The Nane-Nane Protest
On August 8th, in Nairobi, Kenyans took to the streets to express their deep-seated frustrations with the current regime. What started as a peaceful demonstration quickly escalated into a series of tense confrontations between protestors and law enforcement. Citizens, driven by a collective demand for change and accountability, engaged in running battles with police, reflecting widespread discontent with governance.
The situation deteriorated as clashes ensued, leading to a heavy police response aimed at dispersing the crowds. In total, 174 individuals were arrested, and many others sustained injuries as the confrontations unfolded across various locations in the city.
