View descriptionShare

Over the past week, we have witnessed a march organized on social media and led largely by Gen-Z Kenyans who have live-streamed the demonstrations against the government's fiscal policies, which many Kenyans believe disproportionately burden the lower and middle classes while failing to address systemic economic issues.

We spoke to a protester and Ashtone Osore, the political analyst.
