People who come from healthy family backgrounds are extremely, almost unbelievably naive about how bad things can get

The Kenya government has discovered a new trick. They have been taking money from your salary every month for housing. You did not agree to this. Courts told them to stop. They ignored the courts and kept taking. Now they have looked at all that money and had a wonderful idea. Why not use it to secure a loan of Sh100 billion? Think about what that means. They are using your money as guarantee to borrow more money. Money that you will also pay back. To build houses that you cannot afford. Using a salary from which they are still deducting. For housing you will never own. It is a perfect system. For them. But here is the part that should make every Kenyan worker sit up. This government can feel 2027 approaching. The door is closing. So before they leave they have decided to write cheques on your behalf that will take years to pay. The next government will inherit the debt. The next Kenyan worker will pay it. The current team will be long gone and very comfortable. This is what happens when people who have nothing to lose make decisions for people who have everything to lose. They are not borrowing against their own futures. They are borrowing against yours. The houses remain unaffordable. The levy keeps coming. The loan is on its way. And somewhere in a very nice office a press release is being prepared calling this a historic milestone in delivering affordable housing to Kenyans. Your payslip will tell a different story. Dismas wa Tabu. Dreaming in installments. Billed in full.

Kenya’s government plans to use future Housing Levy deductions from salaries as security to borrow Sh100 billion for housing projects.

A lot of these people saying “I would adopt a Down Syndrome baby in a heartbeat” would not last a day taking care of a severely physically and intellectually disabled adult.

This morning, we accompanied the family of Krystabel Anyango Ochieng (Bella) to the Directorate of Criminal Investigations (DCI) Homicide Unit to follow up on the status of investigations into her death. An account from the family indicates that Bella’s lifeless body was presented to Syokimau Police Station on 1st May 2026 by a man who was in an estranged relationship with her. The post-mortem examination conducted on 4th May established the cause of death as blunt force trauma to the head. Despite this report and a recorded history of abuse, the said man was only momentarily arrested before being released without arraignment, charges, or any conclusive finding to exonorate him. To date, no substantive progress has been made by the DCI offices at Mlolongo and Athi River despite several follow ups by the immediate family and the Kenya National Commission on Human Rigjts (KNCHR). On account of the slow progress, the family reached out to the DCI and were given audience today by the Deputy Director, Homicide, who undertook to intervene and see to it that this matter is investigated swiftly and conclusively. We thank all officers who have come forward to assist this grieving family to find justice for their beloved daughter. The femicide crisis in our Country has left one-too-many families wallowing in the miasma of unanswered questions and anxious hope for justice that never comes. Bella cannot be just another statistic.

The thing with abusers is, they rarely change. They might even get bolder when they escape justice. Eventually, they slip up and become exposed beyond reasonable doubt. Unfortunately, they leave a trail of victims behind them
