The nationwide #RejectFinanceBill2024 and #RutoMustGo protests continue:

The Kenyan Parliament and Ruto’s minions vote for the Finance Bill against the clear wishes of that nationwide protesting Kenyans, and that triggered all sorts of negative reactions:

The protestors who were already close to Parliament began to move in on Parliment after Parliament voted against their interests:

As a consequence and counter-reaction, ‘security’ forces began shooting and in some cases killing protesters with live ammunition:

https://x.com/ItsChanzu/status/1806306084522475565

People prop up the alive or dead person:

They get shot at, drop the person/body and run:

A teargas cannister lands directly on the person/body:

It explodes and hurls the person/dead body into the air, finishing them off in case they were still alive:

Another consequence of the Kenyan Parliament voting against the express wishes and needs of the Kenyan public and the use of live ammunition — also audible in the following footage — was the afternoon invasion and brief occupation of the Kenyan Parliament:

Allegedly from around 5 to 9pm and in the Nairobi area of Githurai 45, Ruto’s goons continued with the ‘conversation’ aka killings of Kenyans (#StopGithuraiKillings) — many shots can be heard fired in the following videos:

The UN is monitoring the situation:

In the afternoon, Ruto gives another lie-riddled speech in which, after calling Kenyans criminals and terrorists the previous day, he now tries to sweet-talk and love-bomb them:

https://x.com/LarryMadowo/status/1805999505084461082

A somewhat unresolved technical issue and question is whether the bill might still become law even after Ruto withdraws or rejects it:

More footage of masked Ruto goons with guns and without uniforms: Are they — presumably from the NIS or from Ruto’s own county — responsible for the excessive violence, abductions and deaths?
