Government extends dangerous area status for 13 parts of Marsabit

Life will remain restricted in several parts of Marsabit County after the government renewed a security order covering 13 locations.

The decision means the areas will continue to be treated as dangerous for another month.

Interior Cabinet Secretary Kipchumba Murkomen said the extension will start on December 23, 2025, at 6.30pm and will run for 30 days.

He explained that the move was made after consultations with the National Security Council and could be lifted or extended depending on how the security situation develops.

The affected areas are Hillo Gorgora, Hillo Orofa, Hillo Walkite, Hillo Tanzania, Hillo Irress Abamartille, Hillo Gootu, Hillo Tessum Qalicha, Hillo Karray, Hillo Hudda, Hillo Qoranjido, Hillo Irress Shindia, Hillo Rabaalee, and Hillo Godde Haroressa.

Following the declaration, Inspector General of Police Douglas Kanja announced fresh restrictions on fi****ms in the listed areas.

Residents who have guns were ordered to surrender them immediately to the nearest police station or National Government Administration office. Kanja said the fi****ms would be returned to their owners once the security notice is withdrawn.

This extension comes at a time when some lawmakers have been pushing for the notice to be lifted.

Members of Parliament from the Administration and Internal Security Committee visited the affected areas on November 29, where they met local leaders, residents, and security officers.

After assessing the situation, the MPs said the security conditions had improved and agreed with local stakeholders that the declaration should be removed.

Despite these views, the government chose to extend the notice, citing the need to maintain stability in the region.

Court orders Waititu to forfeit Ksh131 million in partial asset recovery case

A court has ordered the State to recover part of the wealth linked to former Kiambu Governor Ferdinand Waititu, giving him limited relief from a much larger forfeiture request.

In a decision delivered on Friday, December 19, the court ruled that assets worth Ksh131 million should be surrendered to the government.

The ruling follows an earlier demand that Waititu and his wife, Susan Ndung’u, give up properties estimated at more than Ksh1.9 billion.

Authorities had claimed that the assets were obtained through fraudulent dealings during his time in public office.

Under the latest order, the couple must forfeit two parcels of land valued at about Ksh32 million.

They will also surrender a Caterpillar construction tractor worth Ksh11 million, along with two vehicles valued at Ksh600,000 each.

Justice Nixon Sifuna said the couple did not present enough proof to show that the listed assets were acquired legally.

He therefore partially allowed a civil case filed by the Ethics and Anti-Corruption Commission (EACC), which is seeking to recover property believed to have been obtained through corruption.

The case began in 2022 when the EACC moved to court, arguing that Waititu held unexplained assets worth more than Ksh1 billion.

The commission claimed that the wealth could not be justified based on his known income.

According to the EACC, the questionable assets were accumulated while Waititu served as Kabete Member of Parliament between 2015 and 2017 and later as Kiambu Governor from 2017 to 2020.

The case remains a key example of ongoing efforts to recover public funds lost through corruption.

Moses Kuria blasts Daily Nation over Sh5bn industrial parks story

A fresh row has emerged between former Cabinet Secretary Moses Kuria and Nation Media Group following the publication of a Daily Nation story on the Sh5 billion industrial parks scandal.

Kuria took issue with the decision to place his image prominently on the newspaper’s front page, arguing that the coverage unfairly linked him to problems he says arose after he left office.

In a strongly worded response, Kuria said the reporting painted him as an offender even though he exited the ministry more than a year ago.

“The Nation Media Group remains the biggest embarrassment in the media industry. A threat to media freedom,” Kuria said.

He questioned why his photo was used while images of officials who took over the docket after his departure were not included.

Kuria explained that he stopped serving as Cabinet Secretary in charge of the industrial parks programme on October 4, 2023.

He insisted that the stalled projects should not be blamed on his time in office.

“How do you splash the mugshot of the minister who started this revolutionary dream and not the photos of his three successors who killed the dream?” he asked.

He further stated that he is not a suspect in the matter but rather a complainant.

“I am a complainant who is being portrayed by NMG as the offender,” Kuria said, adding that he feels targeted by the media house.

The Daily Nation story reported that none of the 47 counties has completed the promised industrial park units nearly three years after the programme was launched.

Kuria defended the idea behind the projects, saying they were meant to boost manufacturing and youth employment. “We would be having hundreds of youths working in these industrial parks,” he said.
