Kenyan Police Clash with Protesters as President's New Cabinet is Sworn In
ai generated text
Protests in Nairobi, Kenya, have entered their eighth week, with demonstrators calling for the resignation of President William Ruto. Police have responded with tear gas, and businesses and public transport have been affected. The protests, which began in June, have been sparked by a range of issues, including a controversial finance bill and tax hikes. Despite President Ruto's cabinet overhaul and scrapping of planned tax hikes, protesters continue to demand reform. The Kenyan Commission on Human Rights has reported over 50 deaths since the demonstrations began. The protests have been marked by sometimes deadly clashes between police and protesters, with the latest round of demonstrations dubbed the "Nane Nane March".
I am convinced that this moment to build a strong team of rivals. With the formation of this broad-based government that brings together former political rivals into one selfless patriotic team, we will unlock the potential of our country that has long been denied us by factional and sectarian competition.
