Former Deputy President Rigathi Gachagua has once again revealed his plans for the larger Mount Kenya region as far as politics are concerned. He says they have the numbers.

Nairobi Governor Johnson Sakaja is pushing for a cleaner capital; he has directed that all buildings within the city's CBD be repainted within 90 days.

Sakaja has also criticised a recent directive from Controller of Budget (CoB) Margaret Nyakang’o to the effect that county governments are not required to use their allocations to finance bursaries.

Sakaja says the move threatens to halt county government bursary programmes warning that the move could disrupt the education of thousands of vulnerable learners.
