The Ol Kalou parliamentary seat in Nyandarua County opened up after three-term Jubilee MP David Njuguna Kiaraho passed away on March 29, 2026, at Nairobi Hospital.

While Jubilee's Jeremiah Kioni urges opposition unity and zoning, neither side has confirmed, making this a key test of alliances ahead of 2027 in Mount Kenya.

On the 'Iko Nini?' podcast, Fanya Mambo Kinuthia said the unnamed governor's demand drove F1 officials to Rwanda instead, linking it to lost opportunities like an NBA arena and other projects. He offered no names, dates, or proof, framing it as a secondhand cautionary tale about corruption. Skeptics quickly pointed out Kasarani Stadium is run by national Sports Kenya, not the county, and F1 facts don't match—promoters build tracks, Rwanda's bid is for 2029, and no records show interest in Nairobi. The claim highlights ongoing frustrations over graft but faces heavy pushback as unverified.

Key Takeaway

A political commentator shared a story of a Nairobi governor allegedly scaring off Formula One investors with a 100 million shilling bribe demand. Listeners reacted with a mix of anger and doubt.

IMC Construction Kenya, fully owned by Chivayo, partnered with China's CCCC and CRBC for Jomo Kenyatta International Airport's expansion, which includes a new terminal for 10-15 million more passengers yearly and a second runway by 2029. The Sh375 billion project follows the 2024 collapse of an Adani Group bid amid bribery charges and protests, with critics like the Law Society of Kenya decrying lack of transparency and Chivayo's ZANU-PF ties plus past convictions for theft and undelivered solar projects. Kenyans online highlighted the irony by comparing JKIA to Harare's recently upgraded airport, questioning why Chivayo isn't fixing things at home first, while calls mount for full tender details.

Key Takeaway

Kenyan media revealed that a firm owned by Wicknell Chivayo, a Zimbabwean with a fraud-tainted past, has joined the massive $2.9 billion airport upgrade—just after photos surfaced of him meeting President Ruto at State House.

In a June 17 letter, the Vatican's Dicastery for Divine Worship denied the German Bishops' Conference request to allow laypeople to preach in place of homilies, even in crises.

This follows Rome's rejections of other German Synodal Way proposals, while urging better priest training to address pastoral needs. Traditionalists hailed the decision, while progressives voiced disappointment.

Key Takeaway

Germany's Catholic bishops turned to the Vatican for help amid a priest shortage, asking if laypeople could step in to give homilies during Mass. Rome said no, holding firm on tradition.
