We are being fed slogans while the country sinks deeper into crisis,\u201d Nyamwamu said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><br>He pointed to the education crisis in Nairobi as a clear example of government failure, noting that some schools have admitted between 850,000 and 900,000 students into Grade 10, yet lack basic facilities such as water and sanitation.<br>Nyamwamu further alleged that Nairobi has \u2018ghost schools\u2019\u2014institutions that exist on paper but are unknown even to county authorities\u2014raising serious concerns about planning, accountability, and misuse of public resources.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><br>\u201cWhen we expose these issues, some government officials label us negative. That is gaslighting Kenyans instead of fixing problems,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><br>He also highlighted the economic hardship facing parents, saying many families can no longer afford basic necessities such as transport fare, school uniforms, or other education-related costs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><br>\u201cParents are struggling. Some cannot even afford fare to take their children to school, yet politicians defending this government live comfortably and dismiss genuine concerns as negativity,\u201d Nyamwamu stated.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><br>Nyamwamu called on the government to stop dismissing public outrage and instead confront the realities facing ordinary Kenyans, warning that continued denial would only deepen public anger and mistrust.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><br>\u201cThe country is hurting. The government must stop gaslighting Kenyans and start taking responsibility,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Mutumishi Wa Watu incoming Nairobi Governor Cyprian Nyamwamu has launched a scathing attack on President William Ruto\u2019s administration, claiming that 64 per cent of the&hellip; <\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[33],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-800","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-the-explainer-time"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/livenation254.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/800","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/livenation254.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/livenation254.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/livenation254.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/livenation254.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=800"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/livenation254.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/800\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":802,"href":"https:\/\/livenation254.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/800\/revisions\/802"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/livenation254.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=800"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/livenation254.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=800"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/livenation254.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=800"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
