Wednesday, June 26, 2024 – President William Ruto is no longer taking the Gen Zs lightly after yesterday's deadly protests where they seized Parliament while demonstrating against the punitive Finance Bill
This is after he deployed KDF around the
country to deal ruthlessly with the angry Gen Zs and crash their revolution.
The KDF deployment has hurriedly been ratified
by the National Assembly after Defence Cabinet Secretary Aden Duale gazetted
the move, allowing the military to support the National Police Service (NPS) in
restoring normalcy in the country.
According to Rarieda MP Otiende Amollo, the
ratification was concluded in a record 30 minutes with no media or most MPs in
the House.
"And, without media, without most
members, without proper debate, in a record 30mins, the national assembly has just
made Kenya a military state; authorizing the deployment of KDF without indicating
where, why, or for what period, and did so retrospectively contra a 241(3)(c).
God bless us," he stated.
Shortly after the deployment, however, Kenyans
accused the state of illegally deploying the military to handle unarmed
protesters leading to the alleged Githurai 45 massacre.
Expressing their opinions, Kenyans claimed
that KDF officers should only be deployed under two scenarios, when there is a
situation of emergency or disaster, or to restore peace in any part of Kenya
affected by unrest or instability.
During his address yesterday, Ruto termed the
Gen Zs as criminals and vowed to deal with them firmly.
