HII TOWN WAKORA NI WENGI BE WARNED !!! Today, I called a Nairobi County resident to remind her that her land rates were long overdue. She was surprised and initially thought I was a fraudster trying to extort money from her under false pretenses. This clearly shows that the number of scammers and extortionists targeting innocent Nairobi residents has increased. I urge all city residents to remain vigilant and never send money to anyone simply because they receive a phone call requesting payment. For all Nairobi City County services, please do not make cash payments to individuals. Instead, make all payments directly to the official County revenue account or through the approved payment channels provided at our Customer Care Service Centres. Let us all remain alert and protect ourselves from fraudsters.

Today, in a continued effort to restore order in our city and curb illegal dumping, I led an operation to remove hawkers who had shifted from the CBD to the outer edges of Uhuru Park completely blocking both sides of the walkway. This move follows inciteful remarks made by the Embakasi East MP, who encouraged hawkers to occupy CBD walkways and public spaces under the guise of being poor and trying to earn a living. But since when did poverty become a license to break the law? If you visit cities like Kisumu, you won’t find hawkers occupying walkways, blocking pedestrians, or dumping garbage everywhere. Why, then, is Nairobi expected to tolerate such disorder? Why do some leaders and citizens glorify impunity and normalize illegality, forgetting that where there is disorder, criminals thrive stealing from innocent pedestrians and turning our city into a place of fear? If we are truly committed to transforming our systems and embracing good leadership, we must support government officers who are doing the right thing. We cannot keep justifying illegality by using poverty as a sympathy card. Being poor should not be an excuse to disregard the law. I was insulted, harassed, and embarrassed last Friday by hawkers who were doing business but at the wrong place. They blocked walkways, made it difficult for pedestrians to move, and disrupted shop owners who pay rent, permits, and taxes to operate while hawkers don’t pay rent nor business permits and yet they block customers from accessing shops of those who rightfully pay rent . This unfairness cannot be ignored. If standing for the right thing is what some call harassment of the poor, then let me be that 'bad person' because one day, Nairobi will look back and celebrate those who stood firm for order, justice, and sanity in our city. What I am doing is not new to the people of Nairobi; it is firmly grounded in the laws and regulations of the Nairobi City County Government. 🔹 Nairobi City County Solid Waste Management Act, 2015 prohibits illegal dumping and unregulated activity in public spaces. 🔹 Nairobi County Outdoor Advertising and Public Nuisance Act prohibits obstruction and public nuisance in walkways. 🔹 Nairobi City County Trade Licensing Act forbids trading in areas not officially designated for hawking. Let’s stop making excuses. Let’s enforce the law. Let’s build a cleaner, safer, and more dignified Nairobi for all.

Contrary to the misreporting by Citizen TV Kenya , we did not leave the venue because we were "chased." We departed because the presiding Bishop and Seme MP James Nyikal had already left to proceed with the burial of his father. Our sole purpose for attending was to offer our condolences and stand in solidarity with the family. Remaining unbowed, we left the service and arrived safely at the airport to return to Nairobi. This travel is in preparation for the EALASCA Festival, which are scheduled to kick off in Mombasa on Monday, May 4th, 2026. I am proud to confirm that Siaya County will be participating in the upcoming events and I will be joining them as the Patron of KICOSCA. While at the airport, we enjoyed a warm reception and spent time engaging with the locals before boarding. The people of Kisumu are WANTAM, a spirit of hospitality and excellence that was clearly on display throughout the past weekend.

When you listen to people like Sakaja Arthur Johnson - you begin to understand the depth of our problem as a country. Listen to him try to articulate why he is unable to build drainage systems. He says - he lacks the capital. And this right here is just about the dumbest thing anyone can say - when you know the facts. I urge you to read my analysis of the absolute chaos and mayhem that is Nairobi County Finances. That analysis is below. But let me point out just a few examples of the sheer stupidity that is devouring Nairobi County. In 2023-2024, Sakaja Arthur Johnson had KSH 33 billion in revenue to serve 4.6 million people who call Nairobi home. Provide healthcare. Transportation systems. Social services. Sanitation and drainage services. How did he spend this money? (1) He spent 56% of this revenue on salaries - against the law, which caps such spending at 35%. That was KSH 18 billion. By so doing - he stole KSH 6.7 billion in money that should have gone to build drainage systems. This is not rocket science, Sakaja Arthur Johnson So citizens lose KSH 6.7 billion in one fell swoop. This KSH 18 billion went to 16,000 people who are 0.3% of Nairobi's population. That leaves KSH 15 billion. Right? He then dropped KSH 1.2 billion travelling to any foreign capital or exotic place that had any event where incompetent county politicians and their lackies could burn money. Such as: A trip to Marakech Morocco study "proactive management" at the cost of KSH 37 million. For two weeks, 19 people stayed in a resort destination in Morocco studying non-sense. A trip to Vancouver, British Columbia to study "Conflict Resolution" at the cost of KSH 10.9 million. 14 People! A trip to Dubai, to study "personal branding". Cost? KSH 9 million. And on, and on, and on. KSH 1.2 billion gets wasted that way. 100% wasteful. Look at the third attachment here. It tells you that Nairobi County spent KSH 6.3 billion on legal fees to 4 lawyers (am working to bring you details of who these lawyers are). I think we all know by now that math is not one of your strengths - so let's help you a bit. KSH 6.3 billion, Sakaja Arthur Johnson - is 20% of the County Budget. And it went to 4 lawyers. That is despite the fact that Nairobi County had a team of lawyers who cost citizens KSH 267 million in 2023-2024! And worse - read the Auditor General's comment: It was related to cases of corruption, incompetence in managing contracts, and other shenanigans like those. Point is - it was avoidable. 100% avoidable. What could KSH 6.3 billion worth of infrastructure look like in Nairobi? You lose KSH 6.7 billion in a salary heist to 0.3% of those in government. Lose another KSH 1.2 billion on foolish travel. And lose another KSH 6.3 billion to 4 lawyers. That, Sakaja Arthur Johnson is KSH 14 billion. KSH 14 billion. In just three easy examples of wastage. I have not even said a damn thing about the thousands of ghost workers on payroll in Nairobi. And there are thousands. Not me saying. Look on the fourth attachment. Fellow Kenyans, Allow me to quote one of our compatriots (Finiius): "We are a house where the parents sell the roof, to buy a suitcase, for a trip to ask the neighbors for a blanket" The people with the resources are wasting them right in front of our eyes - and then, they tell us that we are living in squalor because we lack resources. These people are incompetent, as hell. There is a clip of this same character somewhere telling kids that he is waiting on Ruto to buy these kids a "chapati making machine" - whatever that is. That is when those kids will eat. Meanwhile, he just gave KSH 6.3 billion of taxpayer money to four of his buddies. It's insane. Fellas - they say that stupidity is like death. When you are dead - you are not sad. Because you don't know that you are dead. But your loved ones feel the impact of your death. Same is true of stupidity. These guys in office apparently have no idea that they are stupid and incompetent. Don't you see? How else can anyone open their mouth and say with a straight face that they lack the resources to serve Kenyans, when they are losing money like drunks in a casino every which way? Lord have mercy! Senate of Kenya National Assembly KE Edwin Sifuna Dr. Miguna Miguna EACC Nasambu My Analysis of Nairobi County is available below: Bonnie Mwangi, CPA, LLM, MBA on X: "If you have 32 minutes, I will show you how Nairobi County loses 32,949,346,981. Yes, that's not a typo. KSH 32 billion. Let me walk you through a trip to hell. Data from 2023-2024. The county had KSH 33 billion to spend. To serve 4.6 million residents. The county / X

To build or Invest?- Why Not Both? A friend of mine had a dilemma of whether to build his own home in a prime 50*100 plot in Nairobi or make an investment and build an apartment block. His Solution? Do BOTH Now he sought an architect who would fit his 25 million Budget and Draw him a 5-bedroom uni plus 2 studios/bedsitters which he intended to have as some Servant quarters and anything else the budget would allow. What the architect came up with was a Masterpiece A modern Boutique Apartment Block 534m2 Total Cost Kes 26,663,150, (definitely it went over budget a little) 1 5-bedroom unit 1 3 bedroom unit 1 Duplex 3 bedroom unit with an sq 2 studios Basketball court Security office And a dog kernel Now he has both a home and an income.

