Cherargei: Raila must return hand after AU win

Senator Samson Cherargei has called on Raila Odinga to reciprocate the support he has received from President William Ruto in his bid for the African Union Commission (AUC) chairmanship.

"In 2007, H.E Ruto campaigned hard and voted for Baba Raila. In 2025, he is campaigning hard and shall vote for Raila in the African Union chairmanship today, which Raila has never done for him," Cherargei said.

He expressed hope that Raila would one day return the favour.

"I hope in the near future Baba Raila atarudisha mkono because he shall win today," he added.

Ruto reportedly plans to change his Deputy in new deal

President William Ruto reportedly struck a deal to replace Deputy President Kithure Kindiki with Prime Cabinet Secretary Musalia Mudavadi in 2027.

Sources familiar with the agreement reveal that Mudavadi will become Ruto’s running mate in the next election, positioning him as the preferred successor in 2032.

The deal, sealed behind closed doors, was part of Mudavadi’s decision to dissolve the Amani National Congress (ANC) and fully integrate into the United Democratic Alliance (UDA).

In return, Ruto commits to making him his deputy, sidelining Kindiki, who is set to be offered a senior government role.

Why IG Kanja and DCI boss Amin want abduction case thrown out

Inspector General of Police Douglas Kanja and DCI boss Mohammed Amin have petitioned the court to dismiss an abduction case filed against them by the Law Society of Kenya (LSK).

LSK had accused the police of being responsible for the disappearance of seven youths on Christmas Eve and demanded their immediate production in court.

However, the officers’ lawyer, Paul Nyamodi, argued that it was unreasonable to expect them to produce individuals whose whereabouts were unknown.

Interior CS Kipchumba Murkomen also defended the police, insisting that they were not involved in the disappearances.

TikTok star Tizian Savage now broke, begs for support after alleged sponsor dumps him

Tizian Savage, the TikTok sensation who rose to fame two years ago with his viral videos, is now allegedly struggling and appealing for financial support after his lavish lifestyle came to an abrupt end.

Reports suggest that the young man, once living in luxury, was being financed by an affluent older woman.

She reportedly provided him with a fully furnished three-bedroom house, a brand-new Mazda CX-5, high-end fashion, and an extravagant lifestyle filled with fine dining and luxury.

However, sources now allege that the benefactor has cut ties with him, repossessing the car and freezing his accounts.

Tizian is said to have moved to a bedsitter, with no car, no money, and no Samsung S24—just his signature dyed hair, national ID, and motorbike riding skills.

The social media star is now appealing to Kenyans of goodwill for financial assistance or, as some reports claim, hoping to be connected with another sponsor to help him regain his former lifestyle.

Payback time as Raila-allied MPs resolve to impeach Wetangula

A fresh impeachment motion against National Assembly Speaker Moses Wetangula is gaining momentum as opposition MPs intensify their efforts to remove him from office.

The Azimio Coalition accuses Wetangula of bias, particularly in his ruling that declared Kenya Kwanza the majority party in Parliament, contradicting an earlier High Court decision that recognized Azimio's majority status.

During a high-level meeting in Karen, opposition MPs resolved to push for Wetangula’s removal, citing his handling of parliamentary matters, including his stance on the defection of 14 Azimio MPs to Kenya Kwanza.
