When guns go silent, music rings in their place.
Among the flowers blooming in Kerio Valley following the return of peace is a renewed expression of Pokot music and culture.
The youth now have the space to express themselves through music and dance, while communities have the peace to celebrate and enjoy their creativity.
This afternoon, I met three leading music talents from the Pokot community: Arap Tudoreng, Pokot Boy and Babylupi Tiatydota in Nairobi.
We discussed how music can be harnessed to promote peace, encourage education and steer young people away from crime and other negative influences.
The Government will partner with and support young people from banditry-prone areas to nurture their talents, create opportunities and accelerate development in their communities.

I have never attended a presidential inauguration because I spent my whole political life in opposition with Raila. Before he died, he handed me over to Ruto. I accepted. The era of permanent opposition is over. I will not keep my people outside government just to look pure.
In 2027 I will finally attend one from the inside. Never again will I sacrifice my people on the altar of opposition politics.

Herman Manyora with HARSH TRUTHS: "Politicians are the dumbest, they don't learn from mistakes and history, they use old maps to find new lands and that's why they end up miserable. The Opposition will not unite because of greed and President Ruto will win his second term"

This morning, I officially opened the 2026 Formation Commanders Conference (FCC) at the Moran Centre, Karen.
The conference brings together the senior leadership of the Kenya Defence Forces, including the Chief of the Defence Forces, General Charles Kahariri, the Principal Secretary for Defence, Dr. Patrick Mariru, Service Commanders and Senior Military Officers, to deliberate on the evolving security environment and the leadership, capabilities and strategic responses required to address emerging threats.
Held under the theme, “ *Preparing the Future Force: Leadership, Innovation and Modernisation,* ” the conference comes at a time when the security environment is undergoing significant change, shaped by emerging threats, regional instability and rapid technological advancements. These developments call for a Defence Force that is forward-looking, innovative and equipped to respond effectively to both present and future security challenges.
Equally important is the welfare, professional development and well-being of our service personnel and their families, who remain central to the operational effectiveness of the Force.
The Chief of the Defence Forces’ vision of “One Force, Mission Ready” remains central to our collective efforts. Building the Defence Force of tomorrow requires deliberate policy choices, sustained investment and capable leadership today.
I reaffirm the Ministry’s commitment to supporting a professional, modern and mission-ready KDF, and commend our officers and service personnel for their continued dedication to the defence of our Republic.

The craziest part of the Onesimus story is that colonial America almost chose mass death over admitting a Black man knew something they didn't.

Honestly, the more I read about Oscar Hammonds, the more obvious it becomes that American history is full of Black experts the country quietly relied on while pretending they barely existed.

Humanitarian assistance to refugees remains essential, particularly for vulnerable populations. These efforts must, however, be complemented by development investments that promote self-reliance and strengthen local economies.
Through the Government's Shirika Plan, we are promoting the socioeconomic inclusion of refugees and, at the same time, ensuring that the investments also benefit host communities.
This morning, at the 6th Kakuma Kalobeyei Challenge Fund – Learning and Strategy Conference in Nairobi, we reviewed the progress made in the implementation of the Shirika Plan.
We discussed strategies to promote economic growth and employment creation among refugees and host communities, paying great attention to the role of the private sector in spurring economic development in these areas.
The conference brought together national government officials, leaders from host communities, refugee representatives, and development partners.
Present were Dr. Belio Kipsang – Principal Secretary, Immigration and Citizen Services, Hon. Nathif Jama – Governor of Garissa County, Hon. Dr. Jeremiah Lomorukai – Governor of Turkana County, Dr. John Erus – Deputy Governor, Turkana County, Ms. Jumoke Jagun-Dokunmu – Chief Investment Officer & Head of Fragility, Africa, International Finance Corporation (IFC), and Ms. Robin Ellis – Deputy Representative, Kenya, UNHCR.
