You know where timber is sold, you know where nails are sold, you also know what a saw looks like. Don't cheapen the struggle with stupid parallelism and idiotic whataboutism.

What would a debt register audit reveal? The national debt register is public and we know who we owe what. Money is stolen in projects and projects are audited by OAG. All that is needed is to act on OAG reports. Don't expect anything meaningful after 3 months from the task force

This is truly frightening— it is the kind of thing that happened in Idi Amin’s Uganda. If President Ruto does not want his international reputation to go the way of his domestic reputation he has to come out and denounce these kinds of abductions and order them to stop.

The Ruto administration has made a surprising number of misjudgements but one that stands out is the belief that you can hike taxes without addressing corruption. No-one will be willing to hand over more cash if they believe it will be stolen. A short 🧵 on Ruto’s blunders.

"Even if he survives calls for him to resign over Kenya’s tax protests, William Ruto will be severely weakened. A president forced to withdraw his own budget can hardly be otherwise."

The chaos on the streets of Nairobi this week highlights the risky bet the Biden administration has made on the Kenyan leader William Ruto, orchestrated largely by US Ambassador Meg Whitman.

Our pain is our fuel. Mr. President, we will not stop you will answer for all of the blood you have shed in your corrupt career as a politician. #RejectFinanceBill2024 #RevolutionKenya #GodIsNotMocked

The main geopol goal for the Emiratis in Kenya would have to be the ports...we'll see whether this comes up in the fullness of time.

Government metaphorically has been seen as a big meat, often characterized as a hunting kill by those who campaigned and won the election to form that government. The expectation has always been that those who were involved both have an opportunity to eat from their campaign

Having a degree from Harvard, Oxford, Cambridge, or MIT doesn’t make one a useful advisor. It’s one’s courage, originality, authenticity, and ability to produce transformative and critical thoughts that would add value to African governments and citizens. African

Economics is too important to be left to to textbook economists. The best economics is on the streets.....

As long as the stock market is booming, the Shilling is stable or strengthening and banks are hawking loans to hustlers, we are okay with parasites driving luxury vehicles. The problem is when they do it while everyone else is suffering.

Amb.Whitman's admission that her assertion that '22 elections were credible was not itself so credible,may have come after real briefing from state department&CIA that those who end up occupying political office do not control political pulse in Kenya.She needed to make climbdown

No only is Kenya leading in dedollarization of Africa, we're also leading in deshillinging Kenyans 🥹🫡

You can still pack your stuff and get out. You are not nailed to the office walls. Badala ya kulia kila siku and you live in a cocoon where you earn $1500 a day, you don’t pay rent, power, fuel, fees or anything. Just shut up and eat our sweat. Njuthi.