Staged Chaos: Today’s “Protests” Were a Classic State Gaslighting Operation Normally, these staged videos of Kiganjo D(minus) DCI killer goons are circulated by select state bloggers to spread fear and demobilize during Gen Z protests. Today was different. For the first time, we saw them pretending to do “stop-and-frisk” instead of their usual shoot-to-kill policy. This was not restraint out of goodwill - it was a direct order from the Ministry of Interior. During real Gen Z protests, these same goons release bullets like it’s a shooting range. The sudden change in tactic is clear evidence that today’s events were a carefully orchestrated gaslighting exercise - designed to trigger emotions, embed matatu operators into the movement, and then demobilize it from within. Dear Kenyans in Nairobi and Mount Kenya: Matatu operators are not your friends. They are the ones harboring the Mungiki sect. Maina Njenga is based at Kindiki Kithure’s office for a reason. These are not ordinary businessmen - they are state assets. That’s why matatus in Bomet, Mombasa, or Kisumu did not burn roads or block them with stones. Mungiki is a government-sponsored outfit specifically sustained to enforce political compliance in Nairobi and Mount Kenya regions. All the femicide cases, all the incidents where women are stripped naked by matatu operators (like the infamous “My Dress My Choice” false flag of 2015), are engineered psyops meant to spark gender wars and distract from the real issues. Today’s controlled violence, which conveniently did not attract extreme police blowback, proves the point: the matatu operators and Mungiki elements were deliberately allowed to perpetrate atrocities because it served a broader political agenda. This was never a genuine protest. It was a state-sponsored simulation to justify future repression and manufacture the narrative that any mass action equals chaos. Recognize the playbook. Reject the trap. Matatu operators are tools of the regime - not allies in the struggle. Stay vigilant.

At the Tabernacle Choir Christmas concert last year, I was introduced to Dr. Charles Mulli. I was grateful to see him again, this time in Kenya. As a child, Dr. Mulli lived on the streets of Nairobi for over a decade. At age 17, he joined Christianity, pursued an education, and became a successful businessman. Eventually, he sold all his businesses to rescue kids experiencing a childhood like his own. Along with his wife, Esther, he founded the Mully Children's Family, a faith-based organization focused on rescuing orphaned and abandoned children. Along with shelter, education, medical care, and work opportunities, they provide a stable and loving family environment. He has rescued and rehabilitated over 35,000 children. On behalf of members of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, we presented a donation of US $121,000 (nearly KES 18.3 million) to Dr. Mulli's organization for their ongoing humanitarian efforts. During our time together, we were privileged to hear Dr. Mulli's choir, comprised of children rescued by his organization. Their performance was joyous and a true delight for Sister Rasband and me. I am thankful for Dr. Mulli's commitment to faith and service. What a blessing to be united in our efforts to bring souls closer to Jesus Christ.

Bro the Reddie Matere story is actually wild. Ogopa watu hujui hii Nairobi. This young man has a sob story. He claims he was abandoned at hospital after birth, raised by a good Samaritan who died after he finished Form 4. So he comes to Nairobi from Bungoma to hustle. He starts stalking Oga Obinna. Hangs at the shooting spot every day (Samaki Samaki) but Obinna doesn’t notice him. Next move? He goes to where Obinna drops his kids at school, tries giving the son a letter. Teacher finds it creepy. Police are involved. Obinna comes, doesn’t even know the guy. Bro gets arrested and spends 2 weeks in police custody. Obinna doesn't press any charges, so he's released. Few weeks later, he tracks down Obinna to Westlands. He sees Obinna driving to the studio… throws himself in fron of the car. Lucky Obinna wasn’t speeding. Finally Reddie Matere gets Obinna's attention. He stops and listens to the story, and tries to save him. Rents him a mabati house somewhere in Huruma, tries to record him a song because he had claimed to be a rapper. Then did an Interview, and now the plot started twisting. People recognise Reddie Matere from the interview. Turns out he’s not an orphan at all. Both parents are alive and rich. He’s just a spoilt kid and a petty thief who’s been stealing since high school Obinna calls Reddie Matere for an Interview, then brings the aunt. During this interview they call his mum, dad, grandma… Reddie denies knowing ALL of them. The Dad is ready to help him but Reddie Matere has refused. In the end Obinna gives up, hands him 2K and tells him adios. There is an old saying that says, before jumping into someone's mess to save them, make sure you’re not interrupting an important life lesson they need to learn.

During this interview they call his mum, dad, grandma… Reddie denies knowing ALL of them. The Dad is ready to help him but Reddie Matere has refused. In the end Obinna gives up, hands him 2K and tells him adios. There is an old saying that says, before jumping into someone's mess to save them, make sure you’re not interrupting an important life lesson they need to learn.

FINAL UPDATE ON KENYAN AIRWAYS/GLORIA OMISORE/OTHERS The Nigeria Civil Aviation Authority is initiating maximum enforcement action against Official Kenya Airways for a large number of consumer protection infractions. Frame 1: Official Kenya Airways Country Manager in Nigeria apologized for the Gloria Omisore incident. Frame 2: The airline admits that they should never have boarded the passenger from Lagos. The airline failed to discover the lack of a France transit visa and flew this passenger to Nairobi where she had a 17-hour layover, only to be told that she would have to endure a further 10-hour wait if she must be flown to the UK. Passenger then asks to be provided care for that 10-hour period as she is bleeding and needs to bathe. The actions of the airline staff following her request were down to poor passenger handling. Gloria Omisore was not an unruly passenger on the first leg of the flight, nor was she rude on the Lagos-Nairobi flight. Frame 3: We put the facts of the matter to the airline and rejected the misleading official statement put out by them. The determination was for the airline to update its initial statement to reflect the facts of the case. There has been no compliance. Rather, the original statement that obfuscated facts, in all of its royal 'misleading-ness', has been allowed to grow wings and fly. Take the blog post by one Charles Onyango-Obbo for instance. The writer still asserts that Gloria Omisore blatantly refused the offer to fly to London. This lie is being told despite the admission of Kenya Airways Country Manager in Nigeria, James Nganga, that the passenger only became frustrated when the 10-hour wait attached to that offer did not come with accommodation. This was a bleeding woman who had already experienced the inconvenience of a 17-hour layover. She needed to clean up, possibly have a bathe. If the airline was not going to provide the care, its staff could have handled the matter professionally. In the viral video, the airline's staff could be heard hurling insults and raising her voice in response to the infuriated passenger. James Nganga admitted in one of the videos below, that the staff's behaviour was against airline policy. The writer also claimed that the meeting between my team and the ailine held in Lagos. Simple research would have told him that the NCAA HQ is in Abuja. This is what happens when people are more interested in narrative-creation rather than facts. They know their audience. Frame 4. "Truth shouldn't be hard to tell." The NCAA gave the airline an opportunity to fix what was wrong. The airline has failed to do so. Earlier yesterday, the airline asked for an extension of one hour, after which they still failed to comply with the determination of the CAA. On Thursday, in a separate issue, the airline failed to send in a compliance report about a scheduled flight that was delayed for 7 hours with no compensation for the passengers. When confronted over a phone call, the Kenya Airways team claimed ignorance of the NCAA Regulations. We are sending them a copy of it. But, how can you operate in a foreign country with no recourse to the relevant regulations? How is this different from those who claimed that Omisore should have known the travel documents she needed for her trip? To this end, we are organising a retreat for ALL airlines operating in Nigeria to learn and relearn Part 19 of the NCAA Regulations 2023. One would expect that knowledge of all necessary regulations is essential. Added to the other long-ignored cases read out to the KQ team that attended the meeting, the CAA is dismayed by the actions of this airline. Cases of refunds not paid, lost baggage not compensated for despite admitting to losing them, and failure to honour commitments. The NCAA is, therefore, initiating stiff enforcement action against Kenya Airways. This action will go through due process. I have put our legal department on notice.

