Mombasa protest ilikuwa inaenda uninterrupted. Until someone brought a coffin written 'KILLER COPS' in bright red Njege wamezua vurugu mbaya. Why would anyone bring such a coffin to a protest? First, because it's factual. Second, because facts must be spoken.

Rules for policing protests today:
✔ Protect life.
✔ Facilitate peaceful assembly.
✔ No live ammunition.
✔ Protect journalists, medics and observers.
✔ Use force only when strictly necessary and proportionate.
The Constitution protects the right to peaceful protest. The duty of the police is to protect both people and rights. #ProtectTheProtest #JusticeForOurMashujaas #JusticeForTheFallen

some of the most goated moments of protests these past two years.

[Wanjira Wanjiru🇰🇪🇵🇸 @wanjirunjira]

The struggle of people against power is the struggle of memory against forgetting. May they become seeds of a resistance that can never be uprooted. Forever in our hearts. #RUTOMUSTGO #June25th #JusticeForOurMashujaa

NEW: First Lady Rachel Ruto has just adopted 33 hectares of the Mau Forest Complex, following her earlier "adoption" of Kakamega Forest.

Let’s look at the pattern:
-Kakamega Forest gets "adopted."
-Logging continues elsewhere & grabbing
-Mau Forest gets "adopted."
-Meanwhile, the govt is actively cutting down Imenti

Forest for a State Lodge and a golf course despite a court order.

What exactly does "adopting" a public forest mean under Kenyan law?

Is this conservation, or is it a backdoor for gradual degazettement and commercial takeover?

We have too many questions and zero transparent answers.

[Francis Wanjiku @TheNjoroge]

Kenya has two sides, one that will call for international climate conferences and the other that will cut down a forest to develop a golf course.

[Wamathai @Wamathai]

Remembering all those we lost their lives to an autocratic government that can't handle criticism or dissent of any kind. May they continue resting in power.

🔴Updated casualty toll from the Lebanese Ministry of Health: 4,230 civilians killed and 12,179 wounded in Israeli attacks since March 2nd.

Report from Mifdoun, where three civilians were killed earlier today in an Israeli attack. The Israelis sent over an armed quadcopter to intimidate us.

To everyone who was harmed and maimed on June 25 - our hearts bleed and we feel the pain. We are especially angry because the senior perpetrator got away with it as he has for 33 years. Maimed and killed his way into a presidency. Planning to stay by maiming and killing.

A man arrested for simply carrying a flag in a suit!!

Roughed up on the streets his one question answered "NIMEKOSA???"

RUTO MUST GO!

[June 25th @Jasiri_D30]

This is the first government that has criminalised the waving of the Kenyan flag.

I will never forget the bravery I witnessed on 25 June 2024. So many people were afraid, yet determined to show up. On that day, the impossible happened. Its reverberations are still unfolding, and perhaps have yet to be fully felt.

Nchi yetu ya Kenya
Tunayoipenda
Tuwe tayari kuilinda.

These are not just mere words. Kuilinda kutokana na uongozi mbaya. Kuilinda kutokana na polisi kutumia nguvu kupita kiasi, kuilinda kutokana na hujuma za kidemokrasia.

African Corrupt Leaders and The Hands Behind Them

Over the past couple of weeks, 2 former high level government officials from Nigeria and Ghana living in the UK and US respectively, who are both subjects of high profile corruption probes in their home countries, received legal guarantees of state protection against extradition to face trial at home. Once again, we are confronted with an issue that many in the Global North love to pretend does not exist.

Africa's "fantastically corrupt" governments are always cited as the reason behind the continent's state of underdevelopment. What is deliberately omitted by the Western loudmouths who recycle this talking point and infinitum is the foundational role that their own governments play in the acquisition, transfer and warehousing of stolen African state resources, as well as the shielding and protection offered to corrupt African government officials by the same Western governments that have a lot to say about "fighting corruption in Africa."
