Ruto Aide Warns of Freezing Uhuru Kenyatta's Funds Over Rally ClaimsFebruary 18, 2026 9:40 PM Full SummaryKibet, a close aide to President William Ruto, accused Uhuru of bankrolling 'illegal politics' through rallies like those led by Nairobi Senator Edwin Sifuna and ODM rebels, vowing government action to lock his money if it continues. The threat emerged amid ODM fractures following Raila Odinga's exit and rising 2027 election tensions, with pro-Ruto figures claiming Uhuru aims to block party support for Ruto's re-election. Online backlash ridiculed Kibet for lacking evidence and overstepping, highlighting perceived hypocrisy in political cash handouts while no confirmation of Uhuru's involvement has appeared. Key TakeawayAt a rally in Western Kenya, Farouk Kibet stared down the crowd and delivered a pointed warning to former President Uhuru Kenyatta: stop funding opposition events, or face frozen finances.

Kenyan Podcaster Claims Past Governor Demanded F1 Bribe at KasaraniFebruary 16, 2026 3:13 PM Full SummaryOn 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 TakeawayA 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. Context & EntitiesTopics

Archbishop Duffy Appointed Bishop of Killala in Irish Dioceses UnionFebruary 23, 2026 5:37 PM Full SummaryPope Leo XIV named 67-year-old Archbishop Duffy of Tuam as Bishop of Killala, allowing him to lead both neighboring Irish dioceses under the 'in persona episcopi' arrangement while keeping them administratively distinct. A native of County Cavan with a background in teaching, school leadership, and prior bishop roles, Duffy steps into the position after Bishop John Fleming's retirement in April 2024. He described the move as 'mission-driven renewal' and 'strategic adaptation' to pastoral challenges like priest shortages, quoting Jeremiah's hopeful words and earning warm support from fellow bishops. This union joins recent restructurings in Ireland's west, fostering shared governance for about 92,000 Catholics. Key TakeawayAfter nearly two years guiding Killala as administrator, Archbishop Francis Duffy heard his permanent appointment announced following Mass at Saint Muredach’s Cathedral in Ballina.