SHOULD WE LEGALIZE AN ILLEGALITY? Today, I encountered a group of hawkers who have mastered the art of creating drama and seeking public sympathy. They did everything possible to provoke me hoping I would lose my temper and react in a way that would make it seem like I was harassing them. But I maintained professionalism, composure, and restraint, even in the face of open provocation. It is unfortunate that some hawkers have normalized disorder in our city. They feel entitled to occupy pavements, block walkways, and even obstruct legitimate shop owners from accessing their customers. Many shop owners in the CBD have suffered in silence paying rent, business permits, and taxes only to have their shopfronts blocked by hawkers selling the same products, sometimes at lower prices, just to divert customers. This is not fair. It’s not lawful. And when you try to engage them politely and with understanding, some of these hawkers will shout, insult you, and create a public scene not because they’re being mistreated, but to appear as victims and gain public sympathy. This kind of manipulation makes it extremely difficult for officers to enforce the law and restore order. Let us stop using the poverty card to justify lawlessness. Poverty is not a license to break the law or deny others their right to do business peacefully. We must draw the line between genuine need and deliberate defiance of the law. I call upon members of the public when you see officers doing the right thing, support them. Understand that it’s not about harassment, it’s about restoring dignity, order, and fairness in our city. Nairobi belongs to all of us, and for it to work, we all must play by the same rules.

Rongo University saw Sodom meet Gomorrah this past weekend. Teeth were gnashing, wigs were shifting and ancestors were whispering in their Yamune native language. Daughter of Agrippina, Chebet herself,, the undefeated champion of academic hide-and-seek, decided to invite her entire village to witness her “graduation.” Aunties cooked, uncles ironed their Sunday Best & cows were slaughtered because their graduate was finally receiving the powers to go disturb employers. The only problem was that Chebet’s name was missing from the graduation list the way peace is missing from Nairobi matatus. For years, this girl has been confidently parading around campus like a full professor, collecting school fees, exam fees, and even graduation fees from her innocent parents who trusted her more than they trust their pastor. When D-Day arrived, she borrowed a graduation gown from a fellow Yamune member, Son of Adam with whom she shared not only lecture halls, but also extracurricular activities involving advanced horizontal engineering. After being given the gown, Madam Dissertation ya Uongo vanished like an M-Pesa refund. The young man,,, now gownless, heartbroken & looking like a rejected thesis, went ballistic. He combed through the graduation square, following rumours and ancestral GPS until he traced Chebet’s entire clan and demanded they produce their mikora daughter before he turned the ceremony into a full-blown episode of things fall apart. Under pressure, heat & shame, Daughter of Agrippina appeared. And that’s when hell opened a branch at Rongo University. Turns out Chebet has never attended class, Never sat for exams & Never even smelled a graduation list. She only knew the library because she used it as a route to Yamune headquarters where she was going to collect Mti wa ajabu. Years of sacrifice, fees, hopes, prayers & village fundraising disappeared faster than a politician’s manifesto after elections. The mother broke down crying tears so painful even onlookers started sniffling. The father stood frozen, reconsidering all his life choices, including why he ever believed in education. When the truth exploded like a leaking gas cylinder, Villagers who had accompanied the parents stood there, plates of pilau in hand & a bottle of pepsi, wondering whether to eat first or collapse first. The villagers later on packed their emotions, leftover pilau and disappointment, then headed back home. Hamfanyi wazi poa huku inje,, hamuogopi ata laana? Kama kawa sisi walala hoii hatuna maoni, Letu Jicho tu.👀

Another bad bad day for mikoras. This particular son of Adam decided that love is expensive and crime is on offer,, buy one get one free. Our brother shamelessly strutted into Milano Boutique like a billionaire on a government tender. The mission was to “Buy” jewelry and go surprise his found rib for Valentine’s. But the only thing he was surprising was the CCTV camera. While the shop owner was busy packaging dreams for real customers, our mikora was busy doing clearing and forwarding without KRA documentation. One necklace disappeared,, then a bracelet,, then a watch,, then a kata kundu famously known as lingerie,, all these items were hidden in the private sectors ministry. Unfortunately for him, one customer had Hawkeyes, sharper than our Kiambu Rd based sleuths. He raised an alarm & before he could launch a Kihuti, generous physiotherapists arrived to offer complementary treatment. At first, the mikora had denied stealing any item. But after the physiotherapists administered a free open-air deep tissue massage with a happy ending, suddenly items started raining down like manna from heaven. One by one,, Necklace, Ring, Watch, kata kundu,, Items that had clearly been hiding in Area 51. Meanwhile somewhere in Nairobi, a certain Russian export consultant is walking around offering Kenyan women a glass of water and getting premium access to the kilgoris riperean land. And here we have sons of Adam risking broken bones just to prove love is real. What others are accessing & enjoying with hydration therapy, mumu men are funding with orthopedic bills. Now Valentine’s weekend is loading, but instead of candlelight dinner full of high voltage electricity supply, mikora will be enjoying a romantic date with painkillers, bandages, and serious life reflections. If love requires theft or spending, my brother it’s not love,, it’s installment-based embarrassment,, Chesaa. Kama kawa sisi walala hoii hatuna maoni, Letu Jicho tu.👀

#whyilovekenya The Marsabit you never see, today allow me to share a rare clip of dense Marsabit Forest home to two crater lakes . Kenya is such a diverse nation , we should count ourselves very lucky. Lake paradise is also where Marsabit Lodge is located ( sadly it has been closed for years). It's about time that this lodge or where the lodge sits found a serious investor. The lodge sits on the rim of the lake. Spot it in the first crater lake on extreme right. All the rooms would face the lake. This can host a safari lodge with meeting rooms while the 2nd lake can host upmarket boutique safari lodge. Kenya Tourism Board KAHC Kenya NゲージのKATO Marsabit forest is also home to Ahmed one of the biggest call him giant Tusker Elephant to have ever lived. The first and only Elephant or animal that was given presidential protection in the 70s. Well the remains of Ahmed is preserved at the Nairobi National Museums. Kenya is serious about conservation. Marabit forest is home to elephants , Leopard, buffaloes, Hyenas and over 280 bird species. Thank you Kenya Wildlife Service. Kenya Wildlife Service CS Rebecca Miano, EGH Silvia Museiya, CBS for all the harwork in preserving this rare gem. A big thanks to local community my people for looking after this forest. Its about time that the local community got a share from carbon credit because this is a huge forest . Hon. Aden Duale, EGH Ministry of Environment, Climate Change & Forestry Kenya Forest Service Bee keeping on the periphery is also sustainable. The Hive Group Chris and your team we need you here. Cutting trees for charcoal is the most idiotic invention by man, its never sustainable. Larger Marsabit County is also home to many communities diverse communities and notable features are the singing wells of Marsabit . Gov Mohamud M.

