Here lies a friend, a teacher, a brother
He was was dropped on the street
Another mark on a sniper’s score sheet
Tarmac drenched in blameless blood
Brains scattered on the pavement
His crime was carrying the national flag.
A man joins politics in 1992, there's bloodshed.
He becomes a member of parliament in 1997, bloodshed.
He is a major player in 2007/8, bloodshed.
His party's reelection is contested in 2018, bloodshed.
He is president in 2024, blood floods the streets...
Ai!?

Was Raila on the streets with you?
Mlikula teargas pamoja?
Alioshwa na water canon?
Did he hold a placard?
Was he chanting?
Was he arrested?
Was he shot at?
Has he buried anyone in the last month?
Did he

Why is the political class obsessed with violence?
We protest peacefully, you send killer police.
We donate, support each other, you send goons to loot and burn.
We ask for accountability, you threaten massacres.
We seek unity, mnasema nchi itachomeka.
Ni nini?

My heart is in Githurai 44 and 45
In Roysambu
In Mirema
In Zimmerman
In Kamiti Road
In Thika Road
In Pipeline
In Embakasi
In Kakamega
In Kitengela
We deserve to live in dignity.
We deserve to live without fear.
We deserve to be safe in our homes.
It is our right.

Meru Elders (Njuri Ncheke) defend Interior CS Prof. Kithure Kindiki and Inspector General of Police Japhet Koome. They say, attacks on the two are politically motivated.

Teargassing hospitals.
Teargassing restaurants.
Teargassing chemists.
Teargassing schools.
Deploying poisonous gas.
The Police are a criminal outfit that doesn't respect the constitution.
They have no morals.
They have no rules.
They have no boundaries.

Instead of asking Ugandans to label their tweets to avoid confusing Kenyans, what if we help them amplify?
Support and learn from each other...

This man was last to leave the station, first to arrive, and rode a boda all the way to court room to make sure the Subaru didn't get out of sight.

The house has three bedrooms with large windows. The living area has expansive views towards Mt Kenya and Lolomarik Ranch where it is common to see Giraffe grazing in the afternoon.
WE ARE FREE!!!
A million thank yous to everyone who showed kwa streets, the station, courts, for the massive support on these digital streets.
Kwanza mawakili.
Kenyans, you're an absolutely amazing lot. So inspired by everyone pushing

How difficult is it to understand?
Christianity is unAfrican.
It DESTROYED our cultures.
If it wasn't for missionaries, we wouldn't have needed to fight for independence.
Missionaries watched and condoned all the crimes perpetuated against our people.
Terrible accident with possible fatalities at the Southern By Pass, about 1 Kms before Ole Sereni. Fierce fire engulfing 3 trucks.
@SakajaJohnson
kindly send fire brigade and an ambulance.
Why are people I was in school with having multiple kids, getting married and running for political office?
What’s wrong?
What’s going on?
Where are the adults?
Why are they letting you do this?
Don’t we have homework?
The sticker just came off an Imperial Leather soap I was using and… errm… I just wanted to ask…
Has this happened to anyone out there before?
What are the recommended procedures after here?
Listen, this is a film written, acted and produced by people to whom I would gladly concede writing, acting and production jobs…
Kama trailer haitakuconvince, drop pin. Tutamuok na kikoto ya wale wagenje tubanje tukiche ka hutacheza na rieng’…💕✨
Dedan Kimathi taught us this!
Field Marshal Mūthoni is proud!
Makhan Singh led the way!
Mūthoni Nyanjirū understands!
Pio Gama Pinto showed us!
Chelagat Mutai gets it!
Mekatilili started it!
Wangari Maathai inspired us!

In the last month, we've watched them attack mosques, shoot at medics in church premises, shoot children, teargas schools, invade towns to massacre residents, dump bodies in pits...
Is this not war against citizens?

In 2018, I called Field Marshal Mūthoni and got the sharpest, most deserved reproach.
She was clear: we'd failed her. For generations.
Then turned out to be the loveliest, mischievous Cūcū with crackling humour.
Only

could capture the complexity of that moment
I tweet to protest and shout that the arrest of

by DCI Nanyuki,his illegal unprocedural interrogation and harassment of his advocates by police officers is a testament of the rot, impunity and rogueness of the bunch of foolish goons and puppets in that station.✊🏿
We need to up the use of every other tool at our disposal. Since they're doing their best to make sure we can't be on the street safely.
Art. Space conversations. Professional skills. Research. Exposés. Political & Civic Education.
All we've been doing, amplified.

I’ve returned to this short over and over in the last three years. No idea why, but it speaks to a visceral part of my being. I know I’ll still seek it out. I’m grateful for Michael K Williams’s life, work.
Scientists have discovered a giant cloud of alcohol – 1,000 times larger than the diameter of our solar system – floating in space.
Enough to fill 400 trillion-trillion pints of beer.
Tuko salama. Kwa Subaru ya Mambaru tu waiting to know whether we'll be arraigned.
Ahsanteni sana for the massive love and support.

We are informed that Britain "stole" its wealth from Africa, even though there was nothing there when the British arrived.
If anything, the British brought trade, productivity, and wealth. Plus infrastructure: schools, hospitals, even the wheel. That's not "theft". It's a gift.
The guy who’d been accused of stealing a suitcase was acquitted quickly after the judge realized prosecution didn’t have their facts right.
It was a brief case.
This is also the time to put your privilege to use.
Protect Somali people and Muslims in general from the nonsensical harassment that this Riverside thing might cause.
Anywhere. However you can.
Report accounts. Speak up.
Mchanga has found a way to pay for medical bills directly. I’ll be posting the details here after going to each hospital with all the details I’ve received. What’s the account number for KNH and Nairobi West Hospital? Of course other hospitals too and people outside Nairobi will
