How The Government of Kenya is Spying on Your Phone: An Urgent Exposé of State Surveillance

During the recent Gen Z-led protests that shook William Ruto personally and his administration to its very core, many Kenyans found themselves asking a chilling question: How did the police track them down so easily, even in the supposed safety of their homes? Scores of activists and protesters were abducted, many never to be seen again. Suspicion quickly fell on Safaricom and Kenya Power, accused of handing over personal information to a rogue state. But the truth may be even more disturbing—and far simpler than most would imagine... In a revelation that will shock every Kenyan, your private communications—phone calls, texts, and even your physical location—is being monitored without your knowledge. The Kenyan government has been accused of engaging in widespread surveillance of its citizens, using sophisticated tools provided by Israeli cyber-espionage firm Circles. This disturbing information was uncovered in a damning report by Citizen Lab, a digital rights watchdog based at the Un

When You Sup With The Devil, You Better Have A Long Spoon: Anne Njeri's 17 Billion Oil Adventure Comes To A Screeching Halt

In recent years, Kenya has been plagued by a series of scandals involving the country's lucrative oil industry. One such case that has captured national attention is the infamous KSh 17 billion oil scandal involving Anne Njeri, an oil billionaire who found herself entangled in a web of deceit and corruption orchestrated by oil cartels.

Anne Njeri made headlines when she claimed ownership of a massive oil consignment worth KSh 17 billion, alleging that she had been shortchanged in a deal to import 100,000 metric tonnes of diesel from Saudi Arabia.

However, her claims were met with scepticism from the public and opposition leaders like Raila Odinga, who accused her of being a pawn in the hands of oil cartels seeking to conceal their illegal activities.

Despite Njeri's efforts to defend her alleged purchase of the multi-billion-shilling commodity, the judiciary saw through the facade. In a scathing rebuke, Justice Kizito Magare dismissed Njeri's case, citing a lack of evidence to substantiate her claims. He likened her amateurish attempts to those seen in movies like "Money Heist," urging her to cease indulging in such fantasies.

This case sheds light on the pervasive influence of oil cartels in Kenya's economy and the dangers of colluding with a government tainted by corruption. It exposes the lengths to which these cartels will go to manipulate the system for their own gain, at the expense of honest businesspeople.

Moreover, it underscores the need for stringent regulatory measures to curb the activities of these cartels and ensure transparency and accountability in the oil industry. The government must take decisive action to root out corruption and prosecute those involved in illicit activities, regardless of their stature or influence.

Furthermore, Anne Njeri's ordeal serves as a cautionary tale for individuals tempted to engage in shady deals with unscrupulous actors. The allure of quick wealth can blind even the most discerning individuals to the risks involved, leading them down a path of ruin and disgrace.


The KSh 17 billion oil scandal involving Anne Njeri exposes the dark underbelly of Kenya's oil industry and the pervasive influence of corrupt cartels. It serves as a wake-up call for authorities to take decisive action against corruption and for individuals to exercise caution in their business dealings. Only through collective efforts can Kenya rid itself of the scourge of corruption and build a more just and equitable society for all its citizens.
