WIN!
PRESS STATEMENT BY SENATOR OKIYA OMTATAH ON THE PUBLIC DEBT CASE RULING
Fellow Kenyans,
Today, the High Court delivered an important ruling in our public debt case.
The Court upheld the @IMFNews claim of diplomatic immunity and struck it out of this petition. While we respect the Court’s decision, accountability for Kenya’s debt burden cannot end there.
We are preparing a separate legal challenge to the Bretton Woods Agreements Act, 1963, against the Constitution of Kenya 2010 to ensure all actors involved in Kenya’s debt processes are subjected to proper scrutiny.
Most importantly, the Court rejected attempts by the Attorney General and other respondents to have this case dismissed. The judges ruled that our petition will proceed to a full hearing on its merits.
The Court also dismissed applications by the former Auditor General, former Controller of Budget, the current Auditor General, and the current Controller of Budget seeking to shield themselves from these proceedings.
This is a significant victory for transparency, accountability, and the Kenyan people.
We will amend our petition as directed by the Court and return on 22nd July 2026. Our mission remains unchanged: to establish how Kenya accumulated trillions in public debt, how the funds were utilized , whether the public benefited and whether the law was followed at every stage.
This case is about protecting the future of our nation and the interests of every Kenyan taxpayer.
We remain focused, determined, and committed to seeing it through.
God Bless Kenya.

Kenyans are being asked to pay more taxes through the Finance Bill 2026, yet the 2026/27 Budget hides KSh 101.37 billion under a vague item called “Other Operating Expenses.” No programme. No purpose. No accountability.
Before taxing Kenyans another shilling, Parliament must clean up the budget. We cannot finance opacity with taxpayers’ sweat.

Today in the @Senate_KE, I will substantiate how public money is being hidden and stolen in plain sight through budget lines labelled “Other Operating Expenses.” OVER 90 BILLION!
If salaries, utilities, travel, maintenance, fuel, training, procurable items, and other expenditures already have specific vote heads, what exactly is hidden under this vague and ever-expanding category?
Even more troubling, the Constitution requires parliamentary approval for all public borrowing. Yet billions are spent under opaque budget lines that escape meaningful scrutiny.
Kenyans deserve transparency, not blank cheques for wastage, mismanagement, and theft. Every shilling collected from taxpayers must be traceable, justified, and accounted for.
The era of hiding public funds behind vague budget descriptions must come to an end. STAY TUNED
Ebola. How would you keep oil prices low when both straits get shut? Simple. Manufacture a global pandemic propaganda and cause lockdowns to kill petroleum demand.

To those dismissing odious debt as theory, history says otherwise.
Mozambique challenged hidden loans in court. Ecuador audited and repudiated illegitimate debt. Iraq secured massive debt cancellation after Saddam. Cuba rejected colonial debt imposed without consent. South Africa resisted apartheid-era obligations tied to oppression.
Odious debt is not fiction. It is a principle backed by precedent, law, and the sovereign right of people not to finance corruption, repression, and theft.
Kenyans cannot be forced to repay debts they neither approved nor benefited from.

Want to see how public funds vanish? Dig into the Treasury’s “Statement of Actual Revenue & Net Expenditure Issues.” The rot is written in black and white. #ReKe #DrainTheSwampNow

The @IMFNews cannot run away from Sh13 trillion allegedly borrowed by Kenya, and which is at the heart of a court case questioning how the money was spent.
IMMUNITY granted to the global lender DOES NOT extend to an ILLEGALITY or a crime committed ON Kenyan soil. #DeniBandia #OdiousDebt #ReKe
