Week transpiring? 18 00:02:30,560 --> 00:02:36,000 Oh, man, I mean again, doing the best I can with the 19 00:02:36,000 --> 00:02:39,800 circumstances, but I've been I've been I've been OK. 20 00:02:39,800 --> 00:02:41,600 Right now I'm currently I'm under the weather. 21 00:02:42,080 --> 00:02:46,200 I am under the weather and it's not it's not very, very kind 22 00:02:46,200 --> 00:02:48,920 weather. It is it's a bit cloudy. 23 00:02:50,840 --> 00:02:55,920 I over age caught up to me. I overexerted myself physically. 24 00:02:56,360 --> 00:03:01,040 I was running and and and my body just. 25 00:03:01,280 --> 00:03:07,960 Why are you running? Because I'm paranoid I would get 26 00:03:07,960 --> 00:03:09,640 into the whole thing because it's actually, I feel like, I 27 00:03:09,640 --> 00:03:11,040 feel like, I feel like, what do you call it? 28 00:03:11,040 --> 00:03:12,360 I feel like a Sissy when I say it. 29 00:03:12,360 --> 00:03:15,960 But anyways, I was, I, I live, I live on on, on. 30 00:03:16,000 --> 00:03:17,840 I'm going to give away my location, but I live in an 31 00:03:17,840 --> 00:03:22,480 elevated area. And so I decided that for 32 00:03:22,480 --> 00:03:25,720 whatever reason that I was going to run up the hill and non-stop. 33 00:03:25,720 --> 00:03:28,640 And I haven't done like very, very rigorous exercises in a 34 00:03:28,640 --> 00:03:30,560 long time, apart from like a gym here and there. 35 00:03:31,760 --> 00:03:35,080 So my body was letting me know that we can't go on that way. 36 00:03:35,480 --> 00:03:38,480 We can't continue living. It was, it was two days ago. 37 00:03:40,200 --> 00:03:41,960 It was a mess, bro. That was a mess. 38 00:03:42,200 --> 00:03:45,160 So I woke up today and my body is just, I'm just so I'm 39 00:03:45,160 --> 00:03:49,920 recovering though it's, I guess as you grow older, you can't do 40 00:03:49,920 --> 00:03:54,840 the things that you used to do, like run, like run up hills just 41 00:03:54,840 --> 00:03:57,120 off the whim. And you can't, you have to, you 42 00:03:57,280 --> 00:03:59,080 have to prepare for it. But apart from that, I'm all 43 00:03:59,080 --> 00:04:03,080 right, I mean, we'll get into it, but in terms of just like 44 00:04:03,080 --> 00:04:06,720 what's been going on, it's been again, just continued like just 45 00:04:07,240 --> 00:04:11,520 sadness, so sad that I did that. Maybe this was not exactly the 46 00:04:11,520 --> 00:04:16,440 best thing to do, but I, I, I've, I've taken a break of XI 47 00:04:16,440 --> 00:04:18,440 might get back into it this coming week. 48 00:04:18,440 --> 00:04:23,720 But then since maybe it was the end of last week, I think I just 49 00:04:23,720 --> 00:04:28,360 decided, you know what, I I will be staying off this platform 50 00:04:28,360 --> 00:04:31,480 because there's so much negative information. 51 00:04:31,840 --> 00:04:33,800 Not negative information, there's just so much going on 52 00:04:34,400 --> 00:04:36,960 that's affecting. And I realise I have a very soft 53 00:04:36,960 --> 00:04:38,880 heart. I'm not ashamed to say it. 54 00:04:38,920 --> 00:04:42,360 And I just couldn't stand to see people get shot and killed on 55 00:04:42,360 --> 00:04:46,400 what do you call it on, on my phone like that and just 56 00:04:46,400 --> 00:04:49,600 continue with my day. So yeah, of course that has come 57 00:04:49,600 --> 00:04:53,320 with these drawbacks, but luckily the information is being 58 00:04:53,320 --> 00:04:56,720 passed still. So yeah, I don't know what else 59 00:04:56,720 --> 00:04:59,120 to say. I'm hopeful, though. 60 00:04:59,720 --> 00:05:00,680 I'm hopeful. How are you doing? 61 00:05:01,520 --> 00:05:04,800 How has your week been? How's your health, bro? 62 00:05:05,400 --> 00:05:08,640 This this this week. This week has been, it's been 63 00:05:08,640 --> 00:05:12,360 difficult to even get any work done because like all all my 64 00:05:12,360 --> 00:05:15,120 attention has been on the current protests. 65 00:05:15,880 --> 00:05:19,880 Not gonna lie man, it's just it's hard to do anything. 66 00:05:19,880 --> 00:05:25,160 It's hard to, I know I said I was creative last week, but this 67 00:05:25,160 --> 00:05:31,880 week was just different, man. I was just very in invested and 68 00:05:31,880 --> 00:05:36,800 just mentally, emotionally just drained from this whole 69 00:05:36,800 --> 00:05:38,320 situation, man. Yeah. 70 00:05:39,200 --> 00:05:44,080 So it's just been, it's just been difficult to just even just 71 00:05:44,080 --> 00:05:49,040 do anything, man. Like, yeah, so. 72 00:05:51,040 --> 00:05:52,560 So yeah. My week. 73 00:05:53,000 --> 00:05:54,560 Yeah, it does. It does. 74 00:05:54,560 --> 00:05:57,640 It does take a toll. Yeah. 75 00:05:59,160 --> 00:06:02,760 But yeah, my my week. So I, I mean, I decided to make 76 00:06:02,840 --> 00:06:06,920 a TikTok video just, I'd kind of like just expressing. 77 00:06:07,040 --> 00:06:12,400 This was on Wednesday after after our well after William 78 00:06:12,400 --> 00:06:16,600 Ruto decided to kind of address the country. 79 00:06:16,840 --> 00:06:19,720 Well, he adjusted the he adjust the country twice on Tuesday 80 00:06:19,720 --> 00:06:24,920 evening and on Wednesday. And yeah, I mean, it was kind of 81 00:06:24,920 --> 00:06:31,560 like I was incensed at the because he kind of just made-up 82 00:06:31,560 --> 00:06:35,600 a bunch of stuff, omitted a bunch of a bunch of information. 83 00:06:35,600 --> 00:06:39,480 So I made a TikTok video and I'm glad that I did, although 84 00:06:39,480 --> 00:06:42,960 obviously I've gotten a lot of texts and stuff and concerns 85 00:06:42,960 --> 00:06:45,840 because obviously, you know, like my language was very 86 00:06:45,840 --> 00:06:49,400 abrasive towards him. So a lot of people like, like, 87 00:06:49,440 --> 00:06:54,000 brah, you know, remember the Moi regime, remember, like, you 88 00:06:54,000 --> 00:06:55,680 know, these guys are dangerous people. 89 00:06:55,680 --> 00:07:00,920 ETCTC But yo, listen, at the end of the day, we have to we have 90 00:07:00,920 --> 00:07:04,400 to say something man and for those of us who can't be there 91 00:07:04,400 --> 00:07:09,480 physically man, digital activism is a thing in today's day and 92 00:07:09,480 --> 00:07:12,560 age. And therefore, you know, if if I 93 00:07:12,560 --> 00:07:17,960 can't be on the ground, at least like I can help use my platforms 94 00:07:17,960 --> 00:07:22,600 for for good. So anyway, yeah, I did that 95 00:07:22,600 --> 00:07:30,600 happened Wednesday and yeah, I, I tried so like you, I tried to, 96 00:07:30,600 --> 00:07:34,480 I didn't get off X, but I tried to like just try and do like 97 00:07:34,480 --> 00:07:37,520 normal things. So I, I tried to start a new 98 00:07:37,520 --> 00:07:41,520 series. I was actually in in I was very, 99 00:07:41,800 --> 00:07:46,800 there's this new series on Apple TV, but it's called like dark 100 00:07:46,800 --> 00:07:49,680 matter and I've actually been watching it. 101 00:07:49,680 --> 00:07:54,240 It's it's very interesting. It's like a sci-fi thriller 102 00:07:54,240 --> 00:07:56,400 thing. So I've I've tried to get 103 00:07:56,400 --> 00:07:59,280 invested in that just. To get my head your brain away 104 00:07:59,320 --> 00:08:03,160 occupied from. Yeah, I keep my brain occupied 105 00:08:03,600 --> 00:08:06,240 and away from all the things that are happening. 106 00:08:07,960 --> 00:08:10,000 Yeah. And then I finally, I made one 107 00:08:10,000 --> 00:08:12,440 beat. I made just a singular beat. 108 00:08:12,440 --> 00:08:15,280 Hey, shout out to that one beat for coming out man like. 109 00:08:15,880 --> 00:08:17,920 Oh yeah, yeah.

