Good morning,
It seems the biting cold is not going away anytime soon. It’s also that time of the month when you probably can’t afford lunch. But one of our strengths as Kenyans is that we always find a way to overcome.
Here are the top stories making headlines this morning.
Government to Scrap Permanent Jobs
The shift to three-year contracts in the 66,000-strong public service is intended to gradually replace the aging workforce as well as to address performance concerns.
Moses Kuria For President?
Gatundu South Member of Parliament Moses Kuria has insisted that his presidential ambitions for the 2022 general elections remain alive.
Speaking on Tuesday, the lawmaker who has repeatedly declared his bid to succeed President Uhuru Kenyatta noted that he will stick to his declaration and ultimately vie for the seat.
Uhuru and Raila to Counter Ruto’s Countrywide Tours
After Sunday’s public outburst at Kasarani Stadium, President Uhuru Kenyatta is set to make headlines again when he embarks on a nationwide tour with his brother Raila Odinga. Insiders believe the tours are meant to counter Deputy President William Ruto’s Tanga Tanga trips.
UhuRaila will be preaching development and national cohesion. They will also market their handshake in which they buried the hatchet after the disputed presidential election.

Since the famous handshake in March 2018, Ruto has been a cornered man. Jubilee has transformed from a Uhuruto to Uhuru vs Ruto. Will the latest move end the Jubilee Party?
