“Fellow Kenyans,
We will not watch as the blood of our children is treated as a footnote. June 25th remains a public holiday of remembrance and resistance.More than 50 brave young Kenyans, our unsung heroes like Rex Maasai from Siaya, Herbert Ojwang’, and Erickson who was gunned down outside Parliament lost their lives fighting for economic justice. We must come out in large numbers to commemorate them.
Our position remains firm: President Ruto must not sign the punitive Finance Bill into law. I salute the brave Linda Mwananchi Movement MPs who boldly voted NO, and the many legislators who intentionally boycotted parliament in protest. The executive must listen to the sovereign voice of the people.
I also condemn the state sponsored goons unleashing terror on peaceful citizens, even inside holy sanctuaries like All Saints Cathedral. Following the sickening “Shoot to Kill” pronouncement by an MP from Homa Bay, I challenge both the Minister of Interior and President William Ruto to break their silence and come clean on this state sanctioned violence.
To those who cannot join the march, stand in solid solidarity by staying at home and following the proceedings. Let the silence of our empty streets be a roaring testament against tyranny. We will not forget, and we will not back down. See you on June 25th,”said Orengo,”Siaya Governor James Orengo.
