This regime is packed with small minds obsessed with control. They want to choke every space, seize every voice, and dictate every move. Freedom? Gone. Debate? Silenced. Total control is their only agenda.

Appeasing the masses with sweet talk while strong-arming the government into enforcing a punitive tax regime? We’ve seen this script before. We know how it ends.

A paranoid regime will always crush what it doesn’t understand. Innovation terrifies the mediocre. Kenya Kwanza doesn’t miss an opportunity to shoot itself in the foot and then blame the limp on its enemies. I told you: that apology was a fraud. Just like the person who offered

Let’s be clear: The second Tuesday of August 2027 falls after the fifth year. The Constitution (Art. 136(2)(a)) says elections must be held in the fifth year, not after.

9 Aug 2022 – 8 Aug 2023 = Year 1 9 Aug 2023 – 8 Aug 2024 = Year 2 9 Aug 2024 – 8 Aug 2025 = Year 3 9 Aug 2025 – 8 Aug 2026 = Year 4 9 Aug 2026 – 8 Aug 2027 = Year 5 Article 136(2)(a) of the Constitution requires that the general election be held in the fifth year, not after

There is nowhere in the Constitution that entitles a president to a five-year term. What the Constitution provides is a general election on the second Tuesday of August in the fifth year ; Article 136(2)(a). The presidency is tied to the electoral calendar, not personal

Which Constitution is this one reading? Because it’s definitely not the Constitution of Kenya (2010). A presidential election must be held on the same day as the general elections for Members of Parliament ; specifically, on the second Tuesday of August in the fifth year

Who told you that the Constitution of Kenya recognizes "Wednesday" as the start of a political year? đŸ€š There is no Article, no clause, no constitutional logic that says a “new election year” begins the day after elections. That entire "Wednesday-to-Tuesday" calendar is

Stick to what your brain can handle ; maybe run a thread on celebrity breakups, campus drama, or who unfollowed who on Instagram. That’s your real turf. This constitutional stuff? Way above your intellectual pay grade. Just keep blogging, chief. We’ll call you when the country

Yes, Article 142 of the Constitution of Kenya (2010) talks about the presidential term, but that has nothing to do with determining the date of the next general election. Article 142(1) says: “The President shall hold office for a term beginning on the date on which the

You’re clearly struggling not with law but with plain English. The Constitution doesn’t say “August 8th”. It says: “The second Tuesday of August.” That’s a floating date, not a fixed number. It could be August 8th one year, August 13th the next, or August 9th like it was in

If you think being a lawyer means forcing nonsense on people, then clearly you’ve never met a real one , just keyboard warriors like you, armed with nothing but nonesense poor grammar. I’m not here to beg for your approval or sugarcoat facts. I’m here to speak the law , whether

A confident leader faces the press, answers uncomfortable questions, and upholds media freedom , not curating coverage like a paranoid influencer. This isn’t how democracies behave. It’s how fragile regimes operate

Willis Evans Otieno (@otienowill) 's Twitter Profile Photo

Yes, something constitutionally catastrophic would happen , we would be violating Article 136(2)(a) of the Constitution, which expressly provides that a general election for the President shall be held on the second Tuesday in August in every fifth year. Not whenever it feels

Well then, should we all just sit and wait for the next swearing-in without conducting the election that makes that swearing-in possible? How do some of you genuinely reason? Do you also harvest before planting? The Constitution sets election dates to ensure continuity. Without

I sympathize with your fatigue, but sadly, the law doesn’t take naps just because you're tired. If constitutional facts give you headaches, perhaps civic education is the cure.

It is arguable that 9 August 2022, being the designated election day, ought not to be factored into the computation of the initial year of the presidential term. Accordingly, the proper commencement of Year One would be deemed to begin on 10 August 2022, thereby initiating the

Ruto said ‘if’ Gen Zs were wronged, then sorry. That ‘if’ is doing too much heavy lifting. Less than a week later, Rose Njeri is arrested not for rioting but for facilitating public participation. #FreeRoseNjeri

On this day in 1963, we seized internal self-rule from colonial hands a critical step in reclaiming our dignity after decades of brutal subjugation. But Madaraka wasn’t just a political event ; it was a sacred promise to govern ourselves justly, boldly, and for all. Yet 62
