THE RISE OF ''GEN Z'' REVOLUTION.


In 2022, my area MP came to campaign in our village, the only thing I remember about that day was what he told the youths.

"Young men and women, don't bank on us to change your systems. We found the country when there was a rule that prohibited any other party aside from KANU, we fought and now all the citizens can enjoy the fruits of our revolution. You can even decide to form your political parties.

Now, we are banking on you guys to fight tribalism, corruption and impunity, as the old men and women are banking on you"

I never knew that the day would come. This week has taught us that Kenya is moving to a place where tribal politics will no longer have a place.
Yong people stormed the social media and rallied each other to come out in large numbers in operation #occupystatehouse.

We all thought it was a bluff only for us to get proven wrong.
They came out in large numbers, and this time round armed with very dangerous modern and digital weapons; cell phones or smartphones.
This made it hard for the police officers to use brute force since everything was being recorded.

Their way of protest is different from whatever we are used to.
They accompany protests with funny placards such as "Batman shuka" and memes that made our day colourful.

They are also daring to the extent of asking for flavoured water canons and even threatening the MPs by sharing their phone numbers on social media.
I saw one young man riding on a police horse while others were imitating the Biblical story of Jesus and Zacchaeus.

They even went ahead and asked "Baba" to stay home and let them do the work.

The protests were carried out throughout the country and even attracted the attention of the international community.

Like I said, they are here to stay.
Letter ''Z'' is the last letter of the alphabet and the Gen Zs are here to put an end to the social and economic injustices suffered by the past generations.

The next thing we need to exercise is the power to recall the non-performing members, to show them we can still pull them down.
Let's wait and see how they will deal with those who voted ''YES'' for the bill.

BABU IS MAKING A BIG MISTAKE. Over the past one week, President Ruto has been traversing through the Nyanza region 'launching projects' and also attending the homecoming ceremonies of the ODM Cabinet Secretaries from the region. He has enjoyed massive suppport from the hostile ground and he even could not believe when he saw how the KDF or rather Kondele Defence Force welcomed him in the famous Kondele Roundabout. This shows how the game of politics is . There are no permanent enemies but rather differences of personal interests. Now , there was one character that boycotted the rallies enirely. Hon. Babu Owino decided to stay in Nairobi and support the ever changing Kalonzo Musyoka. In my opinion, Babu miscalculated .   It would have been GOOD for Babu Owino if he attended the homecoming ceremonies of the Luo Mps in Nyanza. Why ? Charity begins at home. He must consolidate home first before he tries to consolidate the nation. He should at least pretend to be with Baba until th...

  RAILA HAS DESTROYED GACHAGUA. Why is it that when Baba Raila Odinga 'visits' any government, it is the deputy presidents that suffer the most? Does Raila replace them? Does he take away their positions and importance? Or do presidents feel secure with Raila by their side, hence feel no need for their deputies? Or are the deputies using the same old tactic of playing the victim to win sympathy from Kenyans? Which is which? Because Rigathi Gachagua is now claiming that he has been through worse than the then deputy president William Ruto, who is now his boss? What does Raila do to these regimes ? Watching the interview where the Dp lamented that he is being mistreated by Ruto's close allies, I really felt bad for him. H e further emphasized that his woes started when Raila entered the government. So what is that thing that Raila does to deputy presidents ? Raila is unique, He comes into government with a battalion of Mps, Meaning any alliance with him the president i...

  What really happened in Endarasha ? Over the last one week Kenya has been through some things that look like Hollywood. The Adani story, the blackout occurrence and then the Endarasha Hillside incident. Today I wanna talk about the Endarasha story. This thing should not be taken lightly as there is more than meets the eye. Now picture this, kids are asleep , and I mean all of them went to bed according to the management.  Fire breaks out in the dormitories and the kids start screaming but no one heard them. Emergency door was allegedly locked from outside hence hindering the escape plan. Remember that this school has watchmen on duty and there's administration at the scene. The first people to arrive at the scene are the politicians. Now ,I think that this is a conspiracy to cover for more damages. Sixteen kids died at the scene while six died later from the burns . The school failed to locate several kids and even goes ahead and stops parents from taking their kids back hom...
