In the wake of widespread protests against a controversial finance bill in Kenya, the question on many minds is whether real change is possible in the country. The bill, which has sparked nationwide demonstrations, has brought to light the deep-seated frustrations and challenges faced by Kenyan citizens.
The protests have evolved into a larger movement, with people from all walks of life coming together to challenge the government and demand accountability. The bill, which imposes new taxes on a range of goods and services, has been met with outrage as it threatens to increase the cost of living for many Kenyans already struggling to make ends meet.
This wave of protests is not the first time that Kenya has experienced widespread discontent and anger towards the government. Corruption, political infighting, and economic challenges have long plagued the country, leading many to question whether real change is possible.
However, the current protests have shown a new level of unity and determination among Kenyan citizens, raising hopes that real change may be within reach. The government’s response to the protests will be crucial in determining the course of the movement and whether genuine reforms can be achieved.
As Kenya stands on the edge of a potential turning point, the question of whether real change is possible remains unanswered. But one thing is clear: the people of Kenya are determined to fight for a brighter future, and the world is watching to see how their actions will shape the country’s destiny.

These jig-a-boo laden countries in Africa can never get their sheep together, gee I wonder why …
If the Gen Z cannot take this man out with his corrupt cabinet, we pray the God takes him. He is drugging this country into deep mud.
Riots are no solution to our problems thats why few turn out to protest.
What do they know about Kenya,
Můj názor:
Pro firmy a podnikatele atd. Dejte zisk 40 000 eur ročně bez daně!
Nat 40 000 eur 25% daň.
25% investice je lepší než daň:
Na svůj účet mohu převést zvýšení platu, zelenou investici, větrnou elektrárnu atd.
Hlavně banky 25% daň. A zrušení odečtení daní na oleji, naftě, pozemních a spalovacích motorech.
Are we talking about Kenya or Nigeria? .. cos everything sounds the same, like there's a pattern.
Presenter: "IMF"
Aly-Khan: "Never heard of it… what does it do?"
He will go eventually.
Beyond corrupt
The president is his own advisor…the cabinet made of ksh 10,000,000,000 or USD 75,000,000 net worth.
The unconstitutional office like the First lady who nobody elected is getting more funds that qualified intern doctors.
The youth are unemployed, they are living below a $1.50 per day.
The corrupt leaders are still living in public opulence.
The 😂 airpot is being given to an indian rotten reputation Adani, i dont know how they knew w e needed their help😂.
Change is inevitable.
Ruto may rule for now, but he is the most hated man in kenya.😂
Ruto must go
1. No protester was killed when the army was Deployed, Report accurately.
2. Your panellist are not knowledgeable about the current situation, How can the answer be in the question? They are reporting “I think “ please know the facts to a granular level.
This is not the time for shuffling,Ruto should go.
Sorry to my Kenya brothers, while I can agree about accountability, Ruto is not going anywhere but you can now exercise your rights by voting in the next election.
Army was deployed and thousands of people were killed???😮😮 Which is that Kenya you're talking about.
Most African politicians hide behind DEMOCRACY and loot the country after making various promises to gain power.
Is change possible?
NO !!!
How can you end corruption with the THIEFS-IN-CHARGE !!!!😂
As long as Africa has weak institutions, protests will continue to take place because the new generation is educated and demands accountability.
Let him be under pressure…did we tell him to put politicians in the cabinet???
Lie it only in Nairobi and gidurai
Just lie it only Nairobi people are protesting
How do you get so many dollar billionaires in a third world country and those billionaires are not industrialists, have not invented any technology, and virtually all of them have worked in government or have friends in government. Thieves of IMF loans.
Zakayo Mbwa! Must go
The most USELESS comedian president in Africa: William Ruto!
Thousands killed? This absolutely lost me.
RUTO must go
No not ever.
Sooner or later, civil disobedience armed groups will be firmed to force this lunatic despotic illegitimate abd autocratic regime out.
We will never see change. The rich keep getting richer and the poor are getting worse. We are doomed as a generation and country as a whole!!!!!!
Garbage in garbage out!….. outcome=zero!
i agree this was just a short term solution to appease politicians kenyans were not asking for a union but for accountability just a matter of time before scandals start coming up and igniting the anger again
