Kenyan activist Auma Obama, Barack Obama’s half-sister, speaks to CNN after being tear-gassed while showing solidarity with Kenya protesters. She explains why young Kenyans are voicing their grievances over economic policies that they say are jeopardising their future, and expresses her anger at the government’s violent crackdown.

Kenya borrowed money from the IMF. The loan was due. Kenya didn't have the money so the IMF instructed Kenya to raise taxes. It's called a debt-trap. IMF takes orders from Washington and other western nations.

Them Africans work for institutions in there own countrys in Africa. Then tax them. Make them pay high tex...

Overthrow your government. Kenyas full of natural resources. No reason for a country suffering. Minerals: Titanium, gold, limestone, soda ash, fluorspar, zinc, salt, diatomite, gypsum, gemstones, and iron ore. Wildlife: Rich biodiversity with numerous national parks and reserves. Forests: Important for timber, medicinal plants, and biodiversity. Water Resources: Lakes (Victoria, Turkana, Naivasha), rivers (Tana, Athi, Mara), and groundwater. Land: Fertile agricultural land suitable for crops like tea, coffee, and horticulture. Energy: Geothermal, hydroelectric, wind, and solar potential. Marine Resources: Coastal and marine ecosystems, including fish and other sea products.

there is the case of Kenyan Police assisting the PNH - Haitian National Police with the anarchistic gangs in that country, (Haiti). The Haitian gangs have been armed with combat class weapons originating from offshore sources including the USA. Haiti's social profile is one of despair and neglect by the State since Duvalier. Haiti is not poor, but has been terribly and corruptly managed since it's inception as a Nation 1804. France, USA, Canada, the UK, have and are involved with creation of the national malaise. Haitians themselves have not vigorously defended their Constitution, and justice backed up with accountable Law Enforcement. Et voilà! Haïti 2024! The gangs are not right in their methods, however they are not wrong by motivation. Haiti is "not Right" either. The Kenyan Troops/Police will earn and bring home millions truly aiding their families and Kenya's economy indirectly as a benefit caused by Haitian gangs.
