The least expected in partnerships is respect. We have been struggling to fit within Azimio but we became the unwanted guests. It is not about positions but the feeling of belonging somewhere where you feel recognized, respected and consulted. The country must move on.
Alhamdullillah. We thank the Almighty Allah for more blessings for our UDM party. We got one more Senator and one more MP nominated bringing our total number in parliament of Kenya to 11 members of parliament. A big boost for our Kenya Kwanza team in both houses.
Alhamdullillah UDM party received more blessings from the Almighty Allah through nominations. After nominations we have 11 MPs (3 senators and 8 MPs) , 62 MCAs and our 2 Governors. Good Beginning for previously little known party UDM. Now we are ranked 5th in strength nationally
Kenyans have spoken and the will of the Almighty God has prevailed in favour of HE William Ruto. I want take this opportunity to congratulate William Ruto and his Deputy for the win. We must respect the verdict of IEBC and move on as Azimio team. Kenya is bigger than all of us.
We thank the Almighty Allah for the success our UDM party 7 NA members, 2 senators, 2 Governors and 40 MCA s across the country. It marks an Excellent beginning for Northern kenya. We must stand up and be counted in National politics as Northerners. Thank you all for the support
A Kikuyu friend of mine in the Senate told me not to worry about the current noise surrounding βone man, one shilling, one voteβ or the perceived obsession with the small growth of Somali businesses. According to him, every election cycle, Kikuyus are given something to focus on
2022 General Election is by far the most transparent and peaceful election I have participated in either as a voter or as a candidate. Both IEBC and the security teams have done a wonderful job under the circumstance compared to past elections. Your thoughts?
Long standing unresolved issues plus gate keepers feeling threatened by the presence of partners which spilled over into elections. You canβt coerce people into loyalty. Engagement was replaced with chest thumping.
Fellow Kenyans, particularly the youth of Generation Z, I want to share my professional journey and the insights Iβve gained. Before venturing into politics, I served as a pilot and Director of Flight Operations for a multinational corporation engaged in humanitarian relief
Situation in Mandera is deteriorating by the day with more build up of foreign forces of Jubaland within Mandera Town and serious buildup of Federal Government of Somalia forces in Beled Hawo. The Government must move with speed to manage the situation to avoid more loss of lives
Congratulate HE Johnson Sakaja for being elected THE GOVERNOR OF NAIROBI CITY County. You stood with us during the Revenue sharing formula Saga as a level headed leader representing fairness and I believe Nairobi has gotten the Right leader. Pongezi bro you deserve that and more
Despite the valid rejection of some aspects of the finance bill and the public outcry, I feel sympathy for President William Ruto, who is facing a difficult situation. If he borrows money, he faces public outrage; if he raises taxes, he encounters backlash. How can Ruto fulfill

