“I advised Uhuru to ban Shisha” Robert Alai confesses as he reveals other changes Kenyans should expect soon

Robert Alai has reached the upper echelons of government, he is now directly advising president Uhuru. Shisha smokers have Alai to blame for the ban.

Shisha smokers were on Thursday dealt a huge blow after the government banned its sale in the country. Health Ministry through a Gazette notice banned the importation, manufacture, advertising and sale of the product in Kenya.

“No person shall import, manufacture, sell, offer for sale, use, advertise, promote, facilitate or encourage shisha smoking in Kenya,” a notice by Health Cabinet Secretary Cleopa Mailu read in part.

Uhuru and Ruto listen to the common man

Robert Alai has taken credit for the ban on shisha smoking in Kenya. The government blogger says he advised the president and his deputy to ban shisha and they listened.

Alai also cautions that more radical changes will follow soon. He says that Kenyans should expect changes in internet use soon.

“I advised the govt to ban Shisha and it has. President @UKenyatta and DP @WilliamsRuto listens to the common man. Give them that. They listen to advice of the common man. You will see some great changes in data privacy, UAV and internet use laws,” Robert Alai tweeted.

KOT reacts

Kenyans on Twitter reacted in fury over Alai’s confession. KOT is perplexed at how fast the blogger has become influential in government ever since he switched allegiance.