Yeah, that's still so I'm, well, 112 00:08:26,360 --> 00:08:30,840 I don't know if I'll say that here, but like it's it's it's 113 00:08:30,840 --> 00:08:33,559 like dancy dance vibes, dance vibes. 114 00:08:35,400 --> 00:08:39,840 So yeah, I also tried listening to a bunch of music just because 115 00:08:39,880 --> 00:08:41,400 I brought the beginning of the week. 116 00:08:41,400 --> 00:08:44,039 I was doing none of that, man. I feel like beginning of the 117 00:08:44,039 --> 00:08:46,400 week was just information information. 118 00:08:46,400 --> 00:08:47,640 It was. It was. 119 00:08:47,640 --> 00:08:52,280 Being on, being on, being on, on X, being in the spaces. 120 00:08:52,440 --> 00:08:55,080 Just like you know, every single there was a. 121 00:08:55,080 --> 00:08:59,560 Lot of info coming in. A lot, a lot of information and 122 00:08:59,560 --> 00:09:02,880 it's yeah. So towards the end of my week, 123 00:09:02,880 --> 00:09:05,880 like Friday, Saturday, I was trying to listen to new music. 124 00:09:06,280 --> 00:09:08,200 I'm trying to watch this new series. 125 00:09:08,720 --> 00:09:12,080 Just trying to like whatever.

And then of course, it led to 179 00:11:58,840 --> 00:12:03,400 people ended, ended up actually occupying Parliament, which is 180 00:12:03,400 --> 00:12:07,320 really, I'm not going to lie, it was really interesting, But I 181 00:12:07,320 --> 00:12:10,400 was also a little bit, I was a bit worried when that happened, 182 00:12:10,560 --> 00:12:12,800 like when people say no, they've gotten into parliament. 183 00:12:12,800 --> 00:12:15,560 I was like, oh, snap, how how enough did that happen? 184 00:12:17,360 --> 00:12:20,240 But you know, I guess it's a revolution. 185 00:12:20,240 --> 00:12:22,800 So, so guys were they're going to get there anyway. 186 00:12:23,640 --> 00:12:24,760 But yeah, so that was interesting. 187 00:12:24,760 --> 00:12:27,080 I don't know what you if you picked up, Did you pick up 188 00:12:27,080 --> 00:12:29,200 anything? Yeah, I picked up that the 189 00:12:29,320 --> 00:12:32,640 government is willing to kill its own civilians to. 190 00:12:32,720 --> 00:12:35,800 Oh man, just you know. Protect their agendas, man. 191 00:12:36,720 --> 00:12:40,040 If you saw all those bodies that were strewn outside parliament 192 00:12:40,040 --> 00:12:43,920 on the road and everything, I mean, they were using a sniper. 193 00:12:44,360 --> 00:12:46,880 Like, bro, these are things you only see in movies and stuff 194 00:12:46,880 --> 00:12:49,360 like that, man. People's brains were like on the 195 00:12:49,360 --> 00:12:51,360 pavement and everything. It was insane. 196 00:12:51,640 --> 00:12:54,440 Honestly, I've never seen something like that happen in in 197 00:12:54,440 --> 00:12:55,880 in this country. Kenyan history. 198 00:12:57,400 --> 00:12:59,000 Yeah, man, at. Least at least televised. 199 00:12:59,000 --> 00:13:02,720 On TV, televised on Tuesday. Yeah, televised on TV and and on 200 00:13:02,720 --> 00:13:05,880 social media just like in front of us to see like that that was, 201 00:13:06,120 --> 00:13:08,080 I mean, come on, man, for sure. I don't know. 202 00:13:09,000 --> 00:13:16,280 Yeah, so my take away was like, I'm those people who breached 203 00:13:16,280 --> 00:13:20,880 parliament and, you know, at the forefront, like those people are 204 00:13:20,880 --> 00:13:25,480 very, very brave Kenyans and they deserve so many plaudits, 205 00:13:25,480 --> 00:13:30,400 man. Yeah, like I, I wholeheartedly 206 00:13:30,400 --> 00:13:35,680 respect what they what they did. Obviously they did succeed in 207 00:13:35,680 --> 00:13:37,960 breaching Parliament. There was the funny picture of 208 00:13:37,960 --> 00:13:42,040 the one guy who was eating the the all the guys who are eating 209 00:13:42,040 --> 00:13:44,240 the rice. I love food, I love, I love 210 00:13:44,280 --> 00:13:46,200 Kenyans man. Kenyans always find a way to 211 00:13:46,200 --> 00:13:47,280 joke. No Kenyans. 212 00:13:47,960 --> 00:13:50,080 Are hilarious man. Because now you just. 213 00:13:50,080 --> 00:13:53,360 Spice it next time, like. Yeah, but they were like, OK, 214 00:13:53,360 --> 00:13:55,840 let's now compare on Thursday because you know, Thursday at 215 00:13:56,040 --> 00:13:58,600 that time everyone was saying it's Occupy status. 216 00:13:58,600 --> 00:14:00,720 Let's compare what? Like, oh, let's compare the 217 00:14:00,720 --> 00:14:02,720 chefs. Let's let's see which chef is 218 00:14:02,720 --> 00:14:05,600 better, the one for Parliament or for State House. 219 00:14:06,440 --> 00:14:10,840 And then they obviously got in, stole the Mace or took the Mace. 220 00:14:11,200 --> 00:14:15,760 I should say I was. I wasn't very, I wasn't very hip 221 00:14:15,760 --> 00:14:18,680 to that whole Mace thing. I was like, OK, he just, he got 222 00:14:18,680 --> 00:14:20,080 a thing like, why is it so important? 223 00:14:20,120 --> 00:14:22,760 Until I went to look at it and I was like, oh snap, this gets 224 00:14:22,960 --> 00:14:26,440 this gets a bold, this gets a very bold. 225 00:14:27,320 --> 00:14:29,560 And then the other guy who's what did you do? 226 00:14:29,640 --> 00:14:32,480 He went to go where the, the coat of was it the speaker or 227 00:14:32,480 --> 00:14:33,800 something? And he was saying that I'm the 228 00:14:33,840 --> 00:14:36,120 speaker now. It's so funny, man, It's I love, 229 00:14:36,160 --> 00:14:38,400 I love that the fact that people were able to joke through that. 230 00:14:39,440 --> 00:14:42,920 But of course, that was inside the, the, the Parliament. 231 00:14:43,040 --> 00:14:47,200 They, I mean, Nairobi city was a town rather was a mess because 232 00:14:47,200 --> 00:14:52,080 they, the, the governor's office was the governor's office, 233 00:14:52,080 --> 00:14:53,480 psychiatrist's office was on fire. 234 00:14:54,080 --> 00:14:58,120 They, they, I think that some portion of Parliament was also, 235 00:14:58,120 --> 00:15:00,280 well, that was the report that some portion of Parliament was 236 00:15:00,280 --> 00:15:05,400 also burning. They obviously destroyed a lot 237 00:15:05,400 --> 00:15:12,160 of stuff inside Parliament and, and a couple of, and later on, 238 00:15:12,440 --> 00:15:14,520 later on in the day, I think there was some looting that 239 00:15:14,520 --> 00:15:18,960 happened around town and some shops were destroyed, things 240 00:15:18,960 --> 00:15:20,920 stolen from supermarkets and whatnot. 