A country on its knees, borrowing €1.6 million from China to tackle drought, is planning to spend over €5 million to host @FCBayernEN Are we mad? What an insult to a suffering nation! @VincentKompany @HKane @AFCAjax

Hongera, comrade Edwin Sifuna! @edwinsifuna. I witnessed your campaigning prowess and extraordinary leadership first-hand during the 2022 General Election, when we fought side by side for Raila and an Azimio victory.
Omwami, you are an exceptionally gifted politician, and I wish you every success as you lead the Linda Mwananchi Movement from strength to strength and on to greater heights. Mbele ni pazuri!

On Live Streaming of Election results:
Remember, Ruto & Uhuru amended Elections Act in 2017 to block live streaming. We went to Court and Court invalidated the amendments.
That 10 years later Ruto thinks he can block live streaming is laughable.

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.

Article 35 (1) Every citizen has the right of access to information held by the State.
Article 35 (3): The State SHALL publish and publicise any important information affecting the nation.
Disclosure of information is a Constitutional imperative not something left to the whims of one person. The era of secretive deals negotiated in the dark will end when we kick this current regime out and return our country back to the rule of Law.

Last night I planted an olive tree at Gracie Mansion with Palestinian families from Gaza.
May peace be our future.

What happened to me is bigger than one artist or one stage. When the billionaire class can decide which voices are allowed on stage and which ones are too dangerous to hear, everyone should be paying attention.
So we're going on tour. All proceeds will benefit organizations supporting the Palestinian people and movement.

In Solidarity with Borderless Africa!
Kenya cannot be home to Xenophobia. We refuse to hate fellow Africans.
As Africans, we must stand together socially, economically and politically.
African leaders should not plant seeds of division and discord among us.
Kenya refuses to be another South Africa. We stand united in support of one Africa.

As we celebrate Katiba Day, we honour Prof. Yash Pal Ghai for his immense contribution to Kenya’s constitutional-making process.
