  Brazilian President Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva has won a fourth term in office, beating right-wing challenger Flávio Bolsonaro in a run-off that few expected him to win after he trailed in the first round. Brazil's electoral court says Lula took 51.79% of the vote to Bolsonaro's 48.21%, a lead of more than 4 million votes. He is the first candidate since Brazil returned to democracy to win the presidency after finishing second in the first round. He is also the first Brazilian president to win four terms, and will serve until 2030. Speaking to supporters in São Paulo, the 80-year-old thanked young people, women and teachers for backing him. He said Brazil "will not accept being anyone's backyard", a line he repeated throughout the campaign in defence of the country's sovereignty. Bolsonaro, a senator and the son of former president Jair Bolsonaro, refused to accept the outcome. He called the result "inexplicable" and said his lawyers would ask for t...

The shooting of a police constable at a training camp in Kitui County has raised a question that investigators will have to answer: how did a fatal shooting happen inside a facility meant for training and discipline? Police Constable Raphael Ojiambo was reportedly shot at close range at the Wikithuki Border Patrol Unit Training Camp in Tseikuru on Sunday, October 25, 2026. According to media reports, the shooting happened at around 3pm while he and a colleague were going through induction training. Both had recently graduated before being posted to the camp. The suspected shooter, identified in the reports as Constable Hussein Yusuf Ali, allegedly fled the camp. Police had not found him by Monday morning, October 26, and a manhunt is continuing. Witnesses and police accounts say Ojiambo was shot in the chest, with the bullet reportedly lodging near his left shoulder. Officers who responded recovered two G3 rifles, reportedly one issued to each officer, but investigators found no spent ...

Detectives in Kiambu are piecing together the chilling details of a domestic dispute that ended in bloodshed. Joseph Gatonye Mwangi, 38, was fatally stabbed in the chest during an argument with his partner over table‑banking savings.   Police say the suspect fled the scene but was arrested while walking towards Ndumberi, narrowly escaping an angry crowd. Investigators later recovered two knives, one believed to be the murder weapon, discarded in a Napier grass farm nearby. Gatonye’s bloodstained clothing was also collected as evidence.   The suspect remains in custody and is expected in court next week. Meanwhile, detectives continue questioning her to establish the full circumstances of the killing.   For Ndumberi residents, the crime has raised alarm over how quickly domestic disputes can escalate. The recovery of the weapon and the swift arrest have reassured locals, but the tragedy remains a stark reminder of the dangers lurking behind unresolved quarre...

A week ago, France saw some of its worst disorder in modern times. More than 2,000 shops and other businesses were hit, damage was put at hundreds of millions of euros, about 1,000 officers were injured, and over 2,500 people were arrested. Authorities admitted police had lost control in some cities and imposed curfews. On Saturday, October 24, the state tried to make sure that did not happen again. About 70,000 police were deployed, several cities restricted movement, and President Emmanuel Macron ruled that only demonstrations organised by recognised unions could go ahead. Hundreds of people have already been jailed after fast-track hearings for vandalism, arson and looting. The result was mixed. Interior ministry figures put turnout at 410,000, while unions claimed about 800,000, and most of the day was peaceful. Late on, police used tear gas and water cannon in several cities, barricades were set alight in Marseille, and a march in Paris ended in clashes. Still, officials said they...

  Arsenal beat Everton 2-0 at home on Saturday, October 24, and the scoreline undersells how one-sided the match was. Mikel Arteta's side had 58 per cent of the ball, 18 shots to Everton's 8, and 12 corners to 3. Yet only three of those 18 shots were on target, and the points were not safe until the second goal. The first came in the 7th minute, which gave Arsenal the early lead they wanted. The second arrived in the 68th, just as Arteta made three substitutions between the 67th and 68th minutes. The photo captions show defender Gabriel Magalhaes celebrating after scoring, so he got one of the two goals. Everton, under David Moyes, defended in numbers and absorbed the pressure. They had as many shots on target as Arsenal (three each), but collected three yellow cards, at 45, 66 and 79 minutes, as they tried to hold the line. Arsenal picked up one. The result puts Arsenal on a winning run before their trip to Liverpool on Sunday, November 1, which will be a much harder test.