South Africa Is Playing With Fire Boardrooms are now battlegrounds. Activists are marching into corporate offices across South Africa demanding that "foreigners" pack up and leave. President Cyril Ramaphosa Cyril Ramaphosa 🇿🇦 this cannot stand and here's why it's not just wrong, it's dangerously short-sighted. Please ask yourself does South Africa know how deeply it is embedded in the rest of this continent? ✅️1. MTN carries hundreds of millions of subscribers across Nigeria, Ghana, Uganda, Rwanda, Côte d'Ivoire, and beyond a South African company thriving on African soil that isn't its own.

Kenyans, Nigerians, Ghanaians, and others fill Sandton hotels, Table Mountain cable cars, and Kruger safari lodges every year, injecting real foreign currency into the South African economy. So which is it? Do you want African wallets in your tills and African bodies in your hotel beds, but not African faces in your boardrooms? Now imagine just for a moment Nigeria, Kenya, Zambia, or Ghana adopting the same logic.

The fallout for South Africa would be instant and brutal and tourism, banking, and telecoms would be the first casualties, not the last. This is the essence of glass houses and stones. You cannot build a continental empire in banking, telecoms, insurance, and tourism, and then slam the door on that same continent's citizens the moment it's convenient at home.

What happened to that Kenyan taxi driver in Qatar is barbaric, unacceptable, and a painful reminder of what our people go through every single day in the Gulf. A man simply trying to earn a living was assaulted so violently that he nearly lost his life. This is not “misconduct,” this is attempted murder and it must be condemned without hesitation. According to the dash-cam footage, the assault began after the Kenyan driver rejected an inappropriate advance from his passenger. Instead of accepting a clear “no,” the attacker grabbed him in a rear-neck chokehold that almost strangled him. The vehicle veered, nearly crashing, and that driver survived only by instinct and grace. No one should face death simply because they refused unwanted behavior. Cases like this often disappear into silence. The systems in those countries have a long history of protecting their own whenever foreigners demand justice. And our own government? It has perfected the art of shifting blame, offering excuses, and pretending they are powerless. Kenyans abroad bleed, scream, and die and Nairobi drafts statements instead of solutions. Our people in the Gulf are surviving conditions that no human being should ever be subjected to. Some are overworked. Some are abused. Some live like prisoners in employer homes. And when they rush to embassies for help, they find officials too busy enjoying diplomatic comfort to lift a finger. The suffering is real, but the offices meant to protect them are deserted when it matters. Let’s not forget the shameful truth: our Head of State negotiated the weakest, most humiliating labor terms for Kenyans in the Gulf. He goes on and on in speeches about Singapore, Japan, Korea, Malaysia yet refuses to explain why a Kenyan doing the same job as a Malaysian or Filipino earns 35,000 while others earn 55,000–60,000. That gap is not an accident; it is a failure of leadership. And that so-called Kazi Majūu project? It was nothing but smoke and slogans. Kenyans have died in Saudi Arabia from depression, abuse, negligence, sexual assault and the same ministry that promised protection cannot even bring bodies home with dignity. Families cry; the government shrugs. What hurts even more is how victims are mocked instead of defended. When Kenyans raise complaints about mistreatment, the same officials responsible for their welfare call them “mannerless,” “problematic,” or “undisciplined.” So people suffer twice first abroad, then again when their own leaders insult them for begging for help. And to those who think this is tribal banter whether the victim is Kalenjin, Kikuyu, Luo, Luhya, Somali, Meru understand this clearly: poverty, desperation, and exploitation do not check tribe before they strike. These are the jobs the president tells our youth to take, and when violence follows, no protection is offered. Only excuses. Only silence. I condemn this attack. I condemn the wider injustice. Kenyans are not disposable. Our people do not deserve violent abuse abroad and indifference at home. Until our government defends its citizens with the same energy it uses to defend its image, this cycle of suffering will continue and every death, every assault, every broken family will sit squarely on the conscience of those in power who chose to look away.

What happened to that Kenyan taxi driver in Qatar is barbaric, unacceptable, and a painful reminder of what our people go through every single day in the Gulf. A man simply trying to earn a living was assaulted so violently that he nearly lost his life. This is not “misconduct,” this is attempted murder and it must be condemned without hesitation. According to the dash-cam footage, the assault began after the Kenyan driver rejected an inappropriate advance from his passenger. Instead of accepting a clear “no,” the attacker grabbed him in a rear-neck chokehold that almost strangled him. The vehicle veered, nearly crashing, and that driver survived only by instinct and grace. No one should face death simply because they refused unwanted behavior. Cases like this often disappear into silence. The systems in those countries have a long history of protecting their own whenever foreigners demand justice. And our own government? It has perfected the art of shifting blame, offering excuses, and pretending they are powerless. Kenyans abroad bleed, scream, and die and Nairobi drafts statements instead of solutions. Our people in the Gulf are surviving conditions that no human being should ever be subjected to. Some are overworked. Some are abused. Some live like prisoners in employer homes. And when they rush to embassies for help, they find officials too busy enjoying diplomatic comfort to lift a finger. The suffering is real, but the offices meant to protect them are deserted when it matters. Let’s not forget the shameful truth: our Head of State negotiated the weakest, most humiliating labor terms for Kenyans in the Gulf. He goes on and on in speeches about Singapore, Japan, Korea, Malaysia yet refuses to explain why a Kenyan doing the same job as a Malaysian or Filipino earns 35,000 while others earn 55,000–60,000. That gap is not an accident; it is a failure of leadership. And that so-called Kazi Majūu project? It was nothing but smoke and slogans. Kenyans have died in Saudi Arabia from depression, abuse, negligence, sexual assault and the same ministry that promised protection cannot even bring bodies home with dignity. Families cry; the government shrugs. What hurts even more is how victims are mocked instead of defended. When Kenyans raise complaints about mistreatment, the same officials responsible for their welfare call them “mannerless,” “problematic,” or “undisciplined.” So people suffer twice first abroad, then again when their own leaders insult them for begging for help. And to those who think this is tribal banter whether the victim is Kalenjin, Kikuyu, Luo, Luhya, Somali, Meru understand this clearly: poverty, desperation, and exploitation do not check tribe before they strike. These are the jobs the president tells our youth to take, and when violence follows, no protection is offered. Only excuses. Only silence. I condemn this attack. I condemn the wider injustice. Kenyans are not disposable. Our people do not deserve violent abuse abroad and indifference at home. Until our government defends its citizens with the same energy it uses to defend its image, this cycle of suffering will continue and every death, every assault, every broken family will sit squarely on the conscience of those in power who chose to look away.

