Saturday, August 16, 2025 - Independent Electoral and Boundaries Commission (IEBC) chairman, Erastus Ethekon, has officially gazetted Consolata Nabwire as the new nominee replacing Gloria Orwoba in the Senate. Orwoba, who had been nominated by the United Democratic Alliance (UDA), lost her seat after the High Court in Nairobi dismissed her petition challenging her expulsion from the ruling party. Justice Lawrence Mugambi ruled that the matter had already been properly handled by the Political Parties Disputes Tribunal. In a gazette notice issued on Friday, August 15th, Ethekon confirmed Nabwire’s appointment to the Senate, where she will serve for the remainder of the term until the 2027 General Elections. Orwoba’s troubles with UDA began in April when she was spotted at Jomo Kenyatta International Airport in the company of former Interior Cabinet Secretary Fred Matiang’i, who had just returned from the United States. The party accused her of promoting the agenda of rival political formations, a move it termed as indiscipline. She was summoned before a disciplinary committee, which later resolved to expel her. Her initial petition in May temporarily blocked Nabwire’s nomination, but the courts have since cleared the way for her replacement. The Senator’s ouster adds to her legal woes. In July, a Nairobi court fined her KSh 10.5 million for defaming Senate Clerk Jeremiah Nyegenye and ordered her to issue a public apology. Meanwhile, Orwoba has shifted allegiance to the opposition and is expected to contest the Bobasi parliamentary seat in 2027 under Matiang’i’s political camp. The Kenyan DAILY POST

Saturday, August 16, 2025 - US President Donald Trump’s administration has issued a warning to Kenyans travelling to the United States, cautioning them against overstaying beyond the permitted period of stay. The US Government termed overstaying a violation of immigration laws that could jeopardize future visa eligibility. In a statement released by the US Embassy in Nairobi on Saturday, August 16th, officials clarified that holding a US visa does not guarantee how long one may remain in the country. Instead, a visa only permits a traveler to present themselves at an American port of entry - such as an airport or seaport - where Customs and Border Protection (CBP) officers decide the duration of their stay. “A US visa allows you to travel to a US port of entry and request permission to enter. How long you are allowed to stay in the United States is not your visa’s expiration date,” the embassy explained. The CBP officer issues an “Admit Until Date” upon arrival, which can be checked online at i94.cbp.dhs.gov. The embassy noted that the clarification followed numerous questions from Kenyans on the difference between visa validity and authorized stay in the United States. This advisory comes barely two weeks after Washington announced new requirements for visa applicants. Beginning July 25th, all Kenyans applying for US visas must disclose all social media handles they have used in the past five years. The embassy warned that failure to provide accurate information could result in visa denial and ineligibility for future applications. Applicants must also certify that all information provided is true and correct before submitting their applications. The Kenyan DAILY POST
