A video has gone viral showing hired troublemakers blaming politicians for not keeping their promises. These troublemakers were hired to disrupt a peaceful protest by Gen Z. The video, shared by a Kenyan blogger on the X account, shows the goons threatening to expose well-known politicians if they do not get paid as agreed.
This issue came up just one day after leaders from the Azimio La Umoja coalition accused the government of hiring goons to interfere with protests. The timing of these events has made the public even more critical of the political situation in Kenya.
Kenyans have reacted strongly to the video. Many on social media are angry and frustrated, calling for the goons to reveal the names of the politicians who hired them. This incident has shown the increasing worry about political manipulation and unethical practices used to silence dissent and peaceful protests.
Here are some reactions from Kenyans on social media. It is clear that Kenyans are now more aware and will not allow themselves to be deceived.
This incident has shocked the government and exposed the corruption in the political arena. It has put a lot of pressure on politicians, with some even trying to escape the situation. The actions of Gen Z have left these politicians exposed.
