@miss_mumbz No historical analysis of policing just liberal spiel and confidence, like the police institution exists in a historical bubble and merely increasing their pay changes everything 💀
Vote if you want. But it's false and a denial of Kenyan history to claim that it is the ritual of casting a ballot every 5 years that determines the future. That would just mortgage the future to politicians. It is participation in the years between elections that really matters.
Or we just don't vote. The legitimacy of the state and the political class relies on photos of us queuing at the polling stations, and proudly showing the ink on our fingers, followed by controlling the results through killing people. What if we don't show up in the first place?
Being killed after the polls has become an integral part of the voting. So let's not vote. If there are empty polling stations during the day, the state and the political class will have to cook up some other story other than winners and losers. We need to stop showing up for state functions, from voting to rallies. It's our naive participation in these rituals that is giving the state permission to kill us.

To our Tanzanian brothers and sisters, we the sovereign people of Kenya, we distance ourselves from these statements.
William Ruto no longer speaks for us.
William Ruto, Yoweri Museveni and Samia Suluhu are birds of a feather.
They all have blood in their hands. Just like Yoweri Museveni and Samia Suluhu, William Ruto's murderous regime has been abducting, torturing and killing young Kenyans. They are reading from the same script.
Kenyans, Ugandans and Tanzanians must unite gainst the three murderous regime. They cannot kill us and lead us.
Despots MUST fall ✊

COURT SOLIDARITY CALL ✊🏾
📍Case: MCCR E3392/2025
📍When: Monday, 27th October 2025
📍Where: Makadara Magistrate’s Court
This is one of those #GenZMatters
Seven young people have been held at Lang’ata Women’s Prison and Nairobi Remand since July 8th, 2025 (over three months now) simply because they cannot afford Ksh 100,000 bail.
Despite multiple bail review applications, Magistrate Stephanie Bett has consistently refused to reduce bail, even though terrorism-accused persons have been granted bail of Ksh 50,000 or less.
These youth are not terrorists.
They are simply poor and being punished for it.
Now, the Magistrate has set the matter for hearing on 27th October; without a single pre-trial or adequate preparation. All that’s been done so far is plea taking and mentions on bail.
Meanwhile, 47 others remain in custody connected to these GenZ arrests:
•1 in Makindu
•46 in Kirinyaga
We call for court solidarity.
Stand with these young Kenyans as they face a system that criminalizes poverty.

21 days since Bob and Nick were abducted in Kampala, Uganda. Let's petition the Ugandan authorities to #FreeBobNjagi and #FreeNicholasOyoo via email, here: https://t.co/g6XXb7kwGA
It's been 20 days since Bob Njagi and Nicholas Oyoo were abducted by armed and uniformed officers in Kampala. It’s time to directly tell Uganda President Yoweri Museveni that we want them to be released and returned to their families. Please send this letter to him and tell everyone in your life to do the same here https://t.co/eFgT1l2PDU

On MashujaaDay, I honor Rex Masai, a fearless hero killed on June 20, 2024, sparking more Gen Z protests. His sacrifice ignited a movement. I honour the 200+ souls lost, their courage echoing in our fight for justice. 🕯️ Join me to celebrate their legacy! 🇰🇪 #GenZHeroes
An Act of Parliament cannot vitiate the Constitution. Freedom of Expression is entrenched and guaranteed in the Bill of Rights. Cybercrime Act is therefore null and void.

Na jana askari wa Githinji wa nyama walishoot mourners. Na yule mama across the border aliua watoto for stoning her billboard. Na Bobi Wine has to cross the border to hold a rally. East Africa is under the yoke of authoritarian regimes. My grief is so heavy.
These are the men who fired inside a packed Kasarani Stadium.
