Nairobi — In the midst of the ongoing anti-government protests in Kenya , Dadaab Member of Parliament Farah Maalim has strongly denied making any incendiary comments against the country's Gen-Z movement, which has been at the forefront of the demonstrations.
However, in a recent interview with a local TV station, Maalim vehemently denied the claims, stating that the video was manipulated to paint him in a negative light. The MP explained that the video was taken during a recent book launch event he attended in Somalia, and that his comments were not directed at the Kenyan protesters, but rather a general statement about the consequences of violent revolutions.
The controversial video has sparked widespread public outrage among Kenyans, who have called for Maalim's arrest and prosecution over the sentiments they believe threaten to further exacerbate the already tense situation in the country.
