Everyday, it feels like, I am meeting friends and relatives who knew Baba and Mami way before I was born, or as I grew up. So I am learning new things about the that I did not know - and for that I am grateful. Here I am visiting Mami and Limuru.

This Genxer stands with Gen Z. The Kenyan government cannot make life impossible for Kenyans, oppress, abduct and extra-judicially kill those who protest and expect passive acceptance. Our times call for young, new and revolutionary leadership! bbc.com/news/live/c1jd…

We tried to make it to the Saba Saba demonstrations but Nairobi is locked down by armed police. The Ruto regime, instead of engaging with Kenyans shuts down the whole country. This is a regime scared of its own citizens. This is not governance, this is a dictatorship!

A friend of mine said we are already in the 3rd world war. Only in this case it’s a 3rd world war between the elite 1% and their satellite governments against the rest of us. In the US, Kenya, the Congo and Palestine etc, it does feel like the lines have already been drawn.

We know who is not a terrorist—The People’s Watchman and all Kenyans who have been demanding good governance. And we know who the real terrorist is—a regime that targets, persecutes, and kills its own people simply for exercising their constitutional right to protest.

Yesterday's arrest of The People’s Watchman is sickening. It shows a Kenyan dictatorial regime that never had any political imagination. Arrests, abductions and killings are the norm. Why? William Samoei Ruto, PhD adheres to Termite philosophy – eat everything until your stomach/country explodes!
