This is ridiculous. As long as the roads are the way they are; matatus and nganyas allowed to drive the way they want; no lighting anywhere; no mass public transit, this will be an extractive policy.
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.
This is the reason @susankihika had War Memorial Hospital closed. She got her hotel, yet the hospital remains closed.
There is no way to shame the shameless
A reminder that Eric Shieni was taken out by a snipper shot because he was running for his life. Unarmed, and trying to survive the chaotic streets messed up by Ruto's police the young man was killed in cold blood because we have a tone deaf regime. A regime that knows it all.
If you'd like to picture the area that was razed down in gikomba, picture from odeon kule river road and then walk all the way to all saints cathedral. These are livelihoods, families, loans,bills, rent up in flames. For some, restarting isn't an option, it's pain and defeat.
europe spent 400 years using slave labour in colonies to build their wealth, rebranded this extraction model in the 20th century and somehow their citizens still believe their social conditions is a result of some superior intellect rather than inhuman violence
it's called structural adjustment program. created mass poverty in the 80s/90s and that eventually led to the mass adoption of evangelical christianity (and the islamic equivalent).
After the attack at All Saints Cathedral by goons, two people went and made a report at the police station reporting theft of their phones. They were immediately paid 24,000 cash each to replace the phones and urged to drop the case.
BREAKING: Tensions Are Escalating In Albania.
After days of protests over a controversial luxury resort project, demonstrators in Rrjoll, northern Albania, tore down fencing surrounding the construction site.
Protesters say land belonging to roughly 200 local families was confiscated to make way for the development.
The confrontation comes as environmental and anti-corruption demonstrations continue to spread across the country.
This is no longer just a dispute over a resort.
It’s becoming a broader fight over land rights, political influence, and who benefits from Albania’s development boom.
On this day in 1980, Walter Rodney was killed by a car bomb planted in a walkie talkie in his car. Marxist historian, intellectual, and anti-colonial activist from Guyana, taught Pan-Africanism, socialism, Black liberation movement, and anti-imperial politics. He was 38.
African elites aren’t simply weak or corrupt, they are structurally positioned to serve foreign interests because that’s where their class power came from.
Their wealth depended on keeping the extraction system intact.
Life expectancy in Gaza has dropped from 75 years to 35 year, apart from on going genocide, denial of health care, food, disease, infections, people bleeding to death after a small wound.
It is all planned, manmade and designed by the state of Israel.
