Kenya Finance Protests: Influencer Accused of Betraying Protesters Beaten
Share on FacebookShare on TwitterShare on Whatsapp

A popular Kenyan influencer, Kevin Monari, also known as @Osama_otero on social media, has been severely beaten by a group of protesters who accused him of conspiring with the government to frustrate the ongoing protests against the controversial Finance Bill.

The protests, which began last week, have been met with brutal force by the Kenyan police, resulting in at least 39 deaths and numerous injuries, according to reports by Al Jazeera. The protesters are demanding the repeal of the Finance Bill, which introduced new taxes on various goods and services, citing economic hardship and government corruption.

Monari, who has over 500,000 followers on social media, was alleged to have been paid by the government to spread propaganda and discredit the protests. He was also accused of revealing the identities of protesters to the police, leading to their arrest and detention.

The influencer’s beating was captured on video and shared widely on social media, sparking outrage and condemnation from human rights groups and opposition leaders. The Kenyan government has denied any involvement in the incident and promised to investigate the matter.

The protests continue to escalate, with demonstrators clashing with police in various parts of the capital city, Nairobi. The government has maintained that the protests are sponsored by Western nations, while the opposition blames the government for the violence.

Human Rights Concerns

Human rights groups have expressed concern over the excessive use of force by the Kenyan police and the government’s attempts to silence dissenting voices. “The government’s response to the protests has been heavy-handed and unjustified,” said a spokesperson for Amnesty International. “We call on the government to respect the rights of protesters and to investigate the allegations of police brutality.”

Opposition Reaction

The opposition leader, Raila Odinga, has condemned the government’s actions and called for international intervention. “The government has lost control and is now resorting to violence to silence its critics,” he said. “We urge the international community to intervene and help us restore democracy in Kenya.”

Government Response

The Kenyan government has maintained that the protests are illegal and that the police are acting within their mandate to maintain law and order. “The government will not tolerate any form of violence or destruction of property,” said a government spokesperson.
