Kenya Prepares for Gen Z Protests as Grievances Persist Two Years On
Kenya is bracing for a renewed wave of Gen Z protests two years after tax-driven demonstrations that left dozens dead and exposed deep economic inequality and concerns about police accountability. The government has warned against demonstrations and deployed security forces while cautions over public order continue. A compensation fund for victims of past protests has been announced, but justice for those killed or disappeared remains elusive. As anniversary gatherings and vigils unfold in Nairobi and other towns, opposition leaders urge solidarity and continued pressure on the government to address longstanding grievances.