241 00:15:21,960 --> 00:15:27,520 So I guess that aspect of it was not, it's not the best news 242 00:15:27,520 --> 00:15:31,640 because these are businesses that thrive on, on, you know, 243 00:15:32,680 --> 00:15:34,800 exchanging goods for money. But then when goods are just 244 00:15:34,800 --> 00:15:36,160 taken, you know, they, they got a loss. 245 00:15:36,160 --> 00:15:39,480 So that part wasn't well, wasn't wasn't really like good news to 246 00:15:39,480 --> 00:15:42,600 hear. But I do understand that usually 247 00:15:42,600 --> 00:15:45,560 if there's unrest somewhere that's in many revolutions, 248 00:15:45,560 --> 00:15:48,360 that's what that's the kind of thing that happened, that 249 00:15:48,360 --> 00:15:49,440 happened. Sorry so. 250 00:15:50,400 --> 00:15:54,920 Yeah, so the looting and stuff was definitely unfortunate, but 251 00:15:54,920 --> 00:15:57,360 I think what's even more unfortunate, and it's kind of 252 00:15:57,360 --> 00:16:01,840 like being revealed as time goes along, is the whole thing that 253 00:16:01,840 --> 00:16:05,840 happened in Gidurai. Because bro, I was so curious as 254 00:16:05,840 --> 00:16:10,840 to like why they just deployed people to like barrage Gidurai 255 00:16:10,840 --> 00:16:14,360 like in the evening. And people are saying that the 256 00:16:14,360 --> 00:16:19,160 speculation is they were in they were hunting for the mess that 257 00:16:19,160 --> 00:16:24,440 was taken from Parliament. Either way, first of all, I hear 258 00:16:24,440 --> 00:16:27,120 that that Mace is, is is a replica. 259 00:16:27,120 --> 00:16:29,680 It's not the the one that was taken is a replica. 260 00:16:29,680 --> 00:16:31,160 It's not the actual one. Yeah. 261 00:16:31,640 --> 00:16:36,640 And I I just feel like they they had no right to kind of like 262 00:16:36,640 --> 00:16:40,640 find the Mace is gone. But like, they killed so many 263 00:16:40,640 --> 00:16:42,560 people, man. Like I was just. 264 00:16:42,560 --> 00:16:45,640 Seeing it's really worth all those lives. 265 00:16:46,280 --> 00:16:49,280 It wasn't even the real one in the first place. 266 00:16:49,280 --> 00:16:52,480 And I was just seeing so many videos of, of people being 267 00:16:52,480 --> 00:16:55,240 killed. Well, not people being killed, 268 00:16:55,240 --> 00:17:02,040 but like I saw videos of the police like shooting almost 269 00:17:02,040 --> 00:17:05,960 indiscriminately. And then I saw certain videos of 270 00:17:05,960 --> 00:17:10,640 like people being stuffed into like vans and stuff like that. 271 00:17:10,640 --> 00:17:15,599 Like, I, I saw some weird stuff and it's just like, I, I, I 272 00:17:15,599 --> 00:17:18,319 don't know what's happening with this government where they're 273 00:17:18,319 --> 00:17:22,520 just like killing people, man, over a Finance Bill. 274 00:17:23,800 --> 00:17:27,680 So Godurai was very unfortunate. There was so many different 275 00:17:27,680 --> 00:17:32,000 reports coming in the news, like up till now, like nobody knows 276 00:17:32,000 --> 00:17:34,960 for sure how many people died that night. 277 00:17:35,560 --> 00:17:39,960 And that's very dangerous considering the next day our our 278 00:17:39,960 --> 00:17:43,920 own president in quotes comes out to say only six people had 279 00:17:43,920 --> 00:17:47,240 died. And we knew for a fact that 280 00:17:47,240 --> 00:17:50,840 multiple people had died the night before in Gudurai, which 281 00:17:50,840 --> 00:17:56,720 even incensed people more. So rest in peace to the people 282 00:17:56,720 --> 00:18:00,000 who lost their lives on. The Yeah Man and all the. 283 00:18:00,000 --> 00:18:02,840 Mothers are real freedom fighters of the country. 284 00:18:03,120 --> 00:18:07,720 Yeah, the mothers, brothers, fathers who lost family members. 285 00:18:09,640 --> 00:18:12,680 I, I what, what They said the other, I guess from the other 286 00:18:12,680 --> 00:18:16,160 side, they're saying that there was a police officer who was 287 00:18:16,160 --> 00:18:19,680 killed. So like apparently this is. 288 00:18:20,200 --> 00:18:21,480 Really. That's what they're saying. 289 00:18:21,920 --> 00:18:26,200 Yeah, like the the police officer was was attacked by the 290 00:18:26,200 --> 00:18:29,040 people and then that's kind of what triggered the whole 291 00:18:29,040 --> 00:18:31,800 giddurai Giddurai thing. So. 292 00:18:31,800 --> 00:18:35,440 But we don't know. I, I didn't hear that report, 293 00:18:35,440 --> 00:18:41,320 but either we're just, I, I don't know, I don't know, man. 294 00:18:41,840 --> 00:18:45,840 And then bro, Wednesday was an interesting day because 295 00:18:45,840 --> 00:18:49,720 obviously Ruto held the, his second address. 296 00:18:50,240 --> 00:18:53,320 Well, Tuesday night he had his address, which I feel like that 297 00:18:53,320 --> 00:18:56,440 was the real Ruto because, you know, that's where he called the 298 00:18:56,560 --> 00:18:59,200 people protesting criminals. He wasn't smiling. 299 00:18:59,320 --> 00:19:00,840 He kind of even his. Gate. 300 00:19:00,840 --> 00:19:02,920 Oh no. His gate was off. 301 00:19:03,000 --> 00:19:06,480 It was that was war. He was declaring war on us. 302 00:19:06,480 --> 00:19:13,240 He was angry and but Wednesday, Wednesday was more of a curated 303 00:19:13,240 --> 00:19:18,240 response where, you know, he started off by detailing his in 304 00:19:18,240 --> 00:19:22,040 quotes, so-called victories and things that he's done and things 305 00:19:22,040 --> 00:19:24,520 that he was looking to do with the Finance Bill. 306 00:19:24,800 --> 00:19:27,560 Like he was just kind. It felt more like a campaign. 307 00:19:27,560 --> 00:19:31,640 Obviously the address was directed not to ask the Kenyans, 308 00:19:31,640 --> 00:19:36,080 but I guess to the people who he's trying to show that he's, 309 00:19:36,080 --> 00:19:39,840 he's, you know, he's doing the right things as a president 310 00:19:40,120 --> 00:19:42,440 within the international community. 