Huey P. Newton was right:
"The heavily armed police force does not exist to stop violent crime. It operates exclusively as a taxpayer funded street gang , deliberately designed to brutally enforce the permanent starvation of the lower class."
This was at the MultiMedia University.

Ask me about a truthful, trustworthy and honorable leader, I will show you @dkmaraga. Even when he was released after our arrest, he embodied integrity and demonstrated exemplary leadership by staying at the police station until everyone was safely released. Who does that?

🇰🇪🇺🇸 | Kenyan police shot dead a protester as hundreds demonstrated against a US quarantine facility in Nanyuki.
The facility is for US nationals exposed to Ebola. Not for Kenyans.
The protester was shot in the head and at least 19 people were arrested, according to Reuters, at the site where the US is building a 50-bed unit at Laikipia Air Base.
Kenya has no Ebola case of its own; the unit would hold US nationals exposed to the virus in the Democratic Republic of Congo and Uganda. It runs on roughly KSh 1.68 billion — about USD 13 million in US aid.
This is not the first killing: on 1 June police shot two protesters dead and arrested 31. Demonstrators call their country a "dumping ground" and have vowed to march until the plan is scrapped.
Washington says it "cannot and will not allow" any cases to enter US territory. Kenyan President William Ruto calls the deal "mutually beneficial" — while his own police keep killing the Kenyans who refuse it.

Fred Matiang'i: I have noted that the only change the President has been able to make is the appointment of Mr. John Ololtuaa as the new PS in the Ministry of Education, but that is not enough. They need to have a different mindset in the way they are looking at the education sector.
We were arrested by plainclothes police officers and taken to Lang’ata Police Station.
The officers later informed us that CJ Maraga, being a senior citizen, was free to leave. But he refused.
Instead of securing his own freedom, he chose to stand in solidarity with those he had been arrested alongside. He made it clear that he would only leave once everyone else was released. If that did not happen, he was prepared to spend the night in the cells with us.
That moment spoke volumes about his character. True leadership is not about privilege or personal comfort—it is about standing with your people, especially in difficult times.
A great leader in my books.
