Description (show more)

In Nairobi, rescue operations are in overdrive after an 18-storey building under construction in Eastleigh collapsed, leaving several people trapped under the rubble and sparking urgent questions over regulatory enforcement and accountability.  Meanwhile, political shockwaves hit Parliament on Thursday as the National Assembly controversially passed the Elections (Amendment) Bill, officially scrapping the legal requirement for the Independent Electoral and Boundaries Commission (IEBC) to live-stream polling station results ahead of the 2027 polls. With transparency advocates sounding the alarm, all eyes now turn to the Senate—where Senator Edwin Sifuna stands as a critical line of defense to challenge or amend these contentious changes.  Watch till the end for a comprehensive breakdown of what these developments mean for public safety, transparency, and the future of Kenya's electoral integrity. 🔔 Subscribe for real-time updates on Kenyan politics, breaking news, and in-depth analysis.