Confidence Pro Max: Remembering a Brother, a Filmmaker, and a Warrior Nick’s untimely death is a devastating blow to his family, friends, and Kenya as a whole. We didn’t see it coming, even after he was diagnosed in October 2025 with hypocellular myelodysplastic syndrome (h-MDS), a rare bone marrow disorder. When we went to see him in the hospital, he possessed such positive energy, he was convinced that he would beat this. He was Rambo a "one-man army" and we all believed he could beat it, too. He never looked defeated, or depressed, even as he began to lose weight. When he shaved his head in November, he sent me a photo and asked me to call him "Michael Jordan," after the Chicago Bulls legend whose signature look was a bald head. Even in sickness, he found a reason to smile. I met Nick in 2015, before he became a filmmaker. I remember him sitting in my office wearing a suit, asking for my support to go study filmmaking in Italy. After completing his course in Italy, his first major project upon his return was the award-winning documentary Softie, directed by Sam Soko. The film followed my journey as I ran for political office during the 2017 elections, and Nick was the one behind the drone shots. We became friends, and I enjoyed a front-row seat watching as he went on to document important stories. One of my favourites was his powerful 2021 BBC Africa Eye documentary, "Street Dreams." He directed and filmed a group of seven homeless young men in Nairobi who formed the "Street Family Dance Crew." He embedded with them to capture their raw determination to escape poverty, police harassment, and family issues during the COVID-19 pandemic. It is a story that feels like a distant world today; those dancers used to perform outside nightclubs in the CBD, but the city has since become a ghost town. Many bars closed down and replaced by restaurants that shut their doors by 9:00 PM. It’s a story that captured a time in Nairobi that is long gone. In 2024, Nick and I united as he covered the protests. While I participated in the demonstrations, he worked on an unnamed film and we often discussed safety tips. I was a storyteller before I was an activist, so I knew a thing or two about staying safe in the streets while documenting potentially dangerous stories. When Nick was falsely arrested in May 2025, for allegedly producing the BBC documentary, Blood Parliament - two of the three people arrested with him were working with me. I received a call shortly after their arrest and faced the difficult task of calling my colleagues' parents to deliver the news. The arrest was hostile; they were forced to hand over their phones and passwords, and when their equipment was finally returned, it was infected with spyware. What remains hidden from the public eye after an arrest are the cold cells, the degrading police interrogations, the court arraignments, the stares, and the judgment from both friends and strangers. Sometimes even the loss of clients who don’t want to be associated with “enemies of the state.” On a personal level, the trauma of such an arrest can lead to depression, alcoholism, or insomnia. In Nick’s case, his body crumbled, a hidden disease manifested, and before we could truly understand what it was, it stole him from us. His passing is an indictment of our failed healthcare system. Good healthcare is not free. We do not have enough blood in our blood banks and patients must organize their own donors in both public and private hospitals. Furthermore, specialized medical care is so expensive and out of reach that his family and friends were in the middle of fundraising for a life-saving bone marrow transplant in India. I am glad that he was able to produce his latest work, The People Shall, last year. The documentary is a first-hand eyewitness account of the events of June 25th, 2024, when a new republic was born. In his honour, and in honour of the hundreds of thousands suffering due to poor healthcare in this country, may we take our power back. Nick was good people. He had a positive attitude toward life and brought love and laughter into every room he entered. He could lift heavier weights at the gym than people much older and bigger than him. I had the chance to lift weights with him and his co-accused friends; he was so confident that he was the only one lifting bare-chested. That was 'confidence pro-max,' and he beat us in lifting heavier weights and doing more sets. In September 2025, I woke up early to ensure my son was ready to go drone filming with Nick. My son had recently acquired his drone pilot license, and Nick had taken him under his wing as he worked on a new film - a project he was looking forward to finishing. He surprised us all with his early exit on January 7th, but we thank God we had the chance to spend time with him. As we grieve Nick’s death, may his story inspire you to leave that boring job, find your purpose, and live a life that leaves an impact. I am so grateful for Nick’s life. May God comfort his family and friends and give them strength. He will be dearly missed.

TOPIC #44: BUILDING MOMENTUM FOR PI NETWORK OM Today let's discuss "building momentum". Sun Tzu was a Chinese military general, strategist, philosopher, and writer who lived during the Eastern Zhou period. Sun Tzu is traditionally credited as the author of The Art of War, an influential work of military strategy that has affected both Western and East Asian philosophy and military thought. In his chapter "Momentum" of Sun Tzu "The Art of War" said: 👉"Thus, a good warrior seeks it in the situation, not in the person, so he can choose the person and take advantage of the situation. A warrior who takes advantage of the situation fights like turning wood or stone. The nature of wood or stone is that when it is at peace, it is still; when it is in danger, it moves; when it is square, it stops; when it is round, it moves. Therefore, a warrior's situation is like turning a round stone on a mountain thousands of feet high; this is the situation." 👉Meaning: People who are good at leading troops in battle always try to create a favorable situation, and do not demand perfection from their subordinates, so they can select talents to utilize and create a favorable situation. People who are good at utilizing the situation command the army to fight, just like rolling wood and stones. The characteristics of wood and stone are that they are still when placed in a flat and stable place, and they roll when placed in a steep and rugged place. Square things are easy to be still, and round things are flexible to roll. Therefore, the favorable situation created by people who are good at commanding battles is like rolling a round stone down from a mountain, which is the so-called "momentum" ✳️Let's discuss how we can begin building good momentum before OM. In order to use the situation to successfully build momentum for OM at GCV $314,159, we need to consider our current situation: 1. We can see that blockchain shows more big amount transfers on the blockchain, such as thousands and hundreds of Pi per transaction. This could be from ecosystem payments or black market sales, but most of the thousands or hundreds seem to come from black market policy violations. We also notice that the migration speed is generally much slower, averaging around a thousand per day. We did observe that CT can reach a speed of 60,000 wallets per day. Therefore, we can estimate that migration speed is related to black market activities. When there are more black market activities, there is a higher risk to the project and CT will be more conservative. Therefore, we should focus on community education. We have an International Telegram Group where you are welcome to invite your friends or any pioneers who have gotten lost to join in. 2. Now, GCV data is much lower than before as previously estimated. This is because most of the community has used up their resources and run out of money to provide full Pi payments. Even though we don't have much GCV data, GCV still holds significant value in the hearts of most pioneers. Therefore, we can say that GCV $314,159, the primary currency function "value scale," has been successfully completed. 3. Now, we must move on to the next step: allowing Pi GCV to circulate in the Pi community ecosystem. It's crucial that we only create GCV data and not other data. "The Art of War" Chapter" Momentum" told us how to do it. 👉We should carefully consider strategies to incentivize merchants to join our ecosystem and automatically transfer pioneer purchase habits within it so that GCV data will automatically created by normal business. Since Pi is not yet recognized as a legal form of payment by any government, we are currently in the "circulate tool" phase within the community. As such, it may not be feasible to require merchants to accept full Pi payments. Understanding the operational constraints faced by merchants in this regard is essential. Merchants need FIAT for bookkeeping, government taxes, employee wages, rent, materials, and utilities. They can only ensure the sustainability of their business by accepting Pi as profit. 👉In light of the widespread economic challenges, which have resulted in high unemployment rates and financial hardships for many, businesses are also finding it tough to sell products, particularly small and emerging businesses. To support these businesses, we could introduce a phased approach, allowing them to accept partial payments in both FIAT and Pi, and gradually transition to full Pi payments when OM. This approach will undoubtedly be beneficial for them, and could contribute to GCV data generation. 👉Similarly, for pioneers facing financial difficulties due to inflation and unemployment, the option to save money on essential expenses through a combination of partial Pi and FIAT payments would be welcomed. It's crucial to highlight the potential benefits and savings that could be achieved through this approach, contributing to the growth of GCV as well. 🙏Implementing a method aligned with these practices will serve to attract more merchants and pioneers to join our network. Furthermore, broadening our user base and promoting the use of Pi for transactions is pivotal for the success of our ecosystem. This approach could lead to a collaborative and mutually beneficial ecosystem, providing value to all participants and driving the momentum of the Pi Network. ✳️In Conclusion: Only when we understand the situation well can we build momentum that benefits the Pi Network community as a whole. In this manner, the Pi Network ecosystem will exhibit heightened activity, and the GCV data will possess a robust and well-established foundation. When OM, there will be no uncertainty or necessity for CT announcements pertaining to the price. This is owing to widespread acceptance and acknowledgment of GCV within the pioneering and merchant as well as among service providers, over a span of 5 months. It is inconceivable that Dr. Nicolas would disavow GCV as the price established by pioneers. Hence, without a shadow of doubt, GCV will emerge as the price when OM. According to The Art of War, building momentum is crucial for success in any important situation. Of course, it applies to Pi Network as well! 👉Today, a video featuring products from the Canadian GCV merchant "Maiden's Heart" was published. The merchant accepts 70% fiat and 30% Pi payment and offers free shipping to the USA and Canada, with all prices inclusive of shipping fees.

