ONE OF THE county bosses
has become the subject of gossip among his staff, with those close to him
quietly expressing deep frustration. They claim he is allegedly stingy and indifferent to
their welfare. His press unit and security detail reportedly spend an entire
day without food while on duty, yet the boss supposedly remains unmoved. The discontent goes beyond his
immediate aides. Officers in his administration are forced to walk long
distances back home after official duties because they lack even fare for a boda
boda, simply because their allowances have not been paid.

TWO LAWMAKERS FROM the
same county shocked colleagues and civil servants after they almost got into a
fist fight at one of the ministries in Nairobi. The altercation began after the
female MP demanded to know why her male counterpart had purportedly used a derogatory word
while addressing her in a WhatsApp group. The two come from the same county but
belong to different camps in the current political dispensation. It took the
intervention of their colleagues to separate them as they almost went physical.

WHY IS A government
entity denying people access to critical services without offering clear or
lawful justification? Numerous people report being turned away and instructed to
seek services in their place of birth—an apparent requirement that has neither
been formally announced nor supported by any official policy. This has sparked
serious concern and confusion, raising questions about whether new rules are
being enforced quietly and without transparency.

WHISPERS ARE SWIRLING around
a certain MP accused of supposedly quietly
bankrolling bloggers to peddle false claims that his party rival was excluded
from a high-level meeting bringing together key leaders. Insiders say the
narrative is meant to portray the rival as slowly being edged out, when in fact
the exclusion never happened. The dirty online campaign reportedly follows a
bitter fallout between the two, with the MP now allegedly determined to tarnish his colleague’s standing and
rewrite the political script.
