@bonifacemwangi@Jayjunior015 "Entire police occurrence books were rewritten to conceal the true number of those who died."
Old habits die hard:
Excerpts from the 1999 Akiwumi Report of the Judicial Commission Appointed to Inquire into Tribal Clashes in Kenya.

The International Criminal Court (ICC) suspects who basically own Kenya today bribed media house employees to delete post-election violence news stories from their YouTube channels, arranged for raw footage to disappear from newsrooms, and rewrote the narrative by portraying themselves as victims after funding the killings.
The kind of money thrown around to sink the case ran into the billions. They paid an employee of the Kenya National Commission on Human Rights (KNCHR) to steal the list of witnesses lined up against them at the ICC.
They used that list to bribe witnesses, paid hit squads to kill, and even made witnesses disappear if they refused to recant their testimonies. The officers who were in the hit squad that killed the witnesses were themselves also murdered. https://t.co/XXddL3JAbq
Some of the targeted hate I receive is because I refused to hide my images or testify falsely at The Hague that the violence I witnessed was spontaneous rather than organised. Instead, we travelled the entire country, displaying the pictures and holding healing and reconciliation discussions.
I was even approached not by the two main ICC suspects, but by Kibaki’s people, who were trying to protect his key civil servant. That civil servant was facing charges of five crimes against humanity: murder, forcible transfer of population, rape, persecution, and other inhumane acts.
Entire police occurrence books were rewritten to conceal the true number of those who died. Almost 20 years later, there has not been a single conviction for the post-election violence.
Thousands died, hundreds (possibly thousands) of women were raped, and over 500,000 people were displaced. Their animals, properties, and land were stolen.
The 2007–2008 chapter was never closed. The story continues, and if you make the mistake of re-electing people whose only language is to bribe everyone and kill those who disagree, Kenya will experience even worse violence than in 2007–08.
He has already normalised sending masked men to abduct citizens in full view of cameras, while goons work with the police to beat and violate opposition leaders and their supporters. Soon those masked men and goons will be shooting and killing people on live TV. That is exactly what happened on 25 June 2024. Why do you think almost all senior police leadership in Nairobi comes from one community, and that the police boss who ordered a blogger’s abduction and murder is being groomed to be the next Inspector General of Police?
Let me stop here. You can find some of the photos I shot in 2007–08 https://t.co/LRDxDzXwu4.
Finally, @DCI_Kenya boss Mohamed Amin: since January, your special teams have been forced to sign that they received per diems when they travel for out-of-station missions, yet they receive nothing. They are being forced to sleep in their cars and beg for food.
Stop treating your special units like homeless people. Who is stealing their allowances? Or is that the money State House is using to bribe voters and pay bloggers?
The struggle to liberate Kenya continues… #NeverAgainKE
UDA sent Ol Kalou residents a 500 bob alarm clock this morning, complete with a Vote Muchina SMS reminder.
IEBC is currently looking the other way like they've been put on silent mode.
As always: kula shibe yako, lakini kwa kura... do the necessary.
1,133 dead. 650,000 displaced. Yet, legally, "nobody did it." The collapse of the ICC cases is a masterclass in how political power can systematically erase evidence, buy off witnesses, and sanitize history. We must keep posting the real clips to keep the truth alive.
You support a fellow who disobeyed court orders as a mere CS to be the president of this great republic? What do you think they can do as president? Humour me. Kenyans see red flags all over AND then still go there and hope for a different outcome. Learn or perish.
A Kenyan from Nakuru county called Laban Omusindi has filed a petition seeking to amend the Constitution to allow citizens to directly recall the President and governors in the middle of their terms. Yesterday Sen @edwinsifuna made his submissions on this and reflected on how indeed Kenyans have lost all trust in both senate and parliament on matters accountability to the executive and county governments. Kazi kwetu sisi! We must elect better leaders.
Reminds of that guy who said "THE PEOPLE-SHALL MANDATORY!"
I just came across this PEV 2007 video clip where homes were being set ablaze in Rift Valley. We must now allow ourselves to rewrite these old heartbreaking stories again.
What we are seeing now is what was predicted in the Waki Commission Report, the Kriegler Commission Report, the Kofi Annan Mediation — Kenya National Dialogue and Reconciliation (KNDR, 2008–2013) and the TJRC Report (2008–2013). We must stop this before it gets out of hand
Susan Kihika said that she has no urgency to reopen War memorial hospital. She has been stopping the reopening despite the court orders.
Her urgency is watching World Cup. She’s now in US watching World Cup with Mburu.
The fight to liberate Kenya from the chokehold of illegal, odious debt requires exactly this kind of patriotic innovation. We cannot pay for what we did not receive, and tracking it in real-time is a powerful weapon for public awareness.
Let us engage. Our youth must lead this vanguard for economic justice.
Kenya is not dealing with random criminals, I refuse to join such a chorus. We are dealing with a procurement system of violence with well known politicians as the buyers while the unemployed Kenyans are the commodity trading impunity as their currency!
The goons and criminal gangs have been allowed to run a parallel economy with well known buyers and sellers; until we prosecute the buyers, the market remains open!
As Civil Society Organizations, we will not fall under the pressure of such coercion and intimidation. We will call out these ills for what they are; outright defiance against our Constitution.
I stand with @dianagichengo, @TISAKenya and the entire Civil Society community.
To remove Kasongo from power, we need everyone on board.
We should put our differences aside and bring everyone whose aim is to send Kasongo home, on board.
It is 2027 or never.
IEBC is showing us exactly who they are by doing absolutely nothing about the blatant bribery happening in Ol Kalou.
If they can't manage a small process without looking away, how will they handle the entire country?
Itabidii sisi wenyewe tulinde kura zetu in 2027.
