President William Ruto announced the government is reviewing a waiver of the national identification card replacement fee, ensuring no one is denied the opportunity to register as a voter, especially with a free replacement window extended until after the 2027 elections.

• The government is establishing two key funds: the Infrastructure Fund and the Sovereign Wealth Fund, to transform the country and secure its future.
• The Infrastructure Fund aims to finance agricultural transformation, industrialisation, and manufacturing, with a goal to increase power generation from 2,300 megawatts to a minimum of 10,000MW.
• President Ruto issued a stern warning to health facilities charging for outpatient services, stating the government has disbursed KSh3.7 billion to pay for health insurance for 2.5 million vulnerable Kenyans.

Former Interior Cabinet Secretary Dr. Fred Matiang’i has dismissed claims of a rift within the United Opposition, despite his absence from recent political meetings. He emphasized that building unity takes time and patience, while also revealing his intention to vie for the presidency in 2027 on a Jubilee Party ticket.

• Matiang’i missed a recent meeting in Kajiado attended by Rigathi Gachagua, Kalonzo Musyoka, and others, as he met with youth and opinion leaders in Nakuru County.
• He stated that aligning leaders' visions and perspectives is a "weighty issue" but expressed confidence in their eventual unity.
• The former CS is actively working to revitalize the Jubilee Party, encouraging mass registration of members and urging youth to register as voters for 2027.
• Matiang’i criticized the delay in issuing national Identity Cards, fearing it will disenfranchise first-time voters.