311 00:19:43,880 --> 00:19:48,880 And then one, that one comment he made about there only been 6 312 00:19:48,880 --> 00:19:54,440 deaths in this protest like that incensed a lot of people because 313 00:19:54,440 --> 00:19:59,840 we know it wasn't true even just based off of how many people had 314 00:19:59,840 --> 00:20:03,680 to be identified at the morgues and everything. 315 00:20:03,840 --> 00:20:07,320 Yeah. The thing about Wednesday, 316 00:20:07,320 --> 00:20:10,800 though, that stood out was the social media. 317 00:20:12,200 --> 00:20:17,040 Space. Yeah, because I feel like a lot 318 00:20:17,040 --> 00:20:25,400 of misinformation and propaganda kind of like circulated and then 319 00:20:25,400 --> 00:20:27,880 there was a lot of fear mongering as well. 320 00:20:28,720 --> 00:20:37,240 And yeah, Wednesday just became unfortunately a day where the 321 00:20:37,400 --> 00:20:40,640 momentum for Thursday was lost a little bit. 322 00:20:40,640 --> 00:20:43,960 And and I guess it's just, it's also because there was a lot of 323 00:20:44,160 --> 00:20:48,640 like talk that, yo, if you guys go to State House on Thursday 324 00:20:49,280 --> 00:20:52,640 for the occupied State House, there'll be more deaths and of 325 00:20:52,640 --> 00:20:56,240 course people don't want to die. So as a result, the 326 00:20:56,240 --> 00:20:59,040 communication on Thursday was kind of confused because people 327 00:20:59,040 --> 00:21:01,680 were like, are we still going to State House or are we just going 328 00:21:01,680 --> 00:21:04,560 to into CBD or are we doing this or are we doing that? 329 00:21:04,560 --> 00:21:09,840 And within that lack of like a like. 330 00:21:10,320 --> 00:21:11,240 A. What do you call it? 331 00:21:11,280 --> 00:21:14,280 A central yes, yes, central like. 332 00:21:14,280 --> 00:21:17,160 Deploying of information and I guess that's, that's, that's one 333 00:21:17,160 --> 00:21:21,320 of the things that is, I don't call it a drawback. 334 00:21:21,320 --> 00:21:23,160 I, I don't want to put any negative connotation on it. 335 00:21:23,160 --> 00:21:24,440 But then that's one of the things I guess that's 336 00:21:24,440 --> 00:21:28,960 challenging about how this current demonstrations are being 337 00:21:28,960 --> 00:21:31,400 held because it's been done by the people and we are literally 338 00:21:31,400 --> 00:21:35,440 just going out. And, and, but then there also we 339 00:21:35,440 --> 00:21:42,440 also stand there's, there's a risk of, of groups doing what 340 00:21:42,440 --> 00:21:47,560 feels right within the immediate group you're in rather than 341 00:21:47,800 --> 00:21:51,640 binding together. So I guess that that's that's, 342 00:21:51,640 --> 00:21:54,000 that's one thing that we might need to and I understand why, 343 00:21:54,000 --> 00:21:59,160 because again, people, people have there's there's a thought 344 00:21:59,160 --> 00:22:02,960 of if we have like a specific leader or a bunch of leaders. 345 00:22:04,640 --> 00:22:08,200 Sorry, I'm just, I'm just remembering those, those four 346 00:22:08,200 --> 00:22:10,320 were there four or five who came out and started saying that to 347 00:22:10,320 --> 00:22:12,000 do their forming a party. I talked about last week. 348 00:22:12,240 --> 00:22:13,440 It just came. I don't even know. 349 00:22:13,480 --> 00:22:16,160 Oh the oh, the Gen. Z, the next Gen. alliance. 350 00:22:16,480 --> 00:22:18,680 Oh my God, that's so embarrassing. 351 00:22:18,840 --> 00:22:22,920 Thing that's so embarrassing, but no SO if there's like a 352 00:22:22,920 --> 00:22:26,520 specific leader or leaders like we see how the government is is 353 00:22:26,520 --> 00:22:30,000 is sort of abducting people who they feel are, you know, in 354 00:22:30,000 --> 00:22:33,640 charge of the information. And so there's that fear that, 355 00:22:33,920 --> 00:22:36,520 hey, if we have a central place that the information is coming 356 00:22:36,520 --> 00:22:39,120 off from, we'll just cut it down and cut the movement off. 357 00:22:39,360 --> 00:22:42,280 So I understand both sides in in where we feel like we don't need 358 00:22:42,280 --> 00:22:45,640 to have a specific person or people or party or group or 359 00:22:45,640 --> 00:22:47,560 company or whatever it is leading us. 360 00:22:48,080 --> 00:22:51,040 But also there needs to be a better there needs to there 361 00:22:51,040 --> 00:22:53,440 needs to be a, a way to better chance. 362 00:22:53,600 --> 00:22:59,480 I mean. Well, I I mean I don't know the 363 00:22:59,560 --> 00:23:01,080 information. Kind of the. 364 00:23:01,760 --> 00:23:04,600 I don't know for sure. I think I like that this 365 00:23:04,880 --> 00:23:09,120 movement is leaderless. You know the thing about like. 366 00:23:09,320 --> 00:23:12,200 But you see, either way, the government is going to find ways 367 00:23:12,200 --> 00:23:15,440 to compromise both. But I think it's easier to 368 00:23:15,440 --> 00:23:20,200 compromise us having a leader because then you have somebody 369 00:23:20,200 --> 00:23:21,400 to target. Yeah. 370 00:23:21,400 --> 00:23:25,200 And then you can, you can because it's, it's it'll always 371 00:23:25,200 --> 00:23:27,760 devolve into okay, let's let's talk. 372 00:23:28,000 --> 00:23:30,920 And then the talking will go on for two years and then there 373 00:23:30,920 --> 00:23:34,360 will be a handshake or like whatever, coming to terms, which 374 00:23:34,360 --> 00:23:38,440 doesn't really translate well. Yes. 375 00:23:38,920 --> 00:23:41,200 Headless chicken is is all right if all the chicken are running 376 00:23:41,200 --> 00:23:42,400 in the right direction, that's all. 377 00:23:42,400 --> 00:23:45,200 That's you know. Exactly, which is why they're 378 00:23:45,200 --> 00:23:49,440 also taking liberties to compromise the fact that we're 379 00:23:49,440 --> 00:23:52,080 leaderless. But I think it's better even if 380 00:23:52,080 --> 00:23:55,520 they're compromising it with misinformation and the 381 00:23:55,520 --> 00:24:01,520 abductions, of course, and just making it so that, you know, 382 00:24:01,960 --> 00:24:05,160 there's multiple sources of information and there's no, 383 00:24:05,160 --> 00:24:06,600 because that's what they're trying to do. 384 00:24:06,600 --> 00:24:10,520 Just try to like manipulate the fact that there's no leader. 