Ruto attack on Parliament is suspect
A joint sitting of the National Assembly and Senate.
Sinister motive • Reading an ulterior motive in President William Ruto’s onslaught on Parliament with his bribery allegations, Dr Kennedy Miyoro Mochabo poses: “What could be the end game? Could it be the removal of the current leadership, including Leader of Majority Kimani Ichung’wah, having outlived their usefulness, and to have a broad-based Legislature?” His contact is [email protected].

SHA reality • As the Social Health Authority (SHA) controversy rages on, with differences between the government and the opposition, ordinary Kenyans wish to know what they’re entitled to, says Douglas Kaumbuthu Aritho. “The SHA is not covering outpatients, who pay for consultation and drugs. Of what value is it to them? This is the reality on the ground.” His contact is [email protected].

Rare integrity • After he realised he had sent money to the wrong number, Githuku Mungai asked Co-op Bank for a reversal. “All Komanje Garments asked for was to be allowed to verify the transaction. The following day, I received an email that the reversal had been approved, and later got the money by phone transfer. I wish to thank the firm for its honesty.” His contact is [email protected].

Deplorable • Long sections of the Kisumu-Busia highway, especially between Ugunja and Luanda, are in deplorable condition, says Dave Tumbula. “There are many huge potholes and trenches. Where is the Kenya National Highways Authority’s maintenance team? Why should it take so long to fill in the holes? Someone is sleeping on the job and endangering the lives of motorists and passengers.”

Service • The introduction of community service learning as a compulsory subject under the Competency-Based Education is a great idea, says Brian Wekesa. “It will equip students with community service skills, including maintaining a clean environment to shield the people against infections. The Ministry of Education deserves kudos for this!” His email address is [email protected].
Have a valuable day, won’t you!
