You don't get it.
The protest movement has mutated from large crowds in one place to small units of attack in different locations.There were protests in Mombasa Nairobi Kitengela Nakuru Kakamega Emali Makueni Kisii Nyamira Githurai Karatina.Major highways were closed and gangs are slowly taking over.If you doubt this please talk to your guys at the National Intelligence service or just search on youtube.
No serious economic activity was going on in most parts of the country which means lost business, loss of tax revenue for the government,extra judicial killings and the rise of gangs and international pressure which may culminate to anarchy.
The security forces,debt financiers and the business community are slowly getting exhausted in dealing with these protests.You can imagine a police who is loosing alot of traffic bribes in the name of dealing with protestors or a business owner who has to close his business while having an outstanding loan to pay to a bank which wants to make profit.
All these groups are putting alot of pressure on Ruto and the problem we are dealing with is that the GENzs want new elections unlike in 2008 or 2017 when Raila wanted nusu mkate which may lead to the dissolution of parliament or the president may even resign because these GENzs seems unable to contain.
But above all,Kenya is greater than all of us and peace love and unity is our founding principle as a nation.
It was the same during Kibaki, and Uhuru. During Moi it was almost every other month, but the Govt survived it all. In few months, if not weeks, folks will get weary and they will get even more isolated in silos. 40 of 47 counties, it was crickets when it was suppose to be the mother of all protest ever seen in East and Central Africa among boffoons on Youtube Yesterday. Even miguna and some silly folks were predicting 1PM 7/16/2024 to be the new dawn in Kenya. Anarchy folks have not figured out what is next when a democratically elected President is removed. There may not be elections in Kenya for 50 years if such was to happen. It will be pain for decades!
I am not defending or against Ruto but let us remember that Ruto has many enemies within government starting with Gachagua. Over the last two years, He aligned himself with the americans/NATo against Russians and Terrorist axis which has a high presence in East Africa,He then involved himself in DRC & Sudan crisis.He then went on to oust former Uhuru allies in all government positions from security to public works which means lost business for them. On the other hand you have the likes of Raila Kalonzo Joho who are pretending to fight for the youth but their key focus is to join government and enjoy luxuries(read Mombasa Kakamega Kisii Makueni protests). The PAWN in this dangerous game is GENz who are fighting a genuine war but there are people who want to take advantage of this moment to get political power.The more the protests continue, the bad things get for Ruto because he will run out of tax revenue and be unable to raise debt from local or international markets while the police/military will get exhausted of dealing with the protestors or killing them. Remember that Ruto has already lost his political power through the dissolution of cabinet and delegitimizations of parliament which has left him alone and exposed.These groups will only attain political power through these protests and we may have a situation of the president resigning or parliament getting dissolved and a new parliament impeaching the president.
While the protests continues Royal Media,Uhuru Kameme,Moi standard and the paid social media/tiktok group are labelling Ruto an evil man while his enemies are sabotaging government through exposure of confidential information over the last few weeks.
We are having a situation of a president who can barely move out of the country or outside state lodges over the last month, Ruto's powerful enemies are hiding behind GENz.I pity him but politics is a cold world of thugs.