In October 2025, the Prime Minister undertook a series of national and international engagements focused on infrastructure development, rural transformation, governance reform, and diplomatic cooperation. Here is a brief recap of the past month: 𝙊𝙣 𝙐𝙧𝙗𝙖𝙣 𝘿𝙚𝙫𝙚𝙡𝙤𝙥𝙢𝙚𝙣𝙩 𝙖𝙣𝙙 𝙁𝙤𝙧𝙚𝙞𝙜𝙣 𝘿𝙞𝙧𝙚𝙘𝙩 𝙄𝙣𝙫𝙚𝙨𝙩𝙢𝙚𝙣𝙩 A defining highlight of the month was the laying of the foundation stone for the urea fertilizer plant, a landmark project developed through a partnership between Ethiopian Investment Holdings and the Dangote Group. With an annual production capacity of three million tons, the plant will utilize natural gas from the Calub gas fields, transported through a 108-kilometer pipeline. This project is a cornerstone of Ethiopia’s strategy to achieve fertilizer self-sufficiency and enhance agricultural productivity. In the Somali Region, the Prime Minister also inaugurated the Gode Oil Refinery, developed by Golden Concord Group Limited (GCL). The refinery, designed to process 3.5 million tons of crude oil and condensate per year from the Hilala oil field, represents a significant step in Ethiopia’s path toward energy independence. Complementing these milestones, the Prime Minister inaugurated the first phase of the Ogaden Liquified Natural Gas (LNG) Project in Calub. The facility, with an annual production capacity of 111 million litres and the ability to generate 1,000 megawatts of energy, strengthens Ethiopia’s industrial base while contributing critical inputs to fertilizer production and energy generation. During his visit to Jigjiga in the Somali Region, the Prime Minister observed the city’s rapid transformation since his last visit in January 2025. Thousands of new housing units are under construction, and corridor development projects are visibly enhancing urban well-being. He lauded the Dine for Generations Project, nearing completion in the Somali Region, for unlocking new opportunities in tourism and stimulating regional economic growth. Prime Minister Abiy Ahmed, accompanied by members of the Prosperity Party Executive Committee, visited the corridor development project extending from Sar Bet to German Square, encompassing the Garment Factory and the Furi area. Spanning 589 hectares, it is the second-largest urban corridor after Kazanchis. The project features 16.5 kilometers of asphalt roads, 33 kilometers of pedestrian walkways, plazas, sports and recreation facilities, riverbank development, and over 1,100 commercial shops. The initiative embodies Ethiopia’s broader vision of creating modern, livable, and economically vibrant cities. 𝙊𝙣 𝙍𝙪𝙧𝙖𝙡 𝙏𝙧𝙖𝙣𝙨𝙛𝙤𝙧𝙢𝙖𝙩𝙞𝙤𝙣 𝙖𝙣𝙙 𝘼𝙜𝙧𝙞𝙘𝙪𝙡𝙩𝙪𝙧𝙖𝙡 𝙈𝙤𝙙𝙚𝙧𝙣𝙞𝙯𝙖𝙩𝙞𝙤𝙣 Advancing his government’s rural development agenda, the Prime Minister presided over the handover of model rural villages constructed through the Rainy Season Voluntary Scheme in the Halaba, Kembatta, Hadiya, and Silte zones. Each home in these Rural Corridor Villages is equipped with solar power, biogas systems, sanitation facilities, and animal shelters, significantly improving hygiene, comfort, and productivity for rural families. These model villages mark a new chapter in Ethiopia’s mission to raise rural living standards and promote sustainable livelihoods. The Prime Minister encouraged regional leaders to expand these initiatives, setting a target of 100 new houses per zone by next year. During his visit to the East Shewa Zone of the Oromia Region, the Prime Minister also reviewed the rainy season wheat harvest and launched summer wheat production activities. He assessed progress in banana, papaya, and fish farming clusters, emphasizing the growing adoption of mechanized agriculture as a major driver of productivity and self-reliance. He also inaugurated the Welmel River Irrigation Development Project in Delo-Mena Woreda, Bale Zone. Once fully operational, the project will irrigate 9,687 hectares of farmland, benefiting 20,000 farming households and enhancing drought resilience, food sovereignty, and rural employment. 𝙊𝙣 𝙀𝙘𝙤𝙣𝙤𝙢𝙞𝙘 𝙂𝙤𝙫𝙚𝙧𝙣𝙖𝙣𝙘𝙚 𝙖𝙣𝙙 𝙈𝙖𝙘𝙧𝙤𝙚𝙘𝙤𝙣𝙤𝙢𝙞𝙘 𝙍𝙚𝙫𝙞𝙚𝙬 At the Koysha Project site, the Prime Minister convened a strategic review session with the Council of Ministers to assess the macroeconomic performance of the first 100 days of the 2018 Ethiopian Fiscal Year. The review examined achievements, challenges, and strategic priorities, highlighting Ethiopia’s sustained economic resilience amid global uncertainty. The nation’s GDP growth rate stood at 9.2 percent for the 2017 fiscal year, underscoring the success of reforms aimed at fostering inclusive and diversified growth. 