Govt Steps Up Crackdown on Illegal LPG as Ruto Highlights Digitisation Gains - August 2026
The Kenyan government is intensifying its crackdown on illegal Liquefied Petroleum Gas operations to address public safety concerns stemming from unregulated gas cylinders, following past incidents of fires. President William Ruto announced that digitisation of government services and payments has significantly curbed corruption by eliminating cash transactions and enhancing accountability. Separately, Busia Senator Okiyah Omtatah has formally requested the Kenya National Examinations Council to provide detailed information regarding the procurement process for printing the 2026 national examination materials. These three stories reflect different dimensions of government action in enforcement and transparency.