@ahmednasirlaw
as the chief guest, we today fundraised for Masjid Jamia and Islamic Cenre in Rhamu, Mandera North. Alhamdulilah, we managed to raise a total of KSHs. 36M. Asante SC and all the participants.
Dear Gen Z,
Recent developments show the Presidentβs unprecedented responsiveness to your demands, including:
1.Rejection of the Finance Bill.
2.Abolishment of Offices of Spouses and removal of funds.
3.Participation in X Space discussions.
4.Dismissal of the Cabinet.
We must Appreciate the positives of this government of President William Ruto. For the first time in 9 years the National Treasury was able to comply with the law by releasing all the monies due to the County Governments by 30th June as required by law. It was also able to
Today I assessed the COVID 19 Isolation and response center at Mandera C R H as well as the readiness of the ICU and HDU facilities at the A & E center. I am happy to note that 14 bed response and isolation center is ready as well as 8 Bed ICU&HDU are also ready for immediate use
Alhamdullillah. Mandera County G has successfully drilled two boreholes in Lulis and Banisa town respectfully. Since Independence Several attempts of drilling Boreholes in Banissa were unsuccessful. This is a big relief for us especially during this ravaging draught season.
Jubaland security forces moving right inside mandera town on Bulla Jamhuria Road, near the central chief camp, by the Huduma Center. This is a major threat to the security of Kenyans in mandera. Our GoK must move with speed to mitigate this situation or Risk more loss of lives.
Today I met the the right Honorable Raila Odinga and Senator Orengo for a consultative meeting on a number of issues including continued partnership in politics, and sought his advise on a number of other issues relating to governance and networking.
Never reply to people when you are angry. Never make a promise when you are happy. Never make any important decision when you are sad. You may regret them later.
While Our security managers have trivialized the worsening security situation in Mandera another telecommunication mast was destroyed last night by suspected Alshabab in Sarman.This is more than200KM away from somalia border. How will you solve a problem whose existence you deny?
Somebody referred local parties as coming from the kraals but the same party has been the reason very senior guys remained holed up in Garissa to counter the local party from the kraals including resorting desperately to interfering with my personal security in desperation.
I am happy to share that today we discharged our last COVID-19 patient of the 18 cases who tested positive in Mandera County. It means we have no active case as at now. While it is too early to celebrate based on national trend, it is a positive progress in the right direction.
President Tayyip Erdogan May The Almighty Allah give you Victory in todayβs Elections. You represent hope for many across the globe. Under Your leadership Turkey has positioned itself as a global pace setter in many Areas besides opening itself up to world. Today I pray for your
Ban Miraa/Muguka!
Miraa/Muguka is destroying lives, turning the youth into zombies, and perpetuating poverty in Northern Kenya. While the government combats illicit alcohol in Mt. Kenya it is encouraging Miraa use in Northern by financing its growth and encouraging consumption,
βRaila has threatened to file a lawsuit against HE Ruto for defamation.β You can not be calling someone a thief consistently by saying he has stolen your votes and when he responds to you as required you then say I will file for defamation? Withstand the pressure like Ruto does.
These recent tragic events during demonstrations against the finance bill highlight a disturbing trend of deflecting responsibility at the highest levels of our government. Deputy President Rigathi Gachaguaβs persistent narrative, blaming Noordin Haji, the Director General of the
I have seen quite a lot of pronouncements by our NEW CSs. A good new CEO needs to spent a little time to understand his/her internal Situation thoroughly, engage critical internal and external stakeholders, talk to critical line managers and draw relevant strategic direction.
Congratulations to Major Dekow and Team for the win in Garissa township by- election. I would like to also thank the people of Garissa for the support they accorded to our candidate Dolal and for the warm welcome they accorded to UDM Team. Pongezi to UDA for the win. π
United Democratic Movement ( UDM) Party and itβs affiliates have Unanimously nominated Hon. Omar Mohamed Maalim the Former MP of Mandera East to vie for the speaker of Mandera County Assembly.
Our youth were genuinely disturbed by issues of national importance. Many expected President Ruto, known for his resilience, to stand firm and refuse to budge. However, having known President Ruto for over 13 years, itβs clear that his decision to withdraw the Finance Bill was a
Now that the petition has been put to rest by The SCoK, as leaders from Northern Kenya we must synergise our efforts towards responding to the ravaging drought situation in our region including lobbying GoK, other partners and stakeholders to support the North in the mitigation
Earlier Azimio claimed β they will do the mother of all rallies on the 20thβ after todays demonstration was foiled, their new statement is that β this is just a rehearsalβ and we say you will never interfere with democratically elected Govt in the name of freedom of picketing.
Like it was said in our African proverb, βIf you see a tortoise sitting on a branch of a tree, you should know that someone put it there.β Whatever that has excited our youth to this level is very serious and deserves full attention from all leaders.
Nothing happens by chance.
Rigathi Gachagwaβs stance has ignited a debate about the possibility of Kenya having 8-9 deputy presidents to advocate for regional interests alongside him. It is very wrong and reckless for a deputy president of a nation to descend to the level of a βregional mouthpiece.β
My sincere Appreciation to the leadership of Kenya Kwanza team and the finance and budget committee for electing me the chairman of senate standing committee for finance and budget. InshaβAllah we will serve the 47 County Governments and delicately balance their expectations.
Alhamdulilah The two COVID 19 patients in our isolation Center have been responding very well and so far they are out of danger. With the help of Allah we very optimistic that they will get well soon before we finally test them again for COVID 19 for final release from the Hosp.
Excuse my long message. But it is worth reading.
The Possible Implications of Recent Demonstrations
Uncontrolled protests can have severe consequences on a country's economy, turning thriving businesses into ghost properties. While it may seem easy to cheer on protestors, it

What is it about some Politicians from Central Kenya forming a habit showing anger and intolerance to other communities in this country particularly from the ASALs and Northern Kenya. It has become a common occurrence by few leaders from Central Kenya attacking the people of
According to NDMA ten counties namely; Isiolo, Mandera, Samburu, Kajiado, Tharaka Nithi, Turkana, Wajir, Laikipia, Tana River and Marsabit are under Alarm drought phase. Counties alone can not cope with disaster of such magnitude GoK must help urgently.

