Majority Leader Senator Aaron Cheruiyot has issued a 14-day ultimatum to Browns Tea Company to produce the security guards allegedly involved in the fatal assault of a young man accused of trespassing on the company's tea farm. The Senator demanded accountability and justice for the deceased, warning that further action will be taken if those responsible are not presented within the stipulated period.

By 1970s, Kenyatta family’s land grabbing spree had become so sweeping that Jomo Kenyatta almost grabbed a parcel that had already been grabbed by his wife.

In 1977, a year before his death, Mama Ngina was signing off on beach plot allocations along the Coast.

At the time, Coast Provincial Commissioner Eliud Mahihu controlled who could buy beach land.

He reserved prime plots for the First Family as Kenyatta grew reluctant to approve more allocations.

To process one Nyali title, Mahihu first obtained Mama Ngina’s signature and forwarded copies to Lands Commissioner J. Njenga.

Around the same period, Mahihu instructed the Provincial Surveyor to carve out 9.056 acres in Nyali Estate for Kenyatta himself.

With beach titles piling up in different names, Kenyatta had lost track of the household’s holdings.

The 9.056-acre Nyali parcel Mahihu set aside for the President turned out to already be under Mama Ngina’s name.

In effect, Kenyatta was about to re-allocate to himself land his wife already held.

TJRC report shows that between 1964 and 1966, one sixth of former settler land meant for landless went to Kenyatta, Mama Ngina and their children.

A Swedish billionaire bought 400,000 acres of the Amazon rainforest just to stop it from being destroyed.

His name is Johan Eliasch.

In 2005, he bought land in the Brazilian Amazon by acquiring a logging company called Gethal Amazonas.

But instead of using the land to make money from timber, he did the opposite.

He shut the logging operations down.

The area he bought was roughly 400,000 acres, about the size of Greater London.

His goal was to protect the forest from further commercial destruction and keep the trees standing.

The story went viral because it sounds almost unreal.

Most billionaires buy yachts, mansions, islands, or sports teams.

He bought a huge piece of rainforest and stopped people cutting it down.

A logging company became a conservation project.

And 400,000 acres of the Amazon got a second chance.

Political history has been so unkind to Daniel Arap Moi. People have been made to believe that he was Kenya’s worst president.

But when you look closely, many of the projects we rely on today were delivered during his era, and largely without the foreign debt.

The Nairobi–Mombasa A109 highway, for instance, was dualled in the late 1980s and early 1990s.

The Isiolo–Moyale A2 to Ethiopia was started in 1985 and completed in 1996, opening up Northern Kenya.

Other major roads from that era include Nairobi–Namanga,Nairobi–Narok–Kisii, and Garissa–Modogashe–Wajir.

He also expanded rural electrification and supported hydroelectric projects, laying the foundation for Kenya’s energy sector. These projects connected communities, boosted trade, and integrated marginalized areas into the national economy.

His footprint in education speaks for itself. 8-4-4 system of Education which we all envied was delivered by his administration

Nearly every county in Kenya today has a national school named after him (Moi Girls High Schools)

These schools, more than 50 across the country, were built through Harambee drives during his tenure.In the entire period of 24 years as the President, Daniel Moi borrowed less than 600 billion Kshs.

Moi prioritized healthcare expansion through the construction of Nyayo Wards in district hospitals, increasing bed capacity nationwide. He established the Moi Teaching and Referral Hospital in Eldoret, which remains one of Kenya’s premier medical facilities. Community-driven Harambee efforts also funded laboratories and radiology units, strengthening rural healthcare.

I have never understood why some people believe that Kibaki was the best despite hiking public debt from 600 billion to 2 trillion by the time he left office in 2013.

Moi’s record has been reduced to a caricature due to skewed historical narrative that was pushed by Mt Kenya elites to cast him as a villain.

Daniel Arap Moi planned Jomo Kenyatta's funeral arrangements ten years before his death.

After Kenyatta’s April 1968 heart attack in Mombasa left him unconscious for 3 days, his inner circle realized he was mortal.

Agriculture Minister Bruce McKenzie approached British High Commissioner Sir Edward Peck to secretly plan both the funeral and the succession.

A secret committee was formed to oversee the process. It included Vice President Daniel Moi, Defence Minister Dr Njoroge Mungai, Attorney-General Charles Njonjo, Bruce McKenzie, and Col J.R. Anderson.

Jomo Kenyatta himself was not informed.

The funeral plan was detailed.

The body was to be embalmed at Gatundu, lie in state at State House Nairobi for three days, then a state funeral on day six.

The service was set for St Andrew’s Presbyterian Church, with burial at a site to be named “Kenyatta’s Shrine”.

A special coffin was secretly built in London and a qualified embalmer was to be flown in.

Maps of Gatundu, State House, the church, and the burial site were taken to London.

Though Moi had been VP since 1967, Kenyatta’s Kikuyu inner circle did not trust him and treated him poorly.

The plot to deny Moi the presidency came from the same Kikuyu inner circle, the infamous “Kiambu Mafia”.

They backed Dr Njoroge Mungai as Kenyatta’s long-term successor and saw Moi only as a 90-day caretaker.

On June 19, 1968, McKenzie met Moi and Mungai about the funeral plans. Six days later, Kenya’s 10th Constitutional Amendment passed.

It allowed the Vice President to act as President for 90 days after the President’s death, then face a general election.

As anticipated, Kenyatta died on August 22, 1978 while sleeping at State House, Mombasa. Moi took over and would rule for 24 years.

Jomo Kenyatta ruled for 15 years, he never visited Wajir.

Moi ruled for 24 years and records are showing he visited Wajir approximately 10-15 times (this has shocked me)

Kibaki ruled for 10 years and he visited Wajir only once.

Uhuru ruled for 10 years and he visited Wajir twice.

HE Ruto in 4 years, he has visited Wajir 5 times and not with empty hands but with tangible long term investments. In 10 years of his leadership God willing, North Eastern will be the greatest beneficiary.
