Press Release - We are here, first and foremost, to confirm that the peaceful protests planned for Wednesday, Thursday, and Friday this week are on as earlier declared by our leadership.

Azimio TVWe are here, first and foremost, to confirm that the peaceful protests planned for Wednesday, Thursday, and Friday this week are on as earlier declared by our leadership.

Kenya Kwanza claimed that protesters are being paid. For anyone to claim that those protesters who came out in hundreds and thousands in places like Emali, Busia, Kitale, Kisii, Kilifi, Kakamega, Machakos, and Nairobi, among other places, were paid is to be extremely insincere and to live in deep denial. And that should worry Kenyans. A regime in denial and deep slumber is a very dangerous regime, and Kenya Kwanza is one such regime.

Kenya Kwanza is accusing Azimio of failing to provide solutions to the rising cost of living. We know no country where a party stays in government but wants the one out of government to provide solutions to the problems of the people. If Kenya Kwanza's solutions are not working for the people, Kenya Kwanza needs to get out of power. Disband and Quit.

Kenya Kwanza is telling us that the government has hired 55,000 teachers. So what? It is not a favor. They are supposed to hire teachers. But they are missing the point. People eat food, and people want food. Even the teachers are crying about the cost of food, high taxes, and low salaries. Hiring teachers doesn't reduce the cost of living.

Kenya Kwanza is talking about generalities like the Hustler Fund and the plan to roll out the next phase. Kenya has never had a shortage of funds like Youth Fund, Women Fund, etc. But people don't eat funds. People eat food. People don't eat in phases. People eat today and every day. Don't tell Kenyans about the Hustler Fund at its next phase. Tell Kenyans how food will be affordable now, today.
