COMMITMENT, DISCIPLINE, MOTIVATION AND TEAMWORK is why Ikombe Day and Boarding Primary School has recorded exemplary results in the national examinations for the past three years. The institution located in the remote Ikombe village in Yatta Constituency emerged the top school countywide with a mean score of 418.57 marks in this year's Kenya Certificate of Primary Education examinations.

MACHAKOS COUNTY speaker Florence Mwangangi trashed Alfred Mutua's intention to retain his County Executive Committee (CEC) members. Mwangangi asked the governor to swiftly nominate and present to the assembly ten names of county ministers for approval as required by the law. She said the governor's failure to constitute a legitimate board of county executive committee members has hampered development in Machakos. The Machakos Assembly has been at the forefront in pushing for meaningful development in the county. It has reached out to the executive for mutual corporation between the two institutions, Mwangangi said. She spoke during a media breakfast meeting at a hotel in Machakos town May 2018.

Several Machakos MCAs have condemned Governor Alfred Mutua for allegedly attacking Deputy President William Ruto. Led by Kangundo Central MCA Moses Musyoka, they said Mutua should stop dragging Ruto into county politics. “We condemn in the strongest terms possible the recent unwarranted and misdirected attacks by Mutua against MCAs and Ruto, which the "former" Governor has been orchestrating directly, by innuendos or through proxies," Musyoka said in a statement issued at the assembly’s premises in Machakos town on Monday. "The former Governor has made wild allegations that MCAs have received what he calls blood money from the Deputy President purporting to frustrate his 2022 bid for the presidency." Musyoka said those are "totally unfounded allegations which should be treated and dismissed with the contempt they deserve". He said the allegations were aimed at diverting attention from Mutua's "gross failures and neglect" in the manageme...

"Mercy Keino died at the hands of her sponsor former Kiambu Governor William Kabogo. Caroline Ngumbu died together with her sponsor Chris Msando who was murdered by Jubilee associates to enable them rig elections. Now Sharon Otieno has been murdered by Migori Governor Okoth Obado. She was 7 months pregnant. Yaani this jaluo is an animal kabisa. And these are the only cases we know. Ladies, stop having illicit affairs with Sponsors. Just stop! None of these killers will ever be brought to book. Stop creating narratives. Achaneni na sponsors kabisa! It's not worth it. Infact the money those old assholes give you as hand-outs, is not life-changing. It's money for just hair and rent. These old men are very possessive and stupid. They are not a good example for us." ~Cyprian Nyakundi

WHY MACHAKOS Universal Health Coverage - a program of the National Government funded by WorldBank might terribly fail before its inception. 1. In a PDF document circulated on MCcP colours elaborating on M-UHC, on point 6, Alfred Mutua declares that he will also start a Mutua Care Health program that will run concurrently with Universal Health Coverage program that is funded by the World bank. 2. The PDF document does not inform how the County Government of Machakos is prepared to support the program. I.e. ~What is the budget allocation if any? ~Any plans to absorb new Doctors and health workers to ensure efficient service delivery to attend to the most likely increased number of patients? ~ Any partnerships with MEDS to improve on pharmaceutical supplies. NB; the County Government of Machakos is listed as one of the Counties that owe KEMSA Millions of Kenyan Shillings for failure to pay for drugs delivered. 3. The County Gove...