Inna Lillahi Wainna Ileihi Rajiun. Early this morning we have lost our brother IBRAHIM Barrow hassan to COVID-19. IBRAHIM has been the CEC for finance and Economic planning for the last eight and a half years in mandera county. May the Almighty Allah grant patience to the family.
Today in our first session in the senate, we had extensive engagement on Senate Business Committee Approval . Kenya Kwanza versus Azimio. KK won. I would like to thank our Kenya Kwanza team for their spirited support for UDM. & the Senate for your extensive publicity for UDM.
Yesterday we persuaded the people of Garissa to vote for Nassir Jofle our UDM candidate. The reception was superb and crowd was ecstatic. UDM is an equal Opportunity party.
#NassirDolal
. Thank you Garissa people and UDM supporters.
Countries that succeeded in controlling the negative impact of of COVID 19 are those that practiced early lockdowns, as such we have locked down all public movement between sub counties, wards and villages in mandera County. Vehicles transporting essential goods will be allowed.
At the beginning of the current term of the Kenya-Kwanza government, Deputy President Rigathi Gachagua has consistently made statements that undermine others and discuss the concept of government shareholding, distinguishing between those who are shareholders and those who are
@ahmednasirlaw
Colleagues in the Aviation industry what has that to do with your industrial strike? May be you should all resign and join politics so that you can implement your suggestions. I thought you had grievances π€
The new CRA formula has affected kwale, mombasa, malindi, Lamu, isiolo, Marsabit, Tanariver, Garissa, wajir and mandera. What do these counties have in common?. Could it have been by chance or by design?. Puzzling questions. My take is, whatever the reasons, it must be deliberate
To test our state of preparedness . There is need for the National Ministry of health and the presidential task force on COVID 19 to come up with or provide an elaborate checklist against which the counties can check their state of preparedness in dealing with this COVID19.
Fellow Citizens of Mandera County,
I am honored to share with you the results of our relentless efforts to secure more resources for our beloved county. As your Senator, I have always pledged to protect devolution and fight tirelessly for the development of Mandera. Today, I am
Looking at our limited capacity and distance to NBI, I appeal to Government to have KEMRI urgently establish a center for collection of samples and testing of corona virus in MANDERA using existing facilities to enable us quickly identify and manage possible cases of COVID19.
Alhamdullillah our National party UDM with its routes in the North has joined the β League of Extraordinary Gentlemenβ among the National parties in Kenya. Our foot prints are getting Bolder by the Day. We are among the top 6 in funding consideration for parties.
On my own behalf, the leadership of The county and the greater people of Mandera, I would like to thank HE the President and the Deputy President for appointing Hassan Noor Hassan to the position of CAS. May the Almighty Allah bless you and protect your leadership. Thank you.
Today we launched MANDERA Municipality fire Station in MANDERA town. Alhamdullillah, Slowly our journey of resilience and transformation is taking shape.
Thank you CS Kagwe and team. Today we have received some essential supplies including sample collection kits for COVID 19. We appreciate the support from the National Coordinating team in Nairobi. Thank you AMREF, MoH, and Megascope.
This evening we held consultative meeting with HE the President Willam Ruto on various issues. I was accompanied by my brother the Governor of Marsabit HE Mohamud Ali.
In life please try your best to be a good person because it always pays. No good deed, however small, will remain unnoticed or unrewarded by the The Almighty Allah. If you can't be a bridge to connect people, then don't be a wall to separate them. If you can't be a light to

