Good Morning ?
It’s Monday again and the newsmakers are up early. This is likely to be the most interesting week we’ve had so far. For starters, when Moses Kuria becomes the moral compass, you know it is not business as usual.

On another note, Civil servants have always been envied for the security their jobs offer, if nothing else. But if your greatest dream was to become a civil servant, you might have to put that dream on hold. At least for now. We’ll tell you why.
And finally, a storm is brewing within the Police Department. Fresh details reveal that senior officials have been slashing allowances meant for junior police officers, amounting to millions of shillings. Is the PD going to survive?
