[Akili Dada @AkiliDada]

A girl's case, settled for a goat. Not a metaphor, an actual account, from an actual letter, written by a girl in Kenya describing how 'justice' worked for her.

No court nearby. No lawyer she could afford. And when a case did get heard, the person found guilty simply bribed their way past it.

This isn't one bad outcome. It's the predictable result of a system where courts, police, and legal aid were never distributed with girls like her in mind. Distance and cost aren't side effects here; they're the actual mechanism keeping her out.

Read her letter and tag someone who has the power to put a functioning court, a real police presence, or an actual legal aid budget within her reach. Silence on this is a choice too.

KHRC’s @nerima_annet writes that the Kenyan government has shifted from acting as a peacemaker to facilitating impunity.
She demands that the government immediately declare all Rapid Support Forces members currently in the country persona non grata, withdraw its statement of support for the RSF, and offer a clear, unconditional apology to the Sudanese people.

🔴 Webinar Today! 🔴

Imagine a world where voices vanish overnight, where justice is silenced in the shadows. In East Africa, the rise in abductions, enforced disappearances, and extrajudicial killings raises urgent questions:

❓ Who speaks for the missing?
❓ What safeguards exist to protect the innocent?
❓ How can the rule of law push back against impunity?

Join the EALS Rule of Law Committee today as we uncover the harsh realities and explore the opportunities to restore justice and accountability in our region.
