My people, Iโve been following what happened at that checkpoint with Hussein Khalid etc and ATPU. I know many are angry and attacking them.
Now, hear me out, some of you might not agree.
It might look wrong for Khalid etc to ask police to remove balaclavas. But the bigger question is: should police at public checkpoints wear them at all?
Yes, ATPU officers need balaclavas for dangerous operations. But what about the safety of people like us?
Last year, people in balaclavas abducted Kenyans and police later said those werenโt officers.
Imagine if one day, bad guys set up a checkpoint wearing balaclavas. How would anyone know whoโs real?
The law is clear: under the Police Act, officers have powers to stop and search, but those powers must be exercised transparently and responsibly. Public checkpoints are meant to protect citizens, not scare them or create confusion.
We need normal uniformed officers at checkpoints. They protect us, and keep things transparent.
So yes, Khalid may have acted wrong, but the focus should be on rules, not just people.
Because if we defend the system & status quo blindly today, it could be used against us tomorrow.
Dear Donald Trump @realDonaldTrump ,
We are young people from Kenya.
There's a Kenyan governor and an MP who are hiding in America servicing their lavish lifestyles using our taxes.
One is Susan Kihika, Governor Nakuru and Abraham Kirwa, MP Mosop.
Kindly depot those two Kenyans.
Thank you!
Comrades,
We reject nonsense.
I agree with @AokoOtieno_. Our comrade must be freed.
We refuse to accept this injustice and will amplify our voices until action is taken.
Make noise, disrupt, and ensure they hear us loud and clear.
Viva!
