Tuesday, February 24, 2026 - Efforts to rid the Coast region of criminal elements have received a significant boost following the arrest of two armed and dangerous suspects and the recovery of a loaded AK-47 rifle. The operation was conducted by a joint team of detectives from the Crime Research and Intelligence Bureau (CRIB) and the Operations Directorate. The suspects, identified as Collins Ochieng alias Voke (22) and Timothy Omondi Mgowe (23), are believed to be involved in a robbery and abduction that targeted a businessman in Kisauni Sub-County on February 17, 2026. According to reports, masked assailants accosted the victim, stole substantial sums of money and valuables, and later abandoned him near the Mombasa Cement area. Following the incident, detectives worked tirelessly on leads that eventually led them to a targeted apartment in the Bamburi Fisheries area. The operation resulted in the arrest of the two suspects and the recovery of an AK-47 rifle, one magazine, four rounds of ammunition, and ten assorted mobile phones. The suspects are currently undergoing processing and will be arraigned in court soon. Security operations across the Coast region continue to intensify, with authorities vowing to restore safety and security for all residents. The Kenyan DAILY POST

Tuesday, February 24, 2026 - Chaos erupted in Nairobi’s Central Business District after heavy rains exposed yet another glaring failure in the city’s drainage system.

Tuesday, February 24, 2026 - Activist Jackson Kuria, popularly known as Cop Shakur, has made explosive allegations against Interior Principal Secretary Raymond Omollo, accusing him of using taxpayers’ money to fund goons to disrupt opposition activities. Taking to his X account, Shakur claimed that the funds used to mobilize the goons are drawn directly from the National Treasury. He further alleged that ODM grassroots mobilizer, Calvince Okoth, alias Gaucho, receives Ksh 150,000 weekly from PS Omollo to coordinate the activities. Shakur also claimed that a GSU officer attached to Kimbo is facing intimidation after refusing to transport cash meant for distribution to the said groups. According to him, police were reportedly sent to ransack the officer’s residence, and there are threats of disciplinary action against him. This is not the first time PS Omollo has faced such claims.