385 00:24:10,920 --> 00:24:16,880 Like I think it's better than if they were just manipulating like 386 00:24:16,880 --> 00:24:19,440 the the clear leader and whatever. 387 00:24:19,440 --> 00:24:22,760 Because you see, if they abduct that person, there would be a 388 00:24:22,760 --> 00:24:28,160 huge breakdown and loss of confidence behind this protest 389 00:24:28,160 --> 00:24:31,720 and stuff, in my opinion. So like, it is what it is. 390 00:24:31,720 --> 00:24:35,760 Like obviously they they're fighting back, but we are also 391 00:24:35,760 --> 00:24:40,400 fighting, you know what I mean? So Thursday, Thursday ended up 392 00:24:40,400 --> 00:24:43,520 not being like the day that it should have been. 393 00:24:43,520 --> 00:24:46,960 But I'm still very proud of everybody who went out to CBD. 394 00:24:46,960 --> 00:24:49,720 Actually. That's very brave on the back of 395 00:24:49,720 --> 00:24:59,400 us having lost all those lives on the protest and in Gudurai. 396 00:25:00,360 --> 00:25:03,560 But then you see that brings us to wrong guy, man Wrong guy was 397 00:25:03,560 --> 00:25:09,200 another another like very, very unfortunate like time because 398 00:25:09,400 --> 00:25:13,880 the images that came out of what they did, I watched so many tik 399 00:25:13,880 --> 00:25:19,640 toks of people just in their houses hearing non-stop 400 00:25:19,640 --> 00:25:23,480 gunshots, man. And yeah, man, there was 401 00:25:23,480 --> 00:25:26,440 gunshots for days. And then obviously the videos of 402 00:25:26,440 --> 00:25:30,360 the children, man, the the two that stood out for me was the 403 00:25:30,360 --> 00:25:34,240 one kid who was just lying on, on the ground, his leg at a 404 00:25:34,240 --> 00:25:40,600 very, very odd angle with a, with a vacant expression, just 405 00:25:42,040 --> 00:25:46,320 looked like he was gone. And then there was the other one 406 00:25:46,320 --> 00:25:52,040 of the, of the of the two guys on the border border holding the 407 00:25:52,040 --> 00:25:56,720 baby who had been shot. I'm just like, bro, I don't weak 408 00:25:56,720 --> 00:25:59,000 what, what, what is going on here? 409 00:25:59,000 --> 00:26:03,200 Seriously. Like seeing those videos was 410 00:26:03,200 --> 00:26:07,560 super painful, man. Like imagine seeing that. 411 00:26:08,000 --> 00:26:11,720 That's your child. That's, that's your relative. 412 00:26:11,720 --> 00:26:15,600 That's, that's your friend. Bro. 413 00:26:15,600 --> 00:26:19,200 When, when, when, when I was 10 years old, man, my, my, my 414 00:26:19,200 --> 00:26:24,840 biggest worry was homework. It wasn't whether I'm going to, 415 00:26:24,880 --> 00:26:26,600 like, survive. Yeah. 416 00:26:27,240 --> 00:26:32,440 Or if I'm going to be short. This is it's, it's, I don't know 417 00:26:32,440 --> 00:26:36,440 man like that all. All I know is I really do hope 418 00:26:37,040 --> 00:26:40,240 that whoever is responsible for all of that is like really 419 00:26:40,240 --> 00:26:43,920 brought to justice. If it's the police, then that 420 00:26:43,920 --> 00:26:46,800 they're held accountable for it. And I don't, I don't think. 421 00:26:46,800 --> 00:26:53,040 We know who was responsible. Yeah, yeah, because that's super 422 00:26:53,040 --> 00:26:55,320 sad. I mean, I it's really sad. 423 00:26:55,320 --> 00:26:58,240 Like, this is not where we don't live in a war-torn zone, you 424 00:26:58,240 --> 00:27:01,400 know, like this is not, let me not mention the countries, but 425 00:27:01,400 --> 00:27:03,800 then, but we all know them. Countries that have been at war 426 00:27:03,800 --> 00:27:06,080 and you're scared should just come out of your house because 427 00:27:06,520 --> 00:27:11,040 gunshots and gunshots are like a regular sound of the of, of. 428 00:27:11,720 --> 00:27:14,560 Yeah. So it's really unfortunate. 429 00:27:16,000 --> 00:27:18,600 Definitely condolences to everyone who lost people. 430 00:27:21,320 --> 00:27:24,480 I, I, I, I, I like the fact that a lot more Kenyans seem to 431 00:27:24,520 --> 00:27:28,240 identify with, with people like that's one of the beauties of 432 00:27:28,240 --> 00:27:32,320 this movement is it's classless. It doesn't matter where you 433 00:27:32,320 --> 00:27:35,000 where you live. It doesn't matter whatever it 434 00:27:35,000 --> 00:27:40,960 is, like everyone at this point is we have common, a common 435 00:27:41,640 --> 00:27:47,120 desire that's driving us. And so we're all able to see 436 00:27:47,120 --> 00:27:50,720 these things and point them out as wrong rather than being, oh, 437 00:27:50,720 --> 00:27:52,640 it's not my problem because I don't live in that area. 438 00:27:52,640 --> 00:27:55,520 It's not my problem because I don't, you know, which is very 439 00:27:55,520 --> 00:27:58,120 divisive rather than than bringing us together. 440 00:27:58,120 --> 00:28:02,760 So that's one of the beauties of this movement is there's a lot 441 00:28:02,760 --> 00:28:06,520 more togetherness in, in, in how we're doing things. 442 00:28:07,120 --> 00:28:08,520 But yeah, it's very sad what's happening. 443 00:28:09,280 --> 00:28:12,120 Again, hopefully people who are the people who are responsible 444 00:28:12,120 --> 00:28:18,760 are brought to Swift justice. And Speaking of the people who 445 00:28:18,760 --> 00:28:22,800 are responsible, I mean, we've just come. 446 00:28:22,800 --> 00:28:26,560 So we're recording this on Sunday and we've just come from 447 00:28:26,560 --> 00:28:34,080 watching the round table that the president, I said I wouldn't 448 00:28:34,080 --> 00:28:39,760 call him that, that William Bruto had with Linus, Linus 449 00:28:40,160 --> 00:28:47,440 Kaikai and Eric Klatif as well as Joao man. 450 00:28:47,600 --> 00:28:51,120 And yeah, like shout out to them because they actually were 451 00:28:51,520 --> 00:28:57,920 asking the hard questions, man.

