never even start. As a good police officer, she filed a miscellaneous application in court to find out who owned the M-Pesa number to which my niece sent the money. The application went through, but before the inspector could identify the perpetrators in January, she was arrested by the Directorate of Criminal Investigations, Serious Crime Unit. The same DCI unit that has been harassing me and arresting me on trumped-up charges. I have been under state surveillance for a long time, ironically for being a good citizen advocating for a better Kenya. My repeated calls to a police inspector were flagged by the National Intelligence Service, which handed over the call logs to the DCI to obtain a search warrant against her. She was arrested, her phone and laptop confiscated and taken to DCI. She gave my phone number to her family, and they called me. They told me she was questioned and accused of helping me plan protests. Inspector MWW was accused by the DCI of planning to mobilize members of the public to demonstrate and cause mayhem in the Ruiru area. Specifically, she was suspected of offences including preparation to commit a felony, malicious damage to property and assault causing actual bodily harm. The case also involved unauthorised interference with computer systems, with allegations that she used WhatsApp chats, text messages, and other digital communications to orchestrate or coordinate actions that posed a risk to public peace, stability, and safety. Her HP Compaq laptop and dual-SIM smartphone were seized for forensic analysis to gather evidence related to these alleged activities. I called Advocate Ian Mutiso, who went to see her at DCI and was ready to help. She declined legal assistance connected to me, fearing that accepting it could be interpreted as evidence of an association. She cut off all communications with me to protect her job and decidednot to follow up on my niece’s rape case. The last time I checked on her through her family, her gadgets were yet to be returned to her. After her arrest, even the officers at the police station refused to investigate the case. Then another assault and attempted rape happened. Same place. Same people, according to the description given by the second victim. This time, the rapist sent the money to himself, not another number, and took the victim’s phone. The victim could see her phone’s location somewhere in Juja. The victim’s OB number is 02/03/03/2026. If the police had arrested the perpetrators instead of the investigator, the second rape wouldn’t have happened, and many other crimes. Every year since this government came to power, the National Intelligence Service (NIS) has continued to grow. Their budget is Ksh 51.4 billion, while the Judiciary’s is about half that, at Ksh 27.8 billion. The judiciary has over 250 court stations and tribunals across the country. They have more employees, a pending caseload of approximately 600,000 cases, and justice to deliver to millions of Kenyans, but it’s the spying agency that has a bigger budget. The NIS does important work to protect Kenyans, but it also has units that are assigned to abduct active citizens. They have killer squads who will show up in protests masked, and shoot unarmed citizens. The same budget for NIS is where the president can call and send Noordin or his minions to deliver a briefcase containing millions of shillings to a politician or someone the president wants to bribe, so they can be silenced or persuaded to support him. They collect dirt, blackmail, and bribe people to support an unpopular president whose only legacy is abducting and killing young people. increased debt, and defunding education. Let this regime be a lesson to all of us. Never vote for people who are accused of beating women, raping women, murdering and committing crimes against humanity. When you vote for such people, they will not care about the safety of women and children, they will prioritise house repairs over health, handouts instead of funding education, and if you dare protest, they will send police to shoot you. The pain and depression in the lives of Kenyans are a result of voting for someone who showed us his true colours, and we still elected him. Tomorrow, my family and I will join the women’s march in Nairobi to protest against femicide, gender-based violence and the children who have been kidnapped or killed. I will be in the streets for my niece, and every woman and child whose life has been violated and ruined by this regime. Ps: I have attached the search warrant and photos of the OB numbers in the thread.

Just curious if girls knew that the dormitory had cctv recording. Maybe a notice to that effect would have had a deterence effect!! Unfortunately all we can do is learn something from this and ensure such horrific events don't happen again

The Judiciary is not the only guardian of the Constitution.Kenyans, too, have a constitutional duty to protect and defend it.The courts have issued conservatory orders;now the people must stand behind them and reject any attempt to turn Kenya into an offshore quarantine facility.

You somehow breach Presidential Security and you get instant fame n a job. It doesn't matter how popular or unpopular a a President is. Any action on his life can have catastrophic consequences to the Country. Such recognition for political purposes serve only to inspire many more. Instead of creating jobs n opportunities we focus on knee jerk PR stunts !!!

Justice Mwongo dismisses the Petition against the Election of Wamuthende, finds there were irregularities but they did not impugn the electoral threshold. Recommends charges against certain individuals on various matters inclusive of VOTER BRIBERY. ✅️💯

Fortunately I don't have any expectations of Karen Nyamu. I wouldn't even refer to her as a Senator. Unfortunately she keeps reminding me that even no expectation need a scale on lower standards. What a shame!!!

The line between mediation and legal practice must remain clear. Court-annexed mediation is part of the justice system, not a clever loophole to be exploited by masqueraders. facebook.com/share/p/1CZhKmz…

Currently it appears the most lucrative employment industry is goonism. The use of goons for political reasons is extremely irresponsible & can only bred more violence. It cannot be that all industries are having challenges but only the growing sector is goons!!!

The battle against none Advocate Mediators has been won because of unity by Advocates. Accordingly, @LawSocietyofKe and President @ckanjama should communicate this position to the @Kenyajudiciary and @CJMarthaKoome. The Judiciary should thereafter, proceed to revoke the accreditation of all none Advocate Mediators in the Court Annexed Mediation Program. Advocates should ensure compliance by rejecting any none Advocate Mediator to handle legal disputes referred to mediation.

KRA is not playing with Naivas. You know Naivas. Hii tu moja. It was a fully family owned supermarket giant. When the time came to cash out, the owners weighed their options. If they sold the supermarket from Kenya, they would pay insane taxes. So they went shopping for low tax countries. And Mauritius presented itself. It was irresistible. - 0% tax on sale of the company. In 2015, the family registered a shell company in Mauritius. Called it NIL. Then transferred all their shares to this company. So Naivas was now 100% owned by a Mauritian company. To make it even tighter, they added another layer. They set up a second shell company. Called it GFI. And transferred all NIL shares to GFI. So now: • GFI owns NIL • NIL owns Naivas Kenya Proper entanglement. Achana na hiyo yako. As all this is happening, they are unaware of one dangerous sentence sitting quietly in Kenyan tax law. It reads: • Any company managed and controlled from Kenya is a Kenyan resident company. Then the family went looking for a buyer. In 2020: • They sold 30% of the supermarket for 5.2B • By selling 30% of NIL shares So: - Naivas is still owned by NIL - But NIL now has a new shareholder And everything happened in Mauritius quietly. Nothing has changed hands in Kenya trigger anything. • Deal is closed. 0 tax. Bahati mbaya, KRA caught wind that Naivas is gone. Immediately, KRA embarked on a fault finding mission. In 2022, KRA discovered that: - The family has always lived in Kenya. Not Mauritius. - They managed and controlled every single operation of the shell companies from Kenya They invoked the one dangerous sentence. You remember it? • Any company managed and controlled from Kenya, is a Kenyan resident company. KRA said: • These Mauritius shell companies are Kenyan • They must pay tax in Kenya Tax demanded: 30% of 5.2B. Plus penalties • Total Bill: 1.8B Naivas ran to court. The court looked at it, and sided with KRA. Family wakaabiwa walipe tax. Case closed! Lesson. • Structure your offshore company properly. • Or KRA will structure it for you.

Corruption is KILLING KENYA. We pay global standard rate for infrastructure. But get shit, because goverment officials take 40% of the contract price as bribe. The contractor makes 30% as profit and puts only 30% into the project. Look at the SHIT that is Ngong-Suswa Road.