early. This is the only way we can get some control guaranteed. It is my humble appeal to HE the President to move with speed to mitigate the rising cases of COVID 19.
It is very Sad to report that, of the tests carried out on the 30 patients in quarantine, 4 have turned positive for COVID 19 bringing the total number of affected cases of COVID 19 in mandera county to 6. All the 4 are contacts of the first 2 and passengers of the same Bus.
The improvement of our hospitals with 11 ICU beds is already serving the population well. The facility admitted its first patient since installation yesterday. We pray for quick recovery for this patient. We thank God for this capacity to manage ICU patients in Mandera .
It is such great privilege and honor to take the oath of office as the third Senator of Mandera County. I am very grateful to the people of mandera county for giving me the chance to serve them In a different capacity as their senator. I will serve you faithfully and diligently.
Eveny time you are tempted to react to issues in the same old ways, ask yourself wether you want to be a Prisoner of the PAST or a Pioneer of the FUTURE. Just leave things you can do nothing about and concentrate on things that you can do something about.
If candidates are getting that desperate to extent of wanting to assassinate their competitors as in this case of an Attempt on the life of Nassir Jofle the UDM candidate for Garissa Township. The assassination Attempt on Nassir Jofle must be investigated urgently. Worrying trend
Congratulations our former CS Adan mohamed for your new Appointment You deserve that and more. The President will benefit from your extensive wealth of experience in economic and financial matters and your 10 years experience as a CS

Today I had the pleasure of welcoming Hon. Nassir Jofle and some of our Hon. Members from Garissa County Assembly from different political parties lead by the Majority leader Hon. Abubakar Khalif (ML). They visited to discuss issues of common interest for our region. Thank you.
The situation of Covid-19 in the country including massive spread to rural areas demands for extra ordinary measures from the leadership. As we do our best as counties; A total lockdown for a month may be inevitable to help tame the exploding health situation in the country.
Our most important priority as leaders from Northern Kenya and ASALS is to focus our energies and efforts in mitigating the ravaging drought situation within our region that is forecasted to get worse ahead. Currently, political programs should take tertiary priority.
That which Allah openeth unto mankind of mercy none can withhold it ; and that which he withholdeth none can release thereafter. He is the mercy, the wise. So it is HE William Ruto the 5th president of the Republic of Kenya.
I would like to take this opportunity to extend my sincere appreciation to the leadership of UDM for their support during this by- election of Garissa Township. I also wish to thank team Jofle and the people of Garisa for their enthusiastic support to the party. Thank you all.
Hon. Omar Mohamed Maalim former Mandera East MP has been elected unopposed as the speaker of Mandera County Assembly. His deputy Hon. Mohamed Ibrahim Edin too sailed through unopposed.
#UDM
. Probably he is is the only speaker of county Assembly elected unopposed countrywide.
Despite our wishes to reopen, the President is right in pegging the reopening to our capacity to respond to COVID 19. All the 47 counties must have adequate capacity to respond to possible escalation of case numbers. Letβs work on enhancing bed and testing capacities in counties
Thank you Our 5th president for being sensitive and cognisant of the ravaging drought situation in the ASALs. Your acknowledgment alone has renewed the hopes of the people of Northern Kenya. I am sure with the help of the Almighty Allah you will help your people.

Of the 8 patients of COVID19 in Mandera, one has been discharged after having fully recovered as indicated by 2 negative test results. 2 additional patients have registered negative results awaiting another validation test before discharge. The remaining 5 are progressing well.
I would like to thank H.E. the president and the World Bank who initiated this partnership between GoK and the World bank for realisation of the single largest and most important project for the transformation of lives in the Greater North Eastern Region.
While we acknowledge fully the seriousness of the COVID 19 health crises and the desperation the situation presents, we must be Humane about our control measures. What we are seeing on platforms of our security officers treatment of our own population is totally unacceptable. NO.
As we entertain foreign forces in Mandera, Al-Shabaab are having field day in the county. Today five incidences happened at Jabibar within 3 straight hours uninterrupted by our security forces. 4 people have been abducted and their whereabouts unknown. One KEMSA vehicle was burnt

SC the situation is still unstable. Jubaland forces are still holed up within Mandera town . Last night there were gunshots along the border believed to be from Janan forces. Today the public have reported two lorries carrying Janan troops heading to Mandera along B9/A13 Road.
A friend in need is a friend in deed. On this revenue sharing formula, we have known the true friends of ASALs and Muslims in general. This is a gesture we will never forget.