Let's review your game tape. 458 00:29:15,280 --> 00:29:22,440 Ruto said a bunch of nothing. He chose he he he used every 459 00:29:22,440 --> 00:29:25,960 trick in the book man to just like deflect. 460 00:29:25,960 --> 00:29:29,600 Because I I know these guys how they're coached like to answer 461 00:29:29,600 --> 00:29:32,240 questions, especially when they don't want to answer questions 462 00:29:32,240 --> 00:29:36,240 is you always have to take the narrative and whatever you ask, 463 00:29:36,240 --> 00:29:39,520 like somebody could ask, could, could say, like you could ask me 464 00:29:39,520 --> 00:29:42,600 Afam, how was your day? And I'll respond by saying, 465 00:29:42,800 --> 00:29:46,600 well, you know, days are relative and the definition of 466 00:29:46,600 --> 00:29:50,320 me thinking about has changed. Yeah, it has changed. 467 00:29:50,800 --> 00:29:55,360 And we have to address the people and we have to address 468 00:29:55,360 --> 00:30:00,000 the people who are trying to define what a day is, because 469 00:30:00,160 --> 00:30:03,400 the 24 hours that I had are not the same. 470 00:30:03,760 --> 00:30:06,840 I mean, the 24 hours I used to know for what they used to be 471 00:30:06,840 --> 00:30:09,520 and what they used to represent are not the same as what they 472 00:30:09,520 --> 00:30:12,520 are today. And that's why you know what I 473 00:30:12,520 --> 00:30:14,320 mean? So you just end up like 474 00:30:15,360 --> 00:30:18,480 answering your you have to. So that's what the politicians 475 00:30:18,480 --> 00:30:20,200 do. You ask them the question and 476 00:30:20,200 --> 00:30:23,880 they just go off on a tiny. Man, you ask the question. 477 00:30:23,880 --> 00:30:25,560 And then they. Yeah, they create. 478 00:30:25,880 --> 00:30:28,120 They create another question from your question, then they 479 00:30:28,120 --> 00:30:30,840 answer it without really answering what you've asked 480 00:30:30,840 --> 00:30:32,120 them. And then now they look at you 481 00:30:32,120 --> 00:30:34,920 like, like expectantly, like, see, I've answered your 482 00:30:34,920 --> 00:30:36,040 question. No, you haven't. 483 00:30:36,040 --> 00:30:38,600 You've just really answered your own questions. 484 00:30:39,880 --> 00:30:42,120 And that's essentially what he's just done. 485 00:30:42,280 --> 00:30:47,960 Yeah, they definitely they've, they've, they've, they didn't 486 00:30:47,960 --> 00:30:51,840 back down from the really important questions, which which 487 00:30:51,960 --> 00:30:55,000 I really applaud them for, you know, the, the, yeah, 488 00:30:55,080 --> 00:30:56,960 definitely. And, and when he didn't answer, 489 00:30:56,960 --> 00:31:00,240 they pushed and pushed and pushed and pushed and pushed. 490 00:31:00,560 --> 00:31:03,600 Of course, if he's not, if he doesn't answer the questions, I 491 00:31:03,640 --> 00:31:06,160 mean, and give like actual answers, they can't sit there 492 00:31:06,160 --> 00:31:09,400 until until 2:00 AM in the morning still trying to get an 493 00:31:09,400 --> 00:31:12,520 answer out of him. So, but I think they did a good 494 00:31:12,520 --> 00:31:16,280 job so far and it'll be interesting to see what people 495 00:31:16,280 --> 00:31:19,040 are saying about that. But yeah. 496 00:31:19,600 --> 00:31:22,440 I mean, bro, Ruto, Ruto has done he's done. 497 00:31:22,440 --> 00:31:26,320 So like bro, he's thrown the police under the bus, then he's 498 00:31:26,320 --> 00:31:29,480 defended what they've done, then he's thrown them under the bus 499 00:31:29,480 --> 00:31:32,160 again.

