The Probe and The Promise
When General Francis Ogolla perished in a chopper crash with nine others on 18th april, 2024, President William Ruto appointed the then Army Commander, Major-General John Omenda, to lead investigations and lay the findings bare in the shortest time possible.
However, there has been the question: will the president’s pronouncement remain just that – a pronouncement? A situation that will see the country never getting to know the how and why around general ogolla and his colleagues' deaths? Why? Well, aside from military sensitivities, some of the dynamics around the trip may implicate members and operations of the defence forces, and so they may not publicly release a report that implicates them, partly informing calls for a probe that is not undertaken by the KDF alone. However, the Kenya Defence Forces has told NTV that the investigation is in progress, but is unlikely to end soon, adding that the report will be made public once the investigation is complete. On this week’s inside out, our senior investigations reporter Duncan Khaemba probes dynamics around the probe into the fatal military helicopter crash.

Ndindi Nyoro: From National Assembly Budget and Appropriations Committee chair to government critic
The year 2025 has been one of mixed fortunes for Kiharu Member of Parliament Ndindi Nyoro, a man who started the year chairing the powerful Budget & Appropriations Committee of the National Assembly, would fall out of favour with president William Ruto's regime, and consequently not only lost his chairmanship of the committee, but was also removed as a member altogether.
Ndindi, now turned to sharply criticizing President William Ruto's economic policies, often getting into a heated war with staunch defenders of the Kenya Kwanza government.
Politically he has also not out-rightly associated with either of the two political formations currently, be it those who are shouting one term and those shouting two term.
The two term Kiharu lawmaker sat down with our senior reporter Ibrahim Karanja in a tell it all interview, where he spoke in detail about his position on the impeachment of Rigathi Gachagua amongst other things.