𝙊𝙣 𝙅𝙪𝙙𝙞𝙘𝙞𝙖𝙡 𝙈𝙤𝙙𝙚𝙧𝙣𝙞𝙨𝙖𝙩𝙞𝙤𝙣 𝙩𝙝𝙧𝙤𝙪𝙜𝙝 𝘿𝙞𝙜𝙞𝙩𝙖𝙡 𝙏𝙧𝙖𝙣𝙨𝙛𝙤𝙧𝙢𝙖𝙩𝙞𝙤𝙣 Building on the success of the Digital 2025 Strategy, the Prime Minister announced the forthcoming Digital 2030 Strategy, focused on advancing automation and improving public service delivery. He commended the Federal Supreme Court for implementing a Smart Court System featuring automated transcription, virtual hearings, and an Integrated Case Management System that enables litigants to track cases online. Covering 24 federal branches to date, this innovation marks an important step toward transparent and accessible justice across Ethiopia. 𝙊𝙣 𝙈𝙚𝙙𝙞𝙖, 𝘾𝙪𝙡𝙩𝙪𝙧𝙚, 𝙖𝙣𝙙 𝙏𝙤𝙪𝙧𝙞𝙨𝙢 Prime Minister Abiy Ahmed attended the launch of the pan-African media outlet Pulse of Africa, a platform he first proposed during the 35th Ordinary Session of the African Union Assembly in 2022. The initiative seeks to amplify African perspectives, counter negative portrayals of the continent, and strengthen African unity through shared narratives. In his remarks, the Prime Minister emphasized that Pulse of Africa marks a significant step toward ensuring that Africans tell their own stories and shape their global image. Accompanied by First Lady Zinash Tayachew and a high-level delegation of former and current leaders, the Prime Minister also visited the Bale Zone to assess key development projects that integrate natural heritage with national progress. The delegation toured the Bale Mountains National Park, one of Ethiopia’s most ecologically diverse and economically significant natural areas. The Prime Minister observed ongoing tourism developments, including the nearly completed Dinsho Lodge at the heart of the park and the Sof Omer Luxury Lodge near the Sof Omer Cave. Both projects are designed to advance Ethiopia’s Ten-Year Strategic Plan by positioning tourism as a catalyst for economic transformation. The Sof Omer Cave Development Project complements these initiatives by improving access and visitor facilities around one of the country’s most celebrated natural landmarks. The delegation also inspected the Robe–Goro–Sof Omer–GinirJunction Road Upgrading Project, a dual asphalt roadway featuring five bridges that connect the productive agricultural zones of East Bale and Bale with central Ethiopia. The upgraded route enhances regional mobility, strengthens economic integration, and improves access to major tourist destinations such as the Bale Mountains National Park and Sof Omer Cave. In addition, the Prime Minister reviewed the Weib River Flood Control Project, which regulates water flow through the cave system to ensure year-round accessibility and protect its ecosystem. He also examined tourism development efforts in the Harenna cluster, including the construction of the Rira Eco Lodge, new viewpoints, restaurants, and coffee facilities along the routes leading to Tulu Dimtu, the park’s highest peak. These initiatives aim to expand sustainable tourism, create local employment, and showcase the natural and cultural richness of the Bale region. The visit concluded at the Fincha Habera Waterfall, where the delegation explored the surrounding landscape, home to the Ethiopian Red Fox, diverse birdlife, and striking geological formations such as the Rafu rock pinnacles. The area, which recently revealed a newly discovered cave system, will soon feature a glamping site designed to promote eco-friendly tourism. Reflecting on the visit, Prime Minister Abiy highlighted Ethiopia as a land of abundance and opportunity, urging citizens to safeguard and build upon the nation’s natural and human wealth for future generations. The delegation collectively reaffirmed the importance of stewardship, unity, and visionary development in shaping Ethiopia’s sustainable and prosperous future. 𝙋𝙖𝙧𝙡𝙞𝙖𝙢𝙚𝙣𝙩𝙖𝙧𝙮 𝙀𝙣𝙜𝙖𝙜𝙚𝙢𝙚𝙣𝙩 𝙖𝙣𝙙 𝙉𝙖𝙩𝙞𝙤𝙣𝙖𝙡 𝘿𝙞𝙨𝙘𝙤𝙪𝙧𝙨𝙚 Prime Minister Abiy Ahmed, in his recent address to Ethiopia’s Parliament, highlighted the country’s substantial progress in economic reform, diversification, and infrastructure development. He noted that Ethiopia’s shift from an agriculture-dependent economy toward industrial and service growth has yielded impressive results, citing rapid agricultural expansion, record-high export revenues, and increased foreign reserves. Major investments in green initiatives, transport infrastructure, and energy projects are transforming productivity and sustainability, while prudent debt management and targeted subsidies have stabilized inflation. He emphasized the government’s focus on strengthening institutional capacity, expanding digitalization, training millions of youth in coding, and modernizing service delivery through nationwide one-stop centers. On peace and governance, the Prime Minister reaffirmed Ethiopia’s commitment to stability, dialogue, and national unity, warning against both internal and external actors seeking to destabilize the country. He stressed that the only viable path for Ethiopia is peaceful political transition and democratic consolidation.

