“We need a police station now” Residents Appeal to Sunkuiya and Kanja

adminelveza1 year ago11 months ago02 mins

Lack of a police station in the vast Kajiado West has made it difficult for the police to patrol the vast sub county well according to Kibiko residents. Kajiado West sub county was divided into two administrative units in 2023, giving birth to Elang’ata Wuas Sub County. The first Deputy County Commissioner of Elang’ata Wuas Sub-County, Fred Masingila was installed by the then Interior CS and now Deputy President Kithure Kindiki on September 12, 2023. The establishment of Elang’ata Wuas Sub county left Kajiado West without a police station after Magadi Police Station, which was the only police station in Kajiado West was swallowed by Elang’ata Wuas sub-county. Kibiko residents have now appealed to Kajiado West MP George Sunkuiya and the Interim General of Police Douglas Kanja to do everything they can to elevate Kibiko police post to a police station. “Police station comes with vehicles, more police officers and other resources. It’s unacceptable to have a sub county without a police station in 2025. With the completion of the Ngong to Suswa road, it makes sense to have a well equiped and manned police station which includes traffic officers in Kibiko.” A resident said. Most of the crime investigations that occur in Kajiado West are investigated by either Ngong or Kiserian police stations, which are both within n Kajiado North sub county. Crime investigations and other police operations occuring within Kajiado West sub county should be conducted by officers based within the area of jurisdiction for accountability purposes.

These experiences deepened my understanding of the needs of the community and the importance of service. I also believe it is time for the youth to step up into leadership. Often, young people are judged harshly, with perceptions that we are careless or disconnected. But we have the energy, creativity, and fresh perspective to drive meaningful change. Taking up this role is my way of showing that youth can lead responsibly and make a lasting impact” He said He further said “I am also proud to be Likimani the 5th—continuing a legacy of service, as the 1st Likimani, Paul Likimani, was actually the first Chairman of Kerarapon School and one of the founders too. For me, carrying this name is both a responsibility and a privilege, and I’m committed to uplifting it further by serving my community with integrity. Being elected as the Chairman of Kerarapon Primary School is more than just a role for me. It is an opportunity to give back, to inspire the youth, and to ensure our children learn in an environment that prepares them for a brighter future.” Should more Genzs take leadership roles in communities?

The Return of the Former Kajiado North Member of Parliament

adminelveza1 year ago11 months ago02 mins

The return of the former Kajiado North member of parliament Joseph Manje in the Kajiado North parliamentary race in 2027 may yield surprising results, according to political commentators. The former Kajiado North MP who is also the current Jubilee deputy party leader, has not declared which political seat he will be vying for but his close allies have revealed to Elveza Media that he will definitely be on the ballot. In 2022, Manje was the running mate to Dr. David Nkedianye who was vying for the Kajiado county governor’s position. The duo lost to Governor Joseph Ole Lenku and Martin Moshisho. Political commentator Josephat Kiniiya has predicted the return of Manje to Kajiado North politics may result in either George Yogo or Shadrack Wambui clinching the coveted Kajiado North parliamentary seat. “Manje’s supporters voted for Ngogoyo in the 2022 elections. If Manje decides to vie for the parliamentary seat in 2027, they will vote for him which will in turn significantly reduce Ngogoyo’s votes. Yogo has his ODM support base. Shadrack Wambui appeals to the Genz voters, professionals and most likely the land owners who have been following and supporting his petitions in court. Candidates like Kibathi and Captain Gichinga managed to garner a significant number of votes in 2022, but their silence has left a gap which is currently being exploited by Shadrack Wambui. If Manje decides to endorse any of the above candidates and go for a higher political seat, Ngogoyo will be in trouble. We may get a surprise winner in 2027 but Ngogoyo on the other hand is still very strong and has the advantage of incumbency. You cannot rule him out,” said Kiniiya. The political commentator also predicts that if Fred Matiang’i accepts to be the Jubilee’s party flag bearer in 2027, the Jubilee’s party candidate for the Kajiado North parliamentary seat will also benefit from the Abagusii votes.

adminelveza1 year ago1 year ago01 mins

A woman who was arrested after allegedly spiking a couple’s drinks in a popular bar along Ngong to Matasia road has been remanded in prison after failing to secure a Ksh.150000 bond. The woman is alleged to have been travelling all the way from Donholm, Eastlands, Nairobi county to specifically target men in bars. Married men are said to be good targets for stupefying crimes because they will rarely want such information to reach their partners. The woman is said to have been operating alone after falling out with her partner in crime. According to section 230 of The Penal Code, any person who, with intent to commit or to facilitate the commission of a felony or misdemeanour, or to facilitate the flight of an offender after the commission or attempted commission of a felony or misdemeanour, administers or attempts to administer any stupefying or overpowering drug or thing to any person, is guilty of a felony and is liable to imprisonment for life. Bar patrons have been urged to monitor their drinks keenly and ensure the bottle is empty before leaving the table at any moment.

New disposable period pants promise peace, comfort and convenience for women during menstruation

adminelveza1 year ago02 mins

By Amy Moyi In a major leap towards improving menstrual health and hygiene, Kenyan entrepreneurs Grace Amogola and Dr. Mary Odhiambo are introducing an innovative product designed to make periods more manageable, comfortable, and discreet for women and girls. The new product, “Period Pants, Free Time”, combines the practicality of underwear with the absorbency and protection of sanitary towels, offering a modern solution to period care. Unlike conventional sanitary pads or tampons, the period pants are designed to be worn like regular underwear, with the added advantage of in-built absorbency subsequently addressing common concerns around menstrual health. “We wanted to introduce into the market a menstrual product reliable enough for day use yet protective enough for night and long distance travel. With period pants there is no fear of staining at all,” Dr. Odhiambo said. Each pant features an elastic waist that allows for a snug yet comfortable fit for women up to large sizes. In addition, each period pant is singly packed, making it discreet and hygienic to carry in a handbag, school bag, or pocket. By bringing reliability and convenience to menstrual care, Amogola and Dr. Odhiambo hope to empower women and girls to live their lives with freedom. “Periods should not be a source of stress or discomfort. Many women face difficulties accessing proper menstrual products. Our aim is to create a product that is not only comfortable and reliable but also packaged in a way that promotes ease of handling and hygiene,” explained Amogola. A single packet contains five individually wrapped pieces, retailing at 500 Kenya shillings only. The period pants are designed to be worn for hours without causing friction or moving out of place. This makes them ideal for school-going girls, working women, or anyone with an active lifestyle. Through their collaborative efforts, Amogola and Dr. Odhiambo have designed and produced a menstrual product that has been tested and truly lives up to its name—free time during menstruation. The disposable period pants, which are now available in the market, have been hailed as a step forward in breaking taboos around menstruation and empowering women with choices that align with their lifestyles. The product can now be purchased online and has a 1-3 day delivery service for buyers across Kenya. For purchase inquiries, interested customers can reach out via 0720 962 433 or 0718 181 924.
