From June to early July, Kenyan youth protests erupted following the death in custody of blogger Albert Omondi Ojwang, with roots in earlier Finance Bill dissent. Demonstrations claimed over 65 lives, injured 553+, and saw 532+ arrests. Organized via social media by Gen Z activists without central leadership, the movement highlights decentralized activism’s power. Underlying drivers include rising living costs, corruption, and police brutality. The unrest signals sustained pressure for accountability and reform.
