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

William Ruto's Broken Promises: A Scathing Indictment of Kenya's Disillusioned Hustler Nation

In a startling revelation, Transport CS Kipchumba Murkomen finally admitted, "Hatupeani kazi hapa!" – We are not giving out jobs here!

This admission echoes the growing realization among Ruto's core voters, the Hustler Nation, that they've been duped. The promised jobs and prosperity were nothing but a façade.

When William Ruto assumed office as Kenya's fifth president, he pledged to tackle corruption, entrench good governance, and prioritize the needs of the poor. However, despite lofty promises, Ruto's tenure has been marred by economic turmoil and broken commitments.

Despite initial efforts to thaw tensions between branches of government and relocate port operations, Ruto has failed to address Kenya's economic woes. Rising food and fuel prices, coupled with high unemployment, have left Kenyans worse off than before.

While Ruto rolled out initiatives like the "Hustler Fund" to supposedly empower the marginalized, his administration's punitive tax regime and struggling economy have undermined any positive impact. Moreover, promises to uphold the rule of law and combat corruption remain largely unfulfilled.

Despite approving judicial appointments and allocating more funding to the judiciary, Ruto's failure to address corruption within the system and establish a commission of inquiry into state capture undermines his commitment to justice.

Additionally, Ruto's handling of national cohesion has been disappointing, with appointments tainted by nepotism and ethnic politics. His willingness to engage in talks with opposition elites at the expense of his core constituency further erodes confidence in his leadership.

As Kenya remains divided along economic, ethnic, and regional lines, Ruto's failure to deliver on his promises jeopardizes his chances of reelection. To regain legitimacy and reconnect with the disillusioned Hustler Nation, Ruto must prioritize their needs and tackle corruption head-on.

William Ruto's presidency has been characterized by broken promises and disillusionment. The reality facing Kenya's Hustler Nation exposes the lies and deception of Ruto's political rhetoric. Unless drastic measures are taken to address economic hardships and corruption, Ruto's legacy will be one of unfulfilled promises and betrayed trust.
