A typical post picks up 172 interactions against 2.0M followers, an engagement rate of 0.009%. Measured over 23 original posts, its engagement rate beats 31% of 21,624 tracked accounts of a similar size, which puts it in the middle of its size range rather than at either end. Posts are seen about 20K times each, and 0.852% of those impressions turn into an interaction. That is about 1.00% of the follower count, which is the gap between an audience on paper and an audience in a timeline. Posting runs at about 1.3 post a day over the last 30 days, with activity on roughly 73% of days. Most posts go out around 05:00 UTC, and Wednesday is the busiest day of the week. Of the 23 posts sampled, 96% carry an image or video and 13% are part of a thread. The account's strongest tracked post pulled 4.0K interactions, about 23x its own typical post.

Compared with accounts its own size

The People’s President's engagement rate beats 31% of the tracked X accounts closest to it in follower count (21,624 accounts, accounts of similar size (decile 10 of 10)). A percentile is spread evenly by construction, so 50 really is the middle of that group and 90 really is its top tenth.

On engagement per impression rather than per follower it beats 42% of the same group. When those two numbers disagree, the gap is about how far its posts travel rather than how people react to them.

Where this sits in the catalog

At 0.009%, The People’s President sits above the 10th percentile of the 217,518 accounts in this comparison. That places it in the bottom 25% band, which runs below 0.025%.

Engagement rate as a share of followers, across the 217,518 accounts we have scanned enough to measure. The axis is logarithmic, because the top and bottom of this population are about 21,717 times apart and a linear axis would flatten everything below the median into a single point.

Posting timing

This account posts most often around 05:00 UTC, and Wednesday is its busiest day of the week. The bars below are the catalog-wide pattern, with this account's own busiest slot marked. They do not show how this account performs at each hour: we keep one aggregate per account, not one per hour, so that measurement does not exist in our data.

Formats this account uses

Its own posting mix on the left, and what each of those formats does across every account we track on the right. Only formats where the effect clears our publish test appear here, so an empty row is a format we could not measure rather than one that does nothing.

These are catalog-wide differences applied to this account's own posting mix, not a measurement of how each format performs for this account specifically. We keep one median per account, not one per format per account, so the second thing is not something this data can tell you.

    The Bible says that when the wicked perish, there are shouts of joy. Millions of citizens across several African countries will now sleep easier because Wicknell Chivayo is dead. Chivayo was a money launderer for several African leaders who stole from their people, including Kenya’s President Ruto. Those leaders looted public funds and murdered those who dared to protest. Chivayo helped them hide the money. Just like that, Ruto has lost one of his biggest wallets. Ruto dined with Chivayo almost every other week and gave him a Kenyan diplomatic passport. In August, he was seen driving him around something he has never been seen doing publicly for his wife or even his children. And just like that, the man dies, most likely taking the secrets of where the stolen money is hidden with him. Ruto is weeping right now. This is only the beginning. The blood of the innocent Gen Z youth Ruto murdered is crying out for justice, and they will get it. It is also a reminder that no matter how much you steal, you cannot bribe death. It is all vanity. In the words of our national anthem, justice will be our shield and defender. Once we get into power, we shall investigate the late Chivayo’s criminal activities in Kenya and recover the money he hid for Ruto.

