Dashed hopes • Kenyans, David Yator says, had high hopes in President William Ruto’s government after its election in 2022, until it plunged from its high moral pedestal. “They voted for good governance, only to find immorality laced with impunity. It could happen again in the 2027 General Election with the weaponising of the laws meant to protect them.” His email address is davidyator14gmail.com.
Budgeted corruption • The Auditor-General’s report on how 33 non-existent schools received billions in taxpayers’ money as capitation funds “is the latest proof of shameless budgeted corruption”, says Taabu Tele. “After disorganising university funding, the government is now taking food from the mouths of its children to cement the graves of a generation thrown to the dogs.” His contact is [email protected] .
Wake up, NTSA • For several days, Sammy Ng’ang’a reports, the National Transport and Safety Authority (NTSA) vehicle inspection office on Likoni Road, Nairobi, has been unable to renew or issue new driving licences. He hates the message: "Sorry the system is down." He poses: “What kind of system is this, which renders an entire department unable to provide services?” His contact is [email protected] .
Court drama • National institutions must be respected by all, including powerful personalities, says Chris Kiriba. “This is why the Judicial Service Commission (JSC) is protesting an arrest within the Ruiru Law Courts on July 4. But the JSC should also condemn the singing, shouting, and other theatrics by activists in the courts, which are supposed to be hallowed places.” His contact is [email protected] .
Polygamy • After what he describes as “a detailed observation”, Enrique Fabios is rooting for polygamy. Says he: “All Kenyan men with a net worth of Sh5 million should marry several wives so that more children can have a male figure in their lives. They should also get tax breaks. It should be about the children’s welfare, but will also help to reduce sexual impropriety.” His contact is [email protected] .
Have a needful day, won’t you!
