  • Kenya Deputy President William Ruto 2021

    Kenya Deputy President William Ruto 2021

    Meet the Real William Ruto MPs and other Mt Kenya politicians who insist they do not have a problem with President Uhuru Kenyatta, that their differences with Uhuru is because of Raila Odinga, or because they suspect Uhuru is not willing to support DP William Ruto for presidency in 2022, are either naive, or outright liars. WILLIAM RUTO WITH FAROUK KIBET During the weekend of December 8 - 9, 2019, DP Ruto attended events in at least 5 counties, including: 1. The African Independent Pentecostal Church of Africa (AIPCA), Mukaro Diocese, Giakanja, Nyeri County. 2. Anglican Church of Kenya (ACK) Cathedral of St Peter’s Mbeere, Siakago, Embu County. 3. St. Francis of Assisi Catholic Church, Mukuyuni, Makueni County. 4. Ndagani Catholic Parish, Chuka, Tharaka-Nithi County. 5. Presbyterian Church of East Africa (PCEA), Kipipiri, Nyandarua County. Every politically enlightened Kenyan knows what these events represent. They could be termed prayer-worship, fundraising or whatever. But we know they are also campaign events, and have been going on for almost 2 years now. In fact, I don’t think any other Kenyan has ever spent so much time airborne, on Kenyan airspace, as DP Ruto has (apart from pilots & air hostesses). This is what I believe is going on: A little digression: Once upon a time, I worked for 3 months as a clerk in a government office. One day, I accompanied my boss as he went to buy some equipment in town. That was when I learnt why corruption is so prevalent in Kenya. The business itself encouraged corruption, probably so that one can become a frequent customer.
  • Newspaper Visibility of Members of Parliament in Kenya*

    Newspaper Visibility of Members of Parliament in Kenya*

    Journalism and Mass Communication, ISSN 2160-6579 D July 2012, Vol. 2, No. 7, 717-734 DAVID PUBLISHING Newspaper Visibility of Members of Parliament in Kenya* Kioko Ireri Indiana University, Bloomington, USA This research investigates variables that predicted news coverage of 212 members of parliament (MPs) in Kenya by four national newspapers in 2009. The 10 variables examined are: ordinary MP, cabinet minister, powerful ministry, parliamentary committee chairmanship, seniority, big tribe identity, major party affiliation, presidential ambition, commenting on contentious issues, and criticizing government. Findings indicate that commenting on contentious issues, criticizing government, cabinet minister, ordinary MP, powerful ministry, and seniority significantly predicted visibility of the parliamentarians in newspaper news. However, a multiple regression analysis shows that the strongest predictors are commenting on contentious issues, cabinet minister, criticizing government, and big tribe identity. While commenting on controversial issues was the strongest predictor, major party identification and committee leadership were found not to predict MPs’ visibility. Keywords: Kenya, members of parliament (MPs), newspapers, newspaper visibility, politicians, visibility, visibility predictor Introduction Today, the mass media have become important platforms for the interaction of elected representatives and constituents. Through the mass media, citizens learn what their leaders are doing for them and the nation. Similarly, politicians use the media to make their agendas known to people. It is, thus, rare to come across elected leaders ignorant about the importance of registering their views, thoughts, or activities in the news media. In Kenya, members of parliament have not hesitated to exploit the power of the mass media to its fullest in their re-election bids and in other agendas beneficial to them.

    Sanctions As a Tool for Asset Recovery: Kenya

    SANCTIONS AS A TOOL FOR ASSET RECOVERY: KENYA CIFAR RESEARCH PAPER CIFAR.EU KEY MESSAGES • Kenya has been relatively successful in recent years in concluding modest asset recovery agreements and has shifted its strategy from purely pursuing corruption prosecutions and convictions to also tracing and locating the proceeds of corruption. • The UK, the EU and the US have sanctioned several Kenyan nationals and residents of Kenya on the grounds of support for terrorism and corrupt conduct. • Sanctions imposed by other countries have though been portrayed within Kenya as politically motivated and designed to preserve geopolitical or business advantage. • The use of Magnitsky-style, ‘smart’ sanctions may present some advantages and opportunities in Kenya, especially in tackling past cases. • Care needs to be taken when imposing these international sanctions that they address primarily cases where national progress is stalled. Extensive communication with a wide range of Kenyan stakeholders during the process is recommended. Paper prepared by Mr. Vaclav Prusa for the Civil Forum for Asset Recovery e.V. (CiFAR).

    Transparency in Kenya's Upstream Oil and Gas Sector

    Beating the Resource Curse: Transparency in Kenya’s Upstream Oil and Gas Sector by Sally Lesley Brunton Thesis presented in fulfilment of the requirements for the degree Master of Political Science in the Faculty of Arts and Social Sciences at Stellenbosch University Supervisor: Professor Ian Taylor March 2018 Stellenbosch University https://scholar.sun.ac.za Declaration By submitting this thesis electronically, I declare that the entirety of the work contained therein is my own, original work, that I am the sole author thereof (save to the extent explicitly otherwise stated), that reproduction and publication thereof by Stellenbosch University will not infringe any third party rights and that I have not previously in its entirety or in part submitted it for obtaining any qualification. Date: March 2018 Copyright © 2018 Stellenbosch University. All rights reserved. i Stellenbosch University https://scholar.sun.ac.za Abstract In 2012 Tullow Oil plc discovered commercial quantities of crude oil onshore Kenya. Additional commercial discoveries have subsequently been made and estimates suggest that Kenya’s oil reserves are substantial. Steps towards the development and production of these reserves are progressing and Kenya is thus preparing to become another of sub-Saharan Africa’s oil-exporting states. Nevertheless, experience has shown that the majority of these resource-rich states have succumbed to symptoms of the ‘resource curse’: economic and human development and growth has been hindered rather than helped and many of these states find themselves struggling to escape from the clutches of rent-seeking, bribery and corruption. In an attempt to determine how best Kenya might avoid the negative impacts of the curse this study examines various strands of resource curse theory.

    The Arror and Kimwarer Dams Project

    The Real Story Behind the Dams Scam By Alessandro Da Rold and Lorenzo Bagnoli Since the 1970s, Kenya has been considered by convicted Italian criminals as a safe haven – a place to hide from justice. A recent tide has, however, occurred and now some of these criminals have been extradited after spending years enjoying the “good vibes” of the Kenyan sea shores, especially in their stronghold Malindi. It seems to be the end of an era marked by impunity as Kenyan authorities have started pursuing alleged felonies committed by Italians living in Kenya. The authorities are not just going after individuals, but companies as well. On the 29th of July this year, the Milimani Chief Magistrate’s court in Nairobi allowed Kenya’s Director of Public Prosecutions (DPP), Noordin Haji, to issue an arrest warrant for the Italian citizen Paolo Porcelli, the CEO of CMC (Cooperativa Muratori e Cementisti) from Ravenna. Porcelli is charged with abuse of office, bid-rigging and misuse of public funds and could face jail time if he returns to Kenya. With him on the list of the indicted there is also the Italian joint venture between the Italian companies Itinera (Gavio Group) and CMC. Porcelli declined to appear in court twice. “Porcelli is a fugitive. Despite being given the opportunity, he hasn’t presented himself in court for a second time,” DPP Special Prosecutor Taib Ali Taib told the court. “The Italians think they can break the law and get away with it contemptuously. They believe nothing will come out of it. Don’t allow it, your honour”.