And, you know, obviously like 530 00:33:19,440 --> 00:33:23,720 we've been talking about like, you know, there's a lot of like 531 00:33:25,720 --> 00:33:30,040 attempts to kind of like have different messaging in this 532 00:33:30,040 --> 00:33:33,120 period, have people a bit confused and stuff like that. 533 00:33:34,320 --> 00:33:38,280 But Tuesday and Thursday still happening. 534 00:33:38,440 --> 00:33:41,480 So, you know, in the early in the week, there was a Seven Days 535 00:33:41,480 --> 00:33:49,280 of Justice poster going around. And then after that, there was a 536 00:33:49,280 --> 00:33:53,760 7 seven days raging on poster going around. 537 00:33:53,760 --> 00:33:56,920 And now the prominent poster going around is the seven days 538 00:33:56,920 --> 00:34:01,680 journey to the new Saba Saba. So yeah, there's different 539 00:34:02,280 --> 00:34:04,440 posters going around and everything. 540 00:34:04,640 --> 00:34:09,280 But me, me personally, all I know is Tuesday and Thursday is 541 00:34:09,280 --> 00:34:15,440 very much on every Tuesday, Tuesday, Tuesday, Tuesday is 542 00:34:15,440 --> 00:34:20,239 still happening, man. So we're not relenting until our 543 00:34:20,239 --> 00:34:23,960 concerns are are heard. And our primary concern is that 544 00:34:23,960 --> 00:34:29,679 Ruto must go. I do like the Saba Saba poster 545 00:34:29,679 --> 00:34:34,040 because it's, it's kind of equating the circumstances that 546 00:34:34,040 --> 00:34:38,080 led to Saba Saba day in 1990 to what's happening today. 547 00:34:38,360 --> 00:34:44,320 And you know, the common denominator is a leader who is 548 00:34:44,320 --> 00:34:50,960 very much dictatorial. And so according to the Saba 549 00:34:50,960 --> 00:34:58,520 Saba poster, on July 1st, which is Monday, it'll be for the 550 00:34:58,520 --> 00:35:00,600 flag. In honour of those who have lost 551 00:35:00,600 --> 00:35:03,160 their lives fighting for a better Kenya, we share flag 552 00:35:03,160 --> 00:35:05,880 pictures. Tuesday will be iPod Day with 553 00:35:05,880 --> 00:35:09,120 support from the Police Reforms Working Group. 554 00:35:10,320 --> 00:35:15,360 We need to present grievances on police brutality, therefore 555 00:35:15,360 --> 00:35:19,000 issue notice for a peaceful Saba Saba rally on Sunday. 556 00:35:19,200 --> 00:35:22,200 Wednesday will be a day of shame, name and shame 557 00:35:22,200 --> 00:35:25,360 individuals in Zacchao's government who have featured in 558 00:35:25,360 --> 00:35:28,800 all manner of scandals before and after their appointments. 559 00:35:28,880 --> 00:35:31,680 Speaking of which, there's somebody who created a portal 560 00:35:31,840 --> 00:35:35,880 where all you need to do is type in the name of an MP and it'll 561 00:35:35,880 --> 00:35:38,520 pop up with all their corruption. 562 00:35:38,680 --> 00:35:40,600 Have you seen this some? No, no. 563 00:35:41,640 --> 00:35:45,200 Yeah, some, somebody created a portal where if you just type in 564 00:35:45,200 --> 00:35:48,680 the name of the of the MP, it'll bring up all the corruption 565 00:35:48,680 --> 00:35:54,840 cases that they have. And I think you can also try and 566 00:35:54,840 --> 00:35:58,320 recall them as a as a result or something like that. 567 00:35:58,600 --> 00:36:01,680 It's actually very insane. Like, that's interesting, the 568 00:36:01,880 --> 00:36:06,640 capabilities that technology is allowing us. 569 00:36:06,680 --> 00:36:11,400 So yeah, so on on Wednesday, that's all we'll be doing. 570 00:36:11,400 --> 00:36:17,400 We'll be shaming them. 4th of July on Thursday will be a day 571 00:36:17,400 --> 00:36:20,800 of mothers gathering at Jivanji Gardens and elsewhere around the 572 00:36:20,800 --> 00:36:24,240 country in solidarity with our mothers who have lost their 573 00:36:24,240 --> 00:36:28,600 children. On Friday the 5th day of fathers 574 00:36:28,600 --> 00:36:31,400 gathering a dead and Kimathi statue and elsewhere around the 575 00:36:31,400 --> 00:36:35,000 country in solidarity with our fathers who have lost their 576 00:36:35,000 --> 00:36:38,680 children on 6th. On Saturday will be Saba Saba 577 00:36:38,680 --> 00:36:42,960 mega concert at a venue to be confirmed plus a live stream on 578 00:36:42,960 --> 00:36:45,640 YouTube. And on Sunday which will 579 00:36:45,680 --> 00:36:50,360 actually be July 7th Saba Saba day, there'll be vigils. 580 00:36:50,360 --> 00:36:54,120 Nairobi citizens gather at Kimathi statue and March to 581 00:36:54,120 --> 00:36:57,640 Nyayo house and keep a vigil outside the building. 582 00:36:57,920 --> 00:37:03,200 Also have countrywide vigils in the 47 counties. 583 00:37:03,240 --> 00:37:08,320 And at the back of the poster or the second poster just shows the 584 00:37:09,800 --> 00:37:15,480 kind of history that Saba Saba holds for our country. 585 00:37:15,480 --> 00:37:19,680 And I think it's really well put together and it's a very 586 00:37:19,680 --> 00:37:22,360 sensible To Do List for next week. 587 00:37:23,200 --> 00:37:27,640 Yeah, I mean that that seems like the directive especially 588 00:37:27,640 --> 00:37:32,320 for the for the for the the man. The man was the Tuesday and the 589 00:37:32,320 --> 00:37:35,560 Thursdays again, we still go out. 590 00:37:35,560 --> 00:37:37,200 We still go out. We still keep to the goal. 591 00:37:37,200 --> 00:37:39,960 We still attempt to to get ourselves heard. 592 00:37:40,640 --> 00:37:43,920 The president keeps, I mean, Ruto keeps talking about about 593 00:37:43,960 --> 00:37:46,560 conversation and conversation and conversation. 594 00:37:47,120 --> 00:37:52,760 We need to amplify our voices to make sure like the country 595 00:37:52,760 --> 00:37:54,600 belongs. The country is is is the 596 00:37:54,600 --> 00:37:57,520 people's like we are the ones we make up the country. 597 00:37:57,760 --> 00:38:00,520 So we definitely should, should should keep that up. 598 00:38:01,000 --> 00:38:03,600 Yeah, it must go. It's. 599 00:38:03,600 --> 00:38:06,360 Difficult, it's difficult to go out knowing, I know like the 600 00:38:06,360 --> 00:38:09,920 first, the first day, like the charge is great because you know 601 00:38:09,920 --> 00:38:12,240 you're going out for cause and you don't anticipate yourself, 602 00:38:12,280 --> 00:38:15,800 you know, being dying for no reason, right. 603 00:38:16,080 --> 00:38:18,880 So the more you see that, the harder it probably becomes and 604 00:38:18,880 --> 00:38:21,320 the more braver we we need to be about this kind of thing. 605 00:38:21,320 --> 00:38:26,080 So not to be insensitive. I know like losing a life is 606 00:38:26,080 --> 00:38:29,560 definitely a scary thing. Like, it's hard to see a cop 607 00:38:29,560 --> 00:38:34,080 just like raise his gun and fire at you and the of the friends 608 00:38:34,080 --> 00:38:37,640 around you just because you guys are standing up for yourselves. 