In a video shared on TikTok, the grieving woman claimed that her mother died due to medical negligence and alleged that even after her death, the hospital staff continued to frustrate the family by declining to release the body.

She also expressed excitement over her own swearing‑in as Deputy Organising Secretary, noting that ODM had “firmly stepped into a new chapter” under Oburu’s leadership, alongside deputies Governor Abdulswammad Shariff Nassir, Governor Paul Simba Arati and Senator Godfrey Osotsi. “We have shed the ‘orphan’ tag that followed the passing of our founding Party Leader, Rt. Hon. Raila Amolo Odinga.” “Today, we stand united, organised, and ready for the future,” she added.

Friday, November 14, 2025 - The late former Prime Minister Raila Odinga’s trusted barber of 15 years, Julius Kamau Kimani, has opened up on their last meeting before the former ODM leader died on October 15th. During an interview by NTV Kenya’s Ashley Atieno, Kimani, 47, shared the untold story of his professional friendship with Odinga. Their bond began in 2008 when Kimani joined the shop, and it lasted until Odinga’s final haircut on August 1st, 2025. According to Kimani, Raila, affectionately known as “Baba,” consistently requested the same style, a plain number two cut. The trust between the two was evident, with Kimani recalling moments when Odinga would fall asleep mid‑trim. For Kimani, Odinga was more than a customer; he was “a teacher” and “a mirror of humility.” Despite the simplicity of his visits, Odinga’s presence transformed the shop. Security detail inside and whispers outside signaled his arrival, often boosting business. Yet, amid the bustle, Odinga once posed a rare question to Kimani: “What do you want most in life?” On their final meeting, Kimani offered his answer. “Because I have been trimming your hair, I’d also want to serve the President,” he told Odinga. Baba responded: “Even the president, itawezekana.” After the haircut, Odinga paid for everyone present before leaving. That was their last meeting and following Baba’s passing, Kimani says things have never been the same. He says sales have dropped, and the leather chair Odinga once occupied now feels profoundly heavy. The Kenyan DAILY POST

Friday, November 14, 2025 - President William Ruto has left Ukambani residents and Kenyans speculating about his political intentions after declining to clarify whether he will work with Wiper leader, Kalonzo Musyoka.Speaking exclusively to Ukambani‑based media houses on Thursday, November 13th, 2025, at the Kitui State Lodge, Ruto dismissed claims that he was courting Kalonzo ahead of the 2027 General Elections.“As to matters regarding the relationship between political parties, those are discussions that are just politics.”“I am not here to discuss matters of politics,” he said.The Head of State stressed that his focus remains on development projects in the region, not political maneuvering.“I am here to discuss the development of the great people of Ukambani, and I will limit myself to that.”“Matters of politics we will discuss when the right time comes, and everyone knows how they will handle their political issues,” Ruto added.He further highlighted his commitment to completing projects initiated under former President Uhuru Kenyatta.“The former President recently said that it took him about two and a half years to complete most of the projects started by his predecessor, and I have also done just like him.”Earlier, during a Kitui rally on July 18th, Energy Cabinet Secretary Opiyo Wandayi expressed optimism that Kalonzo will eventually join Ruto’s camp.“I respect Kalonzo Musyoka; he is my friend. I am certain he will soon work with Raila and Ruto to push Kenya forward,” Wandayi said.Kalonzo, however, rejected the overture, declaring, “I will never join this rogue and criminal regime,” and ruled out dialogue with the current administration.

Friday, November 14, 2025 - Uganda’s President Yoweri Museveni has blamed Kenya’s frequent change of leadership for his decades‑long struggle to secure access to the Indian Ocean.Speaking during a radio interview at Mbale State Lodge on November 8th, Museveni said negotiations have dragged on for 30 years without resolution.“I have been negotiating access to the Indian Ocean for 30 years, and every time I finish with one Kenyan president, a new one comes, and we start again from zero.”“Why can’t the agreement be made permanent if they know they will keep changing presidents?”“I am tired of negotiating,” Museveni lamented.The Ugandan leader argued that his country is entitled to ocean access for economic and strategic purposes, describing it as “madness” for coastal nations to deny such rights.“How do I export my products? That ocean belongs to me; I am entitled to it.”“In the future, we are going to have wars,” he warned, likening Uganda’s situation to tenants in an apartment block forced to share common facilities.Reacting to the remarks, Kenya’s Foreign Affairs Principal Secretary Korir Sing’Oei avoided direct confrontation but expressed confidence in Museveni’s grasp of regional sovereignty.“I will not comment much on what President Museveni said with respect to our oceans.”“But I believe very much that he does have a fairly great understanding of our territory and the nature of our rights,” Sing’Oei stated.