    Talanta Stadium was budgeted at KSh 35 billion, but we ended up paying KSh 45.85 billion. That is an additional KSh 10.85 billion that was likely pocketed by Ruto and his friends. A similar 60,000-seater stadium in Ivory Coast the Olympic Stadium of Ebimpé, which hosted the final of the 2023 Africa Cup of Nations cost only KSh 33 billion. Last month, Harambee Stars players went on strike over unpaid allowances of approximately KSh 80,000 per player. Yet Mr Ruto is ready to pay Bayern Munich and Ajax between KSh 250–300 million each in appearance fees just to come and officially open Talanta Stadium. That figure does not even include air travel, accommodation, security, and other related expenses. Ruto wants to pay foreign teams to play at our stadium while inviting our own football stars and aspiring players to sit as spectators. There is zero value for Kenya in bringing wazungu teams to open our stadium. If they want to play here, they should sponsor themselves not at the expense of a country that cannot pay its teachers and doctors. If we must invite foreign teams, then in the spirit of Pan-Africanism, why not invite the Africa Cup of Nations champions Senegal, or our neighbours from the East African Community? We should ask their governments to honour us by sending and covering the cost of their national teams to come play at the opening of an expensive stadium that was never even a priority. Better still, why not organise a week-long football tournament for young footballers from every county, with prize money of KSh 5 million or more? Talanta Stadium is ours. We will not allow our taxes to pay for foreign teams. I have instructed my lawyer to file a Freedom of Information (FOI) request to obtain the full cost of this proposed exhibition match. I refuse the wastage of taxpayers’ money, and I shall move to court if Ruto does not stop this hallucination. We must invest in our own footballers. Talanta Stadium official opening match should be an opportunity for Kenyan players to shine not a stage to entertain Ruto’s fantasies of hosting Bayern Munich and Ajax Amsterdam. Football fans worldwide should also know this: since William Ruto took office in September 2022 through September 2026, police officers have killed 3,958 Kenyans. That averages nearly three Kenyans killed every day by the brutal police force working under Ruto’s regime. These two teams should decline any invitation to do public relations for a government that kills its own citizens simply for demanding better governance. Tumekataa.

    Kenyan entertainer DJ Macdee has successfully tracked down and recovered his stolen Ksh 280,000 Pioneer DJM-S11 mixer, only to be hit with a shocking twist involving the police. The high-end equipment was broken into and stolen from his car on July 7th. After spotting it being advertised online a month later, Macdee partnered with officers from the Mugutha Police Station to launch a sting operation. The trail led them to arrest a suspect, DJ Mkenia, who ultimately escorted the team to a residence in Parklands owned by Shah Ashish. Inside the house, the mixer was recovered alongside a massive stash of other suspected stolen electronic goods, including TVs, speakers, and generators. However, the breakthrough has been marred by controversy. DJ Macdee discovered that the primary suspect, Shah Ashish, was mysteriously released on cash bail by the Mugutha OCS at midnight without his knowledge. The DJ is now publicly calling on the Directorate of Criminal Investigations (DCI) to ensure transparency and answers as to why a key suspect was released in the dead of night.

    Ruto is behaving like a jilted lover who threatens to kill himself if you leave, but the moment you show signs of leaving, he kills you and blames you for making him do it. The violence in Homa Bay was organised by Ruto’s government and his minions Wanga and Kaluma. This is a sign of desperation by an illegitimate and unpopular president whose days in power are numbered. In a year’s time, Ruto and his accomplices will be facing trials for killing Kenyans. We will not forget and justice will not be denied!

Reading these numbers

A typical post picks up 172 interactions against 2.0M followers, an engagement rate of 0.009%. Measured over 23 original posts, its engagement rate beats 31% of 21,624 tracked accounts of a similar size, which puts it in the middle of its size range rather than at either end. Posts are seen about 20K times each, and 0.852% of those impressions turn into an interaction. That is about 1.00% of the follower count, which is the gap between an audience on paper and an audience in a timeline. Posting runs at about 1.3 post a day over the last 30 days, with activity on roughly 73% of days. Most posts go out around 05:00 UTC, and Wednesday is the busiest day of the week.

What is The People’s President's engagement rate on X?
The People’s President (@bonifacemwangi) has an engagement rate of 0.009%, based on the median interactions across 23 original posts from the last 30 days against 2,013,966 followers. Replies, reposts and quote-posts of other people are excluded from that sample.
Is that a good engagement rate?
At 0.009%, The People’s President sits above the 10th percentile of the 217,518 accounts in this comparison. Those comparison accounts are all large ones, because our scanning cadence is weighted towards big accounts, so this is a ranking among peers of similar scale rather than a ranking across X.
Does @bonifacemwangi have real engagement?
Its engagement rate beats 31% of the tracked X accounts closest to it in follower count (21,624 accounts), which puts it in the middle of its size range group. Ranking inside a size band matters because engagement rate falls as accounts grow, so a raw rate would mostly re-measure the follower count. It is a starting point for a look at follower quality, not a verdict on it.
When does @bonifacemwangi post?
Most posts go out around 05:00 UTC, and Wednesday is its busiest day, at roughly 1.3 posts per day across the measured window.
