Is there a single decent human in Trump’s cabinet?
If there were, he or she would denounce this racism.
But there isn’t.

I got this message from a senior police officer following my request for a statement in the Senate on the welfare of police officers in Kenya.
“I have been asking myself: if a DCI office at the sub-county level receives less than KSh 200,000/- in AIE funds over a period of three months, our salaries, fuel, and motor vehicle maintenance then where does the rest of the billions allocated annually to the police service go?
This is a genuine question about public finance and resource allocation. Officers on the ground are often expected to deliver results with extremely limited operational funds, yet the police service receives a substantial budget every year. Greater transparency on how these funds are distributed from headquarters to operational units would help build public confidence and improve accountability.
Even some sub counties have no vehicles and have as few as four officers and no AIEs.”

Fellow Kenyans, the Constitution is clear.
The electoral system must be “accurate, verifiable, secure, accountable and transparent”
No law is superior than our Katiba.
I will work with the People’s Coalition for Electoral Reforms @Reforms_Ke to thwart any efforts to return us to the dark era of ECK or the post election violence of 2007/08.
The National Assembly has approved the Elections Amendment Bill 2024, which could scrap mandatory livestreaming of polling station results, raising fresh concerns over transparency ahead of the 2027 General Election.

“In late spring 2020, a source I knew to be reliable called me with a story,” writes Matthew Cole. “The Dutch government had hacked into Jared Kushner’s phone and monitored him as he accessed a Dubai-based bank account. What was odd, the source said, was that the money in the account—hundreds of millions of dollars—had come from a bank in Azerbaijan. Most importantly, Kushner appeared to have transferred significant amounts of money from the Dubai account to other individuals, including a warlord, a mercenary and a one-time hit man. The story sounded preposterous, I told my source. And yet.
Six months later, I found myself speaking with someone else about the UAE government and their use of mercenaries in conflicts around the Middle East and Africa when I asked, on a whim, whether they knew anything about Kushner and bank transfers from a UAE account. My acquaintance grew quiet. Then they replied, ‘Yes.’” Kushner’s lawyer denied the bank account existed.

What worries me about Kenya is the obsession we have developed lately with securitisation, public-private partnerships (PPPs) and complex deals involving mysterious entities whose ultimate beneficial owners remain unknown.
The deals are too many to keep track of, and I fear that one day we will pay dearly for the lack of transparency and accountability surrounding them.

It’s sad that in Kenya people with the right connections become millionaires overnight, while those investing in factories creating jobs, and building real technology struggle to survive.
We reward middlemen and frustrate manufacturers, yet wonder why we are not industrializing.