609 00:38:37,640 --> 00:38:41,040 So I know that's really tough, but I think it's, it's still 610 00:38:41,040 --> 00:38:45,120 important that we we're outside. It's important that we we push 611 00:38:45,120 --> 00:38:47,960 till the end and not let it die out. 612 00:38:49,480 --> 00:38:51,880 Yeah. Indeed. 613 00:38:53,040 --> 00:38:55,400 Yo. So when it comes to music, I 614 00:38:55,400 --> 00:38:58,040 mean, people haven't really been releasing as frequently. 615 00:38:58,040 --> 00:39:00,880 And I completely understand. I know a lot of people have 616 00:39:00,880 --> 00:39:03,800 postponed like events and postponed shows and even 617 00:39:03,800 --> 00:39:07,760 postponed like their releases. I mean, right now isn't really a 618 00:39:07,800 --> 00:39:14,400 time where I think our message needs to be streamlined into 619 00:39:14,400 --> 00:39:19,440 Ruto Must Go. And yeah, so I understand if the 620 00:39:19,440 --> 00:39:22,240 music has slowed down South. Yeah. 621 00:39:22,560 --> 00:39:25,880 I don't know, Sam, what? What do you think we should do 622 00:39:25,880 --> 00:39:28,840 for the end of the podcast this week? 623 00:39:29,120 --> 00:39:32,680 I think I think in, in, in, in in line of what we did last 624 00:39:32,680 --> 00:39:36,440 week. It's yeah, I like, I like it 625 00:39:36,440 --> 00:39:41,760 when when music, I said it last week, like when, when artists 626 00:39:41,760 --> 00:39:45,920 sort of like journal the the the voice of the people and try to 627 00:39:45,920 --> 00:39:47,840 amplify it. So I think we should continue 628 00:39:47,840 --> 00:39:52,120 with that, play another song that that, and we have many, we 629 00:39:52,120 --> 00:39:55,400 have many songs that are that are, you know, I don't say 630 00:39:55,400 --> 00:39:59,400 protest songs, but songs that that are sort of describing 631 00:39:59,800 --> 00:40:02,560 what's going on now, songs that call out the government, songs 632 00:40:02,560 --> 00:40:06,000 that encourage the people to speak out for themselves. 633 00:40:06,080 --> 00:40:10,280 So I think we should do that. I've got one artist who was 634 00:40:10,280 --> 00:40:16,160 really known for for that in his early days is Eric Waina, and he 635 00:40:16,160 --> 00:40:18,600 released a lot of music that that. 636 00:40:19,400 --> 00:40:24,440 You know, where was aimed at holding the people who need to 637 00:40:24,440 --> 00:40:27,680 be held accountable in the government and just rallying up 638 00:40:27,680 --> 00:40:30,880 the people to fight for themselves and their rights at 639 00:40:31,520 --> 00:40:35,840 in the middle of a government that might not necessarily be be 640 00:40:37,160 --> 00:40:40,080 fighting for them. So I think we should do that. 641 00:40:40,240 --> 00:40:42,560 The song I I I really like. It's actually a very good song. 642 00:40:42,560 --> 00:40:44,960 It's very well recorded. If you listen to it like it's 643 00:40:44,960 --> 00:40:47,440 very well recorded. The mixing is great and the song 644 00:40:47,440 --> 00:40:51,840 has a good, very good message. It's a song of his album. 645 00:40:51,840 --> 00:40:54,600 I don't know what year he did it, but it's 2020. 646 00:40:54,600 --> 00:40:55,640 I think that's the name of the album. 647 00:40:55,640 --> 00:40:56,880 And the song is called Deck deck. 648 00:40:57,040 --> 00:40:59,360 It's a very amazing song. So I think that's what we'll 649 00:40:59,360 --> 00:41:03,760 play. This is Deck Deck by Eric Waina. 650 00:41:21,520 --> 00:41:26,520 In a made-up language, in a made-up time. 651 00:41:26,640 --> 00:41:34,040 A made-up people with a made-up pride. 652 00:41:35,120 --> 00:41:48,120 Singing deck, deck, deck. In my fabrication on the 653 00:41:48,120 --> 00:41:56,880 Townsling St. stood an army Jane roll trying to make a speed. 654 00:41:58,800 --> 00:42:03,800 The people would not listen. They weren't listening anymore. 655 00:42:06,320 --> 00:42:10,520 It lost too many children. In a. 656 00:42:10,520 --> 00:42:20,520 Stupid war singing. Dead, dead, dead. 657 00:42:27,600 --> 00:42:33,640 And the tent began to roll, but the people would not fool. 658 00:42:35,080 --> 00:42:41,720 And the Tiggers began to choke, but the people would not fool. 659 00:42:41,960 --> 00:42:47,520 They said come and get me, you blood circles, come and get me. 660 00:42:47,520 --> 00:42:53,320 I'm all for what I'm saying, that I will live much longer 661 00:42:54,160 --> 00:43:15,680 than the skin of living. Plus still independence. 662 00:43:17,560 --> 00:43:26,320 It's still a shade of red, despite best efforts to help us 663 00:43:26,400 --> 00:43:32,680 forget. If you listen carefully to the 664 00:43:32,720 --> 00:43:43,040 blades of red here the missing pages of our story when the 665 00:43:43,080 --> 00:44:13,960 tanks began to roll the the. 666 00:45:08,320 --> 00:45:12,480 The that was Eric Wainaina with deck deck to just charge the 667 00:45:12,480 --> 00:45:19,960 people and, and, you know, keep us in that same mind frame of we 668 00:45:19,960 --> 00:45:22,520 really want to see change in our government, really want to see 669 00:45:23,480 --> 00:45:27,680 Kenya move forward and, and all the things that have been 670 00:45:27,680 --> 00:45:30,600 holding us back. Like it's time to it's time to 671 00:45:30,600 --> 00:45:32,760 see them. Like we're done being quiet 672 00:45:32,760 --> 00:45:35,320 about this kind of stuff. So yeah, man. 673 00:45:35,560 --> 00:45:39,200 Yeah, bro, before we end, I want to give a huge shout out to 674 00:45:39,200 --> 00:45:44,960 Hanifa, Hanifa Safi on Twitter. If you're looking for her man, 675 00:45:45,080 --> 00:45:47,680 you know she has done the most man. 676 00:45:47,680 --> 00:45:52,640 She started An M Changa for all the people who either died or 677 00:45:52,640 --> 00:45:55,120 got injured during these protests. 678 00:45:55,480 --> 00:46:00,280 The initial goal was for 10 million, but as of today it has 679 00:46:00,440 --> 00:46:04,520 I think it's at 28 million raised and I think that's 680 00:46:04,520 --> 00:46:08,200 insane. And she's been almost single 681 00:46:08,200 --> 00:46:12,440 handedly disbursing these amounts to people who have been 682 00:46:13,160 --> 00:46:17,160 sending her messages via her WhatsApp and showing her the 683 00:46:17,360 --> 00:46:20,880 medical records of okay, like, you know, this person has 684 00:46:20,880 --> 00:46:24,120 suffered this and requires this for treatment, E TCTC. 685 00:46:24,400 --> 00:46:27,320 And I think she's doing it like single handedly. 686 00:46:27,440 --> 00:46:31,600 Like, and even if like so many people are on on, you know, she 687 00:46:31,600 --> 00:46:35,400 was, she was one of the voices that was heavily saying, if you 688 00:46:35,400 --> 00:46:38,520 guys go to State House, you know, I can't guarantee you, you 689 00:46:38,520 --> 00:46:41,160 all won't be shot.
