@rigathi That is what we've been saying, fine sir. The system YOU are part of has been criminalizing dissenting voices and differing ideologies to justify use of force. Backward and barbaric, huh? Welcome to this side of the fence :)

The use of the criminal justice system to manage politics is an outdated political strategy that was used in the past.

Dr Willy M Mutunga, Chief Justice, Kenya (2011-16)
“Each generation must, out of relative obscurity, discover its mission, fulfill it, or betray it.” -Frantz Fanon I believe GenZ is a revolutionary mass movement that is going to face the following challenges: Serious challenges from the discredited two factions of the ruling class; The use of ethnicity, race, gender, religion, and money to stop the movement from succeeding; and Foreign interests that support the elite although these interests may want, as they have done in the past, to capture the movement and own it. I believe that the broad program of what the movement stands for must now attack all barons in the two factions. The movement will die if it is aligned with any of the two factions. Your agenda must now come out. Change is a marathon, and you protest, you should not lose focus on your goals, and most importantly ensure that every GenZ is a registered voter. You must start thinking about the protection of those whom the state is targeting. To imagine that the President will just forget about this and move on is naïve. There will be an attempt to launch a counter-assault by the government. Just like Moi in the 80’s and 90’s, the government will attempt to silence all voices of the revolution. The difference this time is that Kenyans have alternative media that they are using to report on what is going on. Social media is both a tool, a weapon, and a shield for GenZs. Many innocent Kenyans have been killed and maimed by police bullets and state violence. We must demand Justice for the victims of state brutality. Part of the justice is to also ensure that those who have been used by the state to cause these deaths and injuries are arrested and submitted to the legal process. It is time for accountability. Those who have paid the ultimate price for the constitution must be compensated. For long, Kenya has stagnated. The educated and diverse youth population is firmly in the 21st century but the government and the state are stuck in the past. Instead of leading Kenya into prosperity, they are plowing us into regression. The GenZs are saying that it’s time to demand a better nation that serves the people and creates a nation where everyone can find prosperity. This cannot happen if corruption, self-interest, and self-promotion continue to be the drivers of leadership in Kenya. This new Kenya demands a new resolve and new ideas. It is time to stand on the principles of Article 10 of the Constitution. Kenyans have embraced and defended the Constitution with their very lives. The work of observing and upholding the Constitution is the beginning of the journey to prosperity, and we are on the right track. Do not get derailed GenZs.

LAW SOCIETY OF KENYA STATEMENT ON THE STATE OF THE NATION Fellow Kenyans, once more we wake up to a sad day! Extra-Judicial killings, incidents of police abductions, torture and being kept in communicado for several days, are back like never before! Reports that we have received indicate that about 50 young Kenyans have so far been abducted including my own personal assistant Ernest Nyerere who was picked up from his residence this morning at 5:00am. We are still looking for Shadrack Kiprono aka Shad Khalif, Osama Otero, Gabriel Oguda, John Frank Githiaka-Franje, Drey Mwangi, Worldsmith, Hilla254 and many more who we are yet to identify. Our forefathers were taken through the same treatment by the white man in pre-independent Kenya but they never gave up. When the colonial courts jailed more than 500 Mau Mau supporters in September 1952 without legal representation, Argwings K’Odhek single handedly took on the formidable challenge of defending their (Mau Mau) rights by arguing in court that “Human rights are indivisible and universal thus, freedom cannot be appropriate in the West but inapplicable in Africa.” Fellow Advocates and people of good will, Argwings K’Odhek set the bar for us and we must live up to his dream of a free and united Kenya. But first, I have a message to the international community who for a second week running, remain quiet and tight lipped. Are you proud of what is happening in Kenya? Is this your gameplan for Kenya as a non-NATO ally? Rex Kanyike Masai was peacefully protesting last Thursday, June 20 when a trigger-happy individual shot him dead within the CBD and on the same day, Evans Kiratu was allegedly struck by a tear gas canister in his groin during the protests. Kiratu would later succumb to his injuries the following day at Kenyatta National Hospital. The death of Rex Kanyike and Evans Kiratu happened just days after a chief inspector of police killed a magistrate during active court proceedings at Makadara Law courts in Nairobi. Like Willie Kimani, the list of Kenyans killed by law enforcers keeps growing and we cannot continue to be silent. No, it cannot be a trend. Because today it is Rex and tomorrow they may come for me and the day after, you, who is watching or listening. On February 24th in 1965, Pio Gama Pinto was killed for allegedly engaging the then-president Mzee Jomo Kenyatta in a shouting match over sessional paper no. 10 which virtually legalized capitalism in Kenya. However, Pinto’s death was not the end of it all; the struggle has continued to this day. The seed of struggle that was planted by our nation’s freedom fighters continues to bear fruits to this day. Dear Mr. President, if the spirit of struggle did not die with our forefathers who were enslaved, tortured, maimed and eventually killed, what makes you think that it can end today? I have seen dismissive remarks by politicians and some government officials all over mainstream and social media about the role of Gen Z in shaping Kenya’s future. It seems a number of our leaders think that this is some kind of joke or a game that will soon end or simply fade away. Well, if that is so, then please note that we will no longer continue to be pawns in a game of chess. The wave of police brutality on peaceful protesters, abductions and killings of innocent Kenyans has pushed us to review our approach and involvement in this noble campaign for Justice for all Kenyans. We call upon all Advocates, other professional bodies and Kenyans of good will to stand up for this country. Let us stand for Peace, let Justice Be Our Shield and Defender. #JusticeBeOurShield FAITH ODHIAMBO PRESIDENT, LAW SOCIETY OF KENYA.

@Cofek_Africa This isn’t the language or the approach of a reputable professional body and will likely expose you to litigation. You could demonstrate leadership by keeping on the facts, stay on the lane of the irreproachable and the credible. Stay away from anecdotal aggression.

@javahouseafrica I ordered two runny poached eggs on toast with home fries at Java Adams Arcade. I got eggs hard & sent them back. Eggs then came in two plates. Fries were missing. Those came separate and were soggy. Sent the soggy fried back. Terrible experience. Shame!
