Wanja Nyarari Applauds PEU Commandant Noah Maiyo for Exceptional Leadership During France Summit

-




As Kenya concluded hosting the France Summit, Wanja Nyarari has praised Presidential Escort Unit (PEU) Commandant AIG Noah Maiyo and the entire unit for their professionalism, discipline, and dedication in ensuring the success of the high-profile international event.

In her remarks, Wanja said many people often focus on the visible diplomatic moments such as handshakes, meetings, and historic engagements, but rarely appreciate the immense responsibility carried by the officers tasked with coordinating the President’s security movements and protecting visiting Heads of State.

She noted that the Presidential Escort Unit serves as a critical link between the Presidency and all security agencies involved in state functions, requiring constant vigilance, wisdom, and precision. According to her, the role goes beyond physical presence and demands sound judgment and seamless coordination at every stage.

“The President depends on this level of leadership to ensure that every visiting Head of State and distinguished guest is safe, comfortable, and protected at every moment,” Wanja stated.

She further explained that a strong Presidential Escort team must continuously assess security situations, ensure smooth movement coordination, and maintain professionalism even during spontaneous public interactions involving the Head of State.

Wanja highlighted that moments where a President pauses to greet or acknowledge citizens require quick thinking and maturity from the escort team to balance both dignity and security without causing disruption.

Describing the unit’s work as “quiet excellence,” she said the professionalism displayed by Commandant Noah Maiyo and his officers continues to elevate Kenya’s reputation on the global stage.

She concluded by calling on Team GS and Kenyans at large to appreciate and celebrate the PEU team for serving the nation with honour, professionalism, and distinction during the France Summit.

By irene Mwende  NAIROBI, KENYA – Ann Kioko, the Campaign Director for CitizenGO Africa, has delivered a powerful petition on behalf of 12,620 concerned Kenyan citizens, urging President William Ruto to immediately clarify and retract Kenya’s recent vote at the United Nations in favor of extending the controversial mandate on Sexual Orientation and Gender Identity (SOGI). In a strongly worded statement, Kioko expressed deep urgency and grave concern over Kenya’s July 5, 2025 vote endorsing the renewal of the so-called UN Independent Expert on SOGI. According to Kioko, this decision was made without any public consultation or national debate and starkly contradicts the spirit of Kenya’s Constitution, which recognizes the family as the natural and fundamental unit of society. “The SOGI mandate is far from a neutral human rights mechanism,” Kioko said. “It has evolved into a politicized tool used to pressure sovereign nations to accept ideologies that threaten ...

By Irene  At a time when the legal profession faces growing pressure from unethical practices and unqualified actors, Law Society of Kenya (LSK) Council Member candidate Kevin Kachapin has issued a strong call to defend the integrity of advocacy. Speaking on the need to safeguard the profession, Kachapin warned that the rise of quacks and masqueraders posing as advocates poses a serious threat to both the public and genuine practitioners. He noted that such practices erode trust in the justice system and expose clients to grave risks, while hardworking advocates see their profession devalued. Equally concerning, Kachapin said, is the culture of unethical undercutting within the profession, where legal services are cheapened at the expense of quality, competence, and fairness. He emphasized that legal practice must be anchored on integrity, professional skill, and fair competition — not shortcuts that undermine standards. “This is not about gatekeeping,” Kachapin said. “...
