🚨 MUDAVADI & WETANG’ULA WALK OUT! What Happened the MOMENT SIFUNA Got the Mic? | Lee Makwiny

Why did Prime Cabinet Secretary Musalia Mudavadi and Speaker of the National Assembly Moses Wetang'ula abruptly walk out during the church service for the late Burudi Nabwera as Nairobi Senator Edwin Sifuna took the microphone?

In this video, Lee Makwiny breaks down the shocking political drama, behind-the-scenes tension, and the exact moment Western Kenya political titans collided live on camera. Was this a calculated protest, or is a major political shift brewing ahead of the 2027 elections? Watch as we analyze the full story, Sifuna's fiery reaction, and what this walkout means for the Kenya Kwanza government and Western Kenya politics.

Iwo Jima became one of the most famous battlefields in American history. On February 23rd, 1945, Marines raised the American flag on top of Mount Suribachi, and the photograph of that moment became one of the most famous pictures ever taken. More than eighty years later, almost no one is allowed to set foot on the island. It's a Japanese military base, it goes by a different name, and American civilians can land there just one day a year. So why can't you visit Iwo Jima? And what is still out there today?

In this video, we follow the story of Iwo Jima: from the black sand beaches where nearly 7,000 Americans died and the flag raising on Mount Suribachi, to the day America handed the island back to Japan, the families who were never allowed to go home, the thousands of soldiers who are still missing under the ground, the island that is rising so fast that the ships the Navy sank there in 1945 are coming back out of the sea, and the one day each year when the last veterans come back.

A few hours after our interview with Geoffrey Mosiria went out, Governor Sakaja's office put out a "reshuffle", and Mosiria's docket went to someone else 😳 In the interview he alleged cartels at City Hall, a "Shakahola" office and a Babu Owino bribe. Now he has hit back with a letter: "Thank you my boss for making my sacking official."

In this explainer:
📄 The 21 October circular: who got moved, and why it never names Mosiria
💸 His claim: health budget cut from 1.2 billion to 100 million after he refused direct procurement
📞 The WhatsApp call, being sent to Environment and left "idle in office"
⚖️ The contempt case "planned to kick me out" and his claim that a case to jail him is coming
🧪 His drug test: negative, negative, negative
🕳️ Nairobi's missing money, potholes and engineers with nothing to do
🗳️ Hassan Omar at the IEBC: "even dead people will vote" was a metaphor?
🔥 Ndolo summoned by NCIC over the goons claim
📱 "Ruto is a liar": the 25% smartphone tax and the opposition's Nakuru rally (Karua, Matiang'i, Ndindi)
🚔 A Citizen TV journalist arrested at the fuel protests: IPOA summons the OCPD and five officers

The claims in Mosiria's letter are his own. The county has not responded beyond the reshuffle circular.

Mwijaku: Khaligraph Jones amejenga nyumba kama Ofisi za Benk, huo ni ushamba mwana Hip Hop wa Kenya

President Yoweri Kaguta Museveni has commissioned 280 Uganda People's Defence Forces (UPDF) officer cadets, urging them to remain focused on their military careers and avoid distractions that could derail their service.

President Museveni, who is also the Commander-in-Chief of the UPDF, made the remarks today during the commissioning ceremony for Officer Cadets Intake 09/26 and Bachelor of Defence Studies Intake 05/23/29 at Uganda Military Academy-Kabamba in Mubende District.
The 280 commissioned cadets included 187 professionals who began training in February 2026 and 87 Bachelor of Defence Studies cadets who started their training on September 18, 2023. The latter class initially enrolled 100 cadets, but 14 did not complete the programme. Eleven of those commissioned are female.
Six additional officer cadets received training abroad, including Officer Cadets Ruhamya Kainerugaba and Andrew Bakira, who trained at the Royal Military Academy Sandhurst in the United Kingdom, while four others trained in India.
The ceremony was attended by Chief of Defence Forces (CDF) Gen. Muhoozi Kainerugaba and his wife, Mrs. Charlotte Kainerugaba; Defence and Veteran Affairs Minister Hon. Kiryowa Kiwanuka; Uganda Military Academy-Kabamba Commandant Brig. Gen. Saad Katemba; and other senior military officers.
Lt. Col. John Mugarura commanded the parade.
Outstanding cadets received awards for their performance before the newly commissioned officers took the oaths of allegiance and secrecy.
Economy key to strong National Defence:
Congratulating the graduates, President Museveni described their commissioning as the beginning of a long journey of service in an institution whose effectiveness depends on discipline, commitment and sound leadership.
“First of all, congratulations to the graduates. You have started a long journey in a very honourable organisation, the UPDF. If you do your part and don't get diverted, you will make a good contribution,” he said.
He thanked the cadets’ families, the academy and the UPDF leadership for supporting their training.
President Museveni emphasised that a strong economy is one of the fundamental pillars of an effective national defence system, arguing that the military must work alongside other institutions to protect the country’s productive sectors.
The President also called for a firm response to crime in communities, particularly the theft of livestock distributed to farmers under the Parish Development Model (PDM).
“When you get thieves stealing the goats and cows from the farmers which have been given by the PDM, that's sabotage. It shouldn't be tolerated,” he warned.
Discipline, technology and training:
President Museveni stressed that the relationship between the army and the population remains critical to national security, urging officers to maintain discipline and demonstrate respect for the communities they serve.
“The strategic relationship between the army and the people [is important]. The army must always make sure that it is like fish in the sea,” he said, recalling how public support helped the liberation struggle despite shortages of weapons.
On regional security, President Museveni urged African countries to strengthen strategic coordination and build joint capabilities across land, air, maritime and space domains.
“We need to coordinate with our brother African countries to work together so that we create capacity on land, air, at sea and even space because that's where the war is now,” he said.
He commended the CDF and other commanders for efforts to fight corruption and improve the welfare of soldiers, including better accommodation and pay.
President Museveni said the government would also prioritise modernising military training institutions, adding that the facilities should meet high international standards.
“I have told the CDF and his commanders that we need to prioritise these training infrastructures. They can be made state-of-the-art. It is good to have the best in the world when you are training from here,” he said.
He further urged the newly commissioned officers to safeguard their health, drawing on his own experience of maintaining an active life at the age of 82.
In his remarks, Gen. Kainerugaba said the security situation in Uganda and the wider region was relatively calm, with UPDF peace and stabilisation missions in the Democratic Republic of Congo, South Sudan and Somalia continuing to make progress.
The CDF warned that the security agencies would not tolerate the criminal activities and were coordinating operations to identify, arrest and bring the perpetrators to justice.
“No effort will be spared until the sanctity of the right to life and property is fully restored for all the people in our country,” he said.
Gen. Kainerugaba commended instructors across military training institutions for their dedication and congratulated the new officers on their decision to serve the country.
