On Tuesday of this week, Kenya came to a total halt as a considerable number of protesters demonstrated against the government's planned finance law 2024 in the streets. Many deaths, many injuries, and many damaged homes are the result of this demonstration.

As a result of President Ruto's rejection and failure to sign the bill into law, his government decided to capitulate and withdraw the entire package. The decision relieved a great deal of the enormous pressure that was felt across the country.
However, they are organising another demonstration with the goal of taking over parliament on Thursday. This message was published by activist Boniface Mwangi, who has been leading this countrywide march. The screenshots of it that are displayed below were released by him on his official Facebook page:
According to the previously cited news, Boniface Mwangi told protestors that they would be taking over parliament to express their demands and liberate our country from the tyranny of a few. Citing the need for a president to lead the country and the fact that an invasion would violate the constitution's protection of the state house, he declared that they would not take over the state house as planned.

He claims that the goal of today's protest is to honour those who died while pursuing their constitutionally guaranteed right to take their complaints to the administration to court. Given this, we anticipate that the security agencies would protect the lives of Kenyan citizens in accordance with the constitution rather than using excessive force, as they did on Tuesday.
