Kenyan pastor and motivational speaker Robert Burale has filed a lawsuit against his ex-wife Rozina Mwakideu and media personality Alex Mwakideu, seeking KSh 20 million in damages over a YouTube interview he claims was defamatory.

The interview, titled “My Biggest Mistake Was Marrying Robert Burale”, aired on October 4, 2025.
According to Burale, Rozina allegedly made false claims about his character and conduct.

: TANZANIA FACES NEW U.S. VISA BOND REQUIREMENT STARTING OCTOBER 23
Tanzanian travelers heading to the United States for business or tourism will face a new hurdle starting October 23rd after U.S. government added Tanzania to its Visa Bond Pilot Program.
Under this policy, applicants for B1/B2 visas, those for short-term business or tourism, must post a refundable bond before receiving their visa.
The bond ranges from 5,000 to 15,000 U.S. dollars and is meant to discourage visa overstays.
According to the statement from the U.S. Department of State, if the traveler returns home on time, the bond is refunded. But if they overstay, the money is forfeited.
Tanzania joins several other African nations already in the program, including Malawi, Zambia, and The Gambia.

: MADAGASCAR'S PRESIDENT PLEADS FOR ONE YEAR TO FIX MADAGASCAR OR STEP DOWN
Madagascar’s President Andry Rajoelina has asked for one year to address the country’s challenges, pledging to resign if the problems persist.
He made the announcement during a town-hall style meeting at his palace, where government supporters posed questions and shared concerns.
“I don’t want flattery. I want to hear the truth,” Rajoelina said, blaming past advisors for misleading him about the country’s condition.
The Gen Z Mada movement, which has been leading calls for his resignation, declined an invitation to attend the talks.
The group accused the government of repression and announced fresh protests for Thursday, stating they would not engage with a regime that “represses, assaults, and humiliates its youth.”

The High Court has granted the Attorney General permission to file a Preliminary Objection contesting the inclusion of President William Ruto as a respondent in a petition challenging the appointment of 21 presidential advisors.
Justice Bahati Mwamuye ruled that the objection will focus solely on whether the President should be formally joined in the proceedings.

Written submissions from both sides are due within the set timelines, and judgment will be delivered on December 11.

The mother of former Tanzanian ambassador to Cuba and outspoken government critic Humphrey Polepole, Anna Mary, has arrived at the High Court in Dar es Salaam to follow proceedings in an emergency petition concerning her son’s alleged abduction.
The petition, filed by Polepole’s legal team, claims he was taken from his home in Ununio, Kinondoni, during the early hours of October 6, 2025.
His lawyer, Peter Kibatala, told the court that Polepole has never faced any criminal charges and that the family believes he is being held incommunicado by members of the Tanzania Police Force.
Kibatala requested the court to order authorities to either produce Polepole or disclose his whereabouts.
The case is being heard by Justice Salma Maghimbi, with the Inspector General of Police, Director of Public Prosecutions, Attorney General, Regional Police Commander, and Regional Crimes Officer for Dar es Salaam named as respondents.
Anna Mary, visibly distressed, is seeking answers and accountability for her son’s disappearance.