In October 2025, the Prime Minister undertook a series of national and international engagements focused on infrastructure development, rural transformation, governance reform, and diplomatic cooperation. Here is a brief recap of the past month: 𝙊𝙣 𝙐𝙧𝙗𝙖𝙣 𝘿𝙚𝙫𝙚𝙡𝙤𝙥𝙢𝙚𝙣𝙩 𝙖𝙣𝙙 𝙁𝙤𝙧𝙚𝙞𝙜𝙣 𝘿𝙞𝙧𝙚𝙘𝙩 𝙄𝙣𝙫𝙚𝙨𝙩𝙢𝙚𝙣𝙩 A defining highlight of the month was the laying of the foundation stone for the urea fertilizer plant, a landmark project developed through a partnership between Ethiopian Investment Holdings and the Dangote Group. With an annual production capacity of three million tons, the plant will utilize natural gas from the Calub gas fields, transported through a 108-kilometer pipeline. This project is a cornerstone of Ethiopia’s strategy to achieve fertilizer self-sufficiency and enhance agricultural productivity. In the Somali Region, the Prime Minister also inaugurated the Gode Oil Refinery, developed by Golden Concord Group Limited (GCL). The refinery, designed to process 3.5 million tons of crude oil and condensate per year from the Hilala oil field, represents a significant step in Ethiopia’s path toward energy independence. Complementing these milestones, the Prime Minister inaugurated the first phase of the Ogaden Liquified Natural Gas (LNG) Project in Calub. The facility, with an annual production capacity of 111 million litres and the ability to generate 1,000 megawatts of energy, strengthens Ethiopia’s industrial base while contributing critical inputs to fertilizer production and energy generation. During his visit to Jigjiga in the Somali Region, the Prime Minister observed the city’s rapid transformation since his last visit in January 2025. Thousands of new housing units are under construction, and corridor development projects are visibly enhancing urban well-being. He lauded the Dine for Generations Project, nearing completion in the Somali Region, for unlocking new opportunities in tourism and stimulating regional economic growth. Prime Minister Abiy Ahmed, accompanied by members of the Prosperity Party Executive Committee, visited the corridor development project extending from Sar Bet to German Square, encompassing the Garment Factory and the Furi area. Spanning 589 hectares, it is the second-largest urban corridor after Kazanchis. The project features 16.5 kilometers of asphalt roads, 33 kilometers of pedestrian walkways, plazas, sports and recreation facilities, riverbank development, and over 1,100 commercial shops. The initiative embodies Ethiopia’s broader vision of creating modern, livable, and economically vibrant cities. 𝙊𝙣 𝙍𝙪𝙧𝙖𝙡 𝙏𝙧𝙖𝙣𝙨𝙛𝙤𝙧𝙢𝙖𝙩𝙞𝙤𝙣 𝙖𝙣𝙙 𝘼𝙜𝙧𝙞𝙘𝙪𝙡𝙩𝙪𝙧𝙖𝙡 𝙈𝙤𝙙𝙚𝙧𝙣𝙞𝙯𝙖𝙩𝙞𝙤𝙣 Advancing his government’s rural development agenda, the Prime Minister presided over the handover of model rural villages constructed through the Rainy Season Voluntary Scheme in the Halaba, Kembatta, Hadiya, and Silte zones. Each home in these Rural Corridor Villages is equipped with solar power, biogas systems, sanitation facilities, and animal shelters, significantly improving hygiene, comfort, and productivity for rural families. These model villages mark a new chapter in Ethiopia’s mission to raise rural living standards and promote sustainable livelihoods. The Prime Minister encouraged regional leaders to expand these initiatives, setting a target of 100 new houses per zone by next year. During his visit to the East Shewa Zone of the Oromia Region, the Prime Minister also reviewed the rainy season wheat harvest and launched summer wheat production activities. He assessed progress in banana, papaya, and fish farming clusters, emphasizing the growing adoption of mechanized agriculture as a major driver of productivity and self-reliance. He also inaugurated the Welmel River Irrigation Development Project in Delo-Mena Woreda, Bale Zone. Once fully operational, the project will irrigate 9,687 hectares of farmland, benefiting 20,000 farming households and enhancing drought resilience, food sovereignty, and rural employment. 𝙊𝙣 𝙀𝙘𝙤𝙣𝙤𝙢𝙞𝙘 𝙂𝙤𝙫𝙚𝙧𝙣𝙖𝙣𝙘𝙚 𝙖𝙣𝙙 𝙈𝙖𝙘𝙧𝙤𝙚𝙘𝙤𝙣𝙤𝙢𝙞𝙘 𝙍𝙚𝙫𝙞𝙚𝙬 At the Koysha Project site, the Prime Minister convened a strategic review session with the Council of Ministers to assess the macroeconomic performance of the first 100 days of the 2018 Ethiopian Fiscal Year. The review examined achievements, challenges, and strategic priorities, highlighting Ethiopia’s sustained economic resilience amid global uncertainty. The nation’s GDP growth rate stood at 9.2 percent for the 2017 fiscal year, underscoring the success of reforms aimed at fostering inclusive and diversified growth. 𝙊𝙣 𝙅𝙪𝙙𝙞𝙘𝙞𝙖𝙡 𝙈𝙤𝙙𝙚𝙧𝙣𝙞𝙨𝙖𝙩𝙞𝙤𝙣 𝙩𝙝𝙧𝙤𝙪𝙜𝙝 𝘿𝙞𝙜𝙞𝙩𝙖𝙡 𝙏𝙧𝙖𝙣𝙨𝙛𝙤𝙧𝙢𝙖𝙩𝙞𝙤𝙣 Building on the success of the Digital 2025 Strategy, the Prime Minister announced the forthcoming Digital 2030 Strategy, focused on advancing automation and improving public service delivery. He commended the Federal Supreme Court for implementing a Smart Court System featuring automated transcription, virtual hearings, and an Integrated Case Management System that enables litigants to track cases online. Covering 24 federal branches to date, this innovation marks an important step toward transparent and accessible justice across Ethiopia. 𝙊𝙣 𝙈𝙚𝙙𝙞𝙖, 𝘾𝙪𝙡𝙩𝙪𝙧𝙚, 𝙖𝙣𝙙 𝙏𝙤𝙪𝙧𝙞𝙨𝙢 Prime Minister Abiy Ahmed attended the launch of the pan-African media outlet Pulse of Africa, a platform he first proposed during the 35th Ordinary Session of the African Union Assembly in 2022. The initiative seeks to amplify African perspectives, counter negative portrayals of the continent, and strengthen African unity through shared narratives. In his remarks, the Prime Minister emphasized that Pulse of Africa marks a significant step toward ensuring that Africans tell their own stories and shape their global image. Accompanied by First Lady Zinash Tayachew and a high-level delegation of former and current leaders, the Prime Minister also visited the Bale Zone to assess key development projects that integrate natural heritage with national progress. The delegation toured the Bale Mountains National Park, one of Ethiopia’s most ecologically diverse and economically significant natural areas. The Prime Minister observed ongoing tourism developments, including the nearly completed Dinsho Lodge at the heart of the park and the Sof Omer Luxury Lodge near the Sof Omer Cave. Both projects are designed to advance Ethiopia’s Ten-Year Strategic Plan by positioning tourism as a catalyst for economic transformation. The Sof Omer Cave Development Project complements these initiatives by improving access and visitor facilities around one of the country’s most celebrated natural landmarks. The delegation also inspected the Robe–Goro–Sof Omer–GinirJunction Road Upgrading Project, a dual asphalt roadway featuring five bridges that connect the productive agricultural zones of East Bale and Bale with central Ethiopia. The upgraded route enhances regional mobility, strengthens economic integration, and improves access to major tourist destinations such as the Bale Mountains National Park and Sof Omer Cave. In addition, the Prime Minister reviewed the Weib River Flood Control Project, which regulates water flow through the cave system to ensure year-round accessibility and protect its ecosystem. He also examined tourism development efforts in the Harenna cluster, including the construction of the Rira Eco Lodge, new viewpoints, restaurants, and coffee facilities along the routes leading to Tulu Dimtu, the park’s highest peak. These initiatives aim to expand sustainable tourism, create local employment, and showcase the natural and cultural richness of the Bale region. The visit concluded at the Fincha Habera Waterfall, where the delegation explored the surrounding landscape, home to the Ethiopian Red Fox, diverse birdlife, and striking geological formations such as the Rafu rock pinnacles. The area, which recently revealed a newly discovered cave system, will soon feature a glamping site designed to promote eco-friendly tourism. Reflecting on the visit, Prime Minister Abiy highlighted Ethiopia as a land of abundance and opportunity, urging citizens to safeguard and build upon the nation’s natural and human wealth for future generations. The delegation collectively reaffirmed the importance of stewardship, unity, and visionary development in shaping Ethiopia’s sustainable and prosperous future.

He noted that Ethiopia’s shift from an agriculture-dependent economy toward industrial and service growth has yielded impressive results, citing rapid agricultural expansion, record-high export revenues, and increased foreign reserves. Major investments in green initiatives, transport infrastructure, and energy projects are transforming productivity and sustainability, while prudent debt management and targeted subsidies have stabilized inflation. He emphasized the government’s focus on strengthening institutional capacity, expanding digitalization, training millions of youth in coding, and modernizing service delivery through nationwide one-stop centers. On peace and governance, the Prime Minister reaffirmed Ethiopia’s commitment to stability, dialogue, and national unity, warning against both internal and external actors seeking to destabilize the country. He stressed that the only viable path for Ethiopia is peaceful political transition and democratic consolidation. Looking ahead to the upcoming national election, he assured Parliament of the government’s readiness to ensure a fair and inclusive process. On foreign relations, he reiterated Ethiopia’s right to equitable use of the Nile waters and called for cooperative engagement with neighboring countries.
