Earlier today, NTV (NATION MEDIA GROUP) had reported on Twitter and Facebook that politician and businessman Njenga Karume had died.
NTV have since been forced to retract the story saying “We have been reliably informed that this position is incorrect. The correct position is that he is bedridden and critically ill. We would like to apologise to Mr. Karume, his family, friends, associates and our audience for the incorrect information.”
This was after the politicians daughter, one Lucy Karume was reported to have been furious about these misleading reports asserting that his father is bed ridden and had been visited by the president and other high ranking politicians. Lucy went to say: “Someone has crossed the line, we need people to stop this rumour. My father is well, the President visited him yesterday”.
However, in a later update NTV said Karume was critically ill but his family refuted these reports saying he is well and recovering from illness.

The capture of Badhadhe and Hosingo towns in Somalia early this week is a major milestone in the Operation Linda Nchi. The Kenya Defence Forces Information Officer Colonel Cyrus Oguna says the Al Shabaab militia has been using the two towns to transport firearms and Improvised Explosive devices hence the seizure is significant in cutting off the rag tag militia’s access to weapons. “We expect to completely weaken Al-shabaab fighters and capture more of their strongholds.

FORMER head of civil service Francis Muthaura appeal against the ICC decision that indicted him hit a snag when he failed to meet the deadline for correcting a fault in his application.
Muthaura filed his application for leave to appeal last Monday—the deadline by which such applications were to be made. However, the application contained an error which he attempted to correct by filing a corrigendum — a correction of an already printed work— later that day. However, the correction was received by the court on Tuesday, which was way past the deadline given for filing the application. Muthaura’s lawyer Karim Khan in his application said that he noticed “shortly” after filing the leave to appeal that an entire paragraph and its footnote had been “inadvertently deleted” and wanted to restore them.
However, chief prosecutor Luis Moreno-Ocampo immediately objected to this claiming there was some ‘mischief’ being planned. Ocampo has objected to the restoration of the paragraph which he says includes substantive submissions and even new jurisprudence in its attached footnote. “The defence is effectively seeking to file before the chamber, additional submissions and authorities (outside the statutory time‐limit for the filing of the application for leave to appeal) using a corrigendum as a vehicle for these purposes,” Ocampo has told the court.
He reminded the pre-trial chamber led by Justice Ekaterina Trendafilova that the appeals chamber had in the past stated “in conclusive terms” that the purpose of corrigenda is to correct typographical errors, and not to add or alter substance of submissions made in a document. The court had also previously rejected corrigendum where participants before the court had added a sentence and a footnote to their original filing instead of merely correcting typographical errors contained in their filings.
But Muthaura has now written to the judges refuting Ocampo’s claims and is asking the court to be allowed to file the alternative application containing the amendments. “The type of error that occurred with respect to the application for leave to appeal falls within the purpose and scope of corrigenda,” Khan says in his response to Ocampo. He denied that he was introducing new arguments and claimed the paragraph he wanted reinstated was inadvertently deleted, and was cross-referenced three times in subsequent paragraphs of the original application.
Khan pleads with the court to take note that the failure to allow this paragraph will have “significant impact” on Muthaura’s chances of convincing the judges to allow an appeal. For the judges to decide on whether or not to accept an application to appeal, it must meet three conditions— the issues of appeal affects fairness, expeditious conduct of the proceedings and whether their resolution would materially advance the proceedings.
Khan said failing to include the paragraph would mean that Muthaura will not be able to make any arguments regarding some aspects of four of the eight grounds he has based his appeal application on. Khan said his client would suffer ‘great prejudice’ if the correction was not allowed. He said the prosecution would, in contrast, suffer only ‘minimal prejudice’ due to the late notification of the corrigendum. The judges have yet to decide on the matter.
GEMA CORRUPT POLICE-FORCE TRYING TO ARREST AND DETAIN THE MP FOR MOYALE WHO REPRESENTS GARBA AND BORANAS MARGINALIZED COMMUNITIES>>
Court bars police from arresting MP
Moyale legislator Mohamud Mohamed Ali has obtained temporary orders restraining police from arresting him.
The order was granted by High Court judge Justice David Majanja after Ali rushed to court saying his arrest was “likely to be conducted in a manner accentuated by malice”.
Through his advocate Roger Sagana, the MP told the court he is willing to comply with orders that will be issued and he will also present himself to police for investigation. The MP said he was involved in an accident on February 1 and was admitted to Karen Hospital.
On February 2, Eastern PPO issued a warrant of arrest against the MP “over undisclosed charges.”
In the suit against the Attorney General and Commissioner of Police, he told the court he has never been summoned or interrogated by police over any accusations or charges. “The MP is very accessible and it is preposterous and malicious that an arrest warrant would be issued against him,” said the lawyer.
The MP said attempts being made by police to arrest him were unjustified.
Promoting peace
He is the MP for Moyale, which has recently been rocked by tribal violence pitting Borana and Gabra communities. The violence has worsened since November 2011.
The legislator said in papers filed in court that he has been in the forefront of promoting peace among various communities living in greater upper Eastern Province, especially in Marsabit County.
Earlier today, NTV (NATION MEDIA GROUP) had reported on Twitter and Facebook that politician and businessman Njenga Karume had died.
NTV have since been forced to retract the story saying “We have been reliably informed that this position is incorrect. The correct position is that he is bedridden and critically ill.
