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.
