  • Kenyans are marking the 34th anniversary of Saba Saba Day - when people staged nationwide protests demanding free and fair elections.
    It was a pivotal moment that ended single-party rule in Kenya.
    Activists are drawing parallels between the events of 1990 to recent demonstrations against now-abandoned tax rises, which left 39 people dead in a violent police crackdown.
    Al Jazeera’s Zein Basravi reports from Nairobi, Kenya.

    Shameful act of hooliganism in Kenya by the same government that is supposed to protect its citizens. Sad that the innocent, peaceful, harmless, young protesters are the ones bearing the pain directed by the government's agents, the police force. We need a change in governance of this great nation. Ruto must be accountable

  • @orisyoungie728
    @orisyoungie728 5 дней назад +1

    in 1990s
    1. ruto was a leader of youth for kanu 92, responsible for suppressing protests for democracy in kenya, while perpetuating the dictatorship of the late dictator arap moi.
    2. 1992, i saw youths shot to death by police during saba saba riots in nairobi and kiambu. and accross kenya.. similar to what happened last month.
    3. ruto never saw any struggle for better governance in kenya or engaged in it.. His friend uhuru kenyatta included..
    4. the struggle for better governance continues with gen Z.. its not over yet.

      Majority of Gen-Z didn’t even vote in 2022. That could have been a “blessing” in disguise because the protests had nothing to do with Azimio or Kenya Kwanza but on corrupt leadership and mismanagement of funds. If it had been Azimio in Power, the young generation born in the 96s,97s would have reacted the same way. Their thinking is different and not about “mtu wetu” like majority of older generations
