A typical post picks up 526 interactions against 931K followers, an engagement rate of 0.057%. Measured over 54 original posts, its engagement rate beats 61% of 19,932 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 16K times each, and 3.28% of those impressions turn into an interaction. That is about 1.72% of the follower count, which is the gap between an audience on paper and an audience in a timeline. Posting runs at about 1.9 posts a day over the last 30 days, with activity on roughly 73% of days. Most posts go out around 14:00 UTC, and Monday is the busiest day of the week. Of the 54 posts sampled, 93% carry an image or video. The account's strongest tracked post pulled 8.5K interactions, about 16x its own typical post. Recurring topics include #ukatibacaravan, #resetrestorerebuild, #chukuakura.

Compared with accounts its own size

David Maraga's engagement rate beats 61% of the tracked X accounts closest to it in follower count (19,932 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 81% 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 0.057%, David Maraga sits above the 25th percentile of the 200,567 accounts in this comparison. That places it in the below the median band, which runs 0.024% to 0.141%.

Engagement rate as a share of followers, across the 200,567 accounts we have scanned enough to measure. The axis is logarithmic, because the top and bottom of this population are about 22,898 times apart and a linear axis would flatten everything below the median into a single point.

Posting timing

This account posts most often around 14:00 UTC, and Monday 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.

Engagement by hour posted, UTCTwenty-four bars, one per UTC hour. Each bar shows how posts published in that hour compare with their own authors' median engagement. Bars above the centre line ran higher than the median, bars below ran lower. A marker flags Busiest hour: 14:00 UTC.

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.

This account's posting mix compared with catalog-wide effects
FormatThis accountCatalog effect95% intervalAccounts behind it
Image or video93% of posts+111%+108% to +115%34K
Outbound link4% of posts-41%-42% to -40%32K

  • 93% of this account's sampled posts carry an image or video. Across the catalog, posts with an image or video run 111% above the same accounts' other posts.
  • 4% of its posts carry a link off X. Across the catalog, posts with an outbound link run 41% below the same accounts' other posts.
  • Its average post runs 435 characters, which falls in the over 280 characters band. Across the catalog, posts over 280 characters run 15% above the same accounts' other posts.

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.

    Seven days ago, I called on President William Ruto to discharge his constitutional and administrative duty to release the report of the National Taskforce on Police Reforms, which I submitted to him on 16 November 2023. That call remains unanswered. The President had before him the historic occasion of Katiba Day to release this report and set in motion its implementation. He let the moment pass. I now have the solemn responsibility to make the report public. I am in the final stages of consultation with various stakeholders and shall communicate the next steps in due course. Kenya deserves police institutions that serve and protect her people. #Ukombozi2027

What is David Maraga's engagement rate on X?
David Maraga (@dkmaraga) has an engagement rate of 0.057%, based on the median interactions across 54 original posts from the last 30 days against 930,985 followers. Replies, reposts and quote-posts of other people are excluded from that sample.
Is that a good engagement rate?
At 0.057%, David Maraga sits above the 25th percentile of the 200,567 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 @dkmaraga have real engagement?
Its engagement rate beats 61% of the tracked X accounts closest to it in follower count (19,932 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 @dkmaraga post?
Most posts go out around 14:00 UTC, and Monday is its busiest day, at roughly 1.93 posts per day across the measured window.
