But if Indigenous Peoples are holding 25 per cent of the world's lands and territories where 80 per cent of the world's pristine biodiversity is - who's 30 per cent are they going to be "conserving"?

The Kenya Human Rights Commission is thrilled to announce the appointment of veteran human rights defender @Maina_Kiai as the new chairperson of its board of directors.

It’s a heavy day. Still we rise. #RutoMustGo

The @LawSocietyofKe has secured conservatory orders suspending the punitive, arbitrary and illegal directive by the @CA_Kenya. The Authority must forthwith reinstate all signals it has shut down on account of their unconstitutional directive. Contempt of this order will be met with full prosecution of the leadership of CA.

The most powerful statements made today. I almost felt like crying. If someone asks you why we are on the streets, show them this video. #SiriNiNumbers #RutoMustGo #WantamSikuZote

You can’t teargas children, gag the media, deploy barbed wire, and still call yourself a government of the people.

We have even more reason to demonstrate today. Parliament continues to withhold CCTV footage that captured law enforcement officers killing our compatriots on June 25. As we demand #Justice4OurMashujaa, Parliament must release these videos.

[Willis Evans Otieno @otienowill]

You wake up at 5AM not to build hospitals, not to fix roads, not to feed children .
But to wrap Parliament in wire like a crime scene.
You barricade the city like you’re under siege. But the only thing you’re hiding from is the truth.

You don’t fear bandits. You don’t fear cartels. You don’t fear the murderers in government.
You fear the teacher who speaks out. The youth who stands up. The mother who says ‘enough.’
That’s who you fear. Because you know ; once the people wake up, you can’t govern them with lies anymore.

[KHRC @thekhrc]

Liar, liar, pants on fire!
William Ruto hates the Constitution, Kwamchetsi Makokha writes, noting, were it not for the necessity of swearing oath to take office, the words would have stuck in his craw.
Seven pledges Kenya Kwanza made in its campaign manifesto two years ago, which do not require any significant financial investment to fulfill, continue to haunt the Ruto regime as Kenyans demand an end to abductions and assassination.

We demand the immediate release of Billy Mwangi, Peter Muteti, and Benard Kavuli. If the government has legitimate charges against them, they must be brought before a court of law and afforded due process as guaranteed by our legal system. Anything less constitutes an abuse of power and a serious injustice.

Freedom of speech, thought, and expression are not privileges; they are fundamental rights enshrined in the Constitution of Kenya 2010. The erosion of these freedoms poses a grave threat that should concern every Kenyan.

Kenyans cannot remain silent or normalize these violations. We must stand united in rejecting these unconstitutional actions. The time to speak out is now. Let justice prevail, and let freedom ring across Kenya 🇰🇪

Kenyans abroad hit the streets.. #Maandamano

[Faith Odhiambo @FaithOdhiambo8]

Received distress calls on the ongoing protests and continue reaching out! I urge protesters to remain vigilant and peaceful and call our toll free line to report any incidents

[Ang'awa @AngawaEA]

If you are arrested, shout your name and phone number if you can. Those recording will upload them and we will know who you are. Please, please, shout your name in full.

The police are saying they have evidence of goons planning to disrupt peaceful protests but instead of using the evidence to arrest those culpable, they have gone ahead and advised Gen Zs to remain peaceful and vigilant. Watu si wajinga bwana.
