Why do Nairobi residents living in low-income neighborhoods have to keep begging Governor Sakaja to provide them with basic services? #SemaUkweli

It's been 100 days since that fateful day when pro-good governance demonstrators occupied Parliament. The government responded by mercilessly executing some of them, and then embarked on an ongoing terror campaign of abductions, torture, and murder of its citizens. #SemaUkweli

After successfully recovering two more bodies yesterday in a day-long peaceful exercise, residents of Kware were dispersed by police with teargas as they made their way back home. Tensions remained high as police tried to flush out suspected criminals late into the night.

This is Kikuyu Road, Waithaka Ward, (between Equity Bank and Spices Restaurant). The MCA is Antony Kiragu and the area MP is John Kiarie. Residents are wondering how their MP had time to go campaign for Mariga, while roads in his own Constituency are impassable. #SemaUkweli

Scores of protestors were arrested today during the #RejectFinanceBill2024 demonstrations, including Sema Ukweli's @BonifaceMwangi . We call for the unconditional release of all protestors, who were peacefully exercising their Constitutional Rights.

Out of 400 protestors arrested yesterday, only 3 are being charged with an offense. Lawyers claim the 3 are being held inside a car within the court's premises and demand that the police produce them in court as required by law. #SemaUkweli

I’m Scholastica Wamucie. This is my story of oppression, mistreatment, and betrayal by my husband Shakir Mohamed Merali. After 28 years together, he decided I was no longer fit to be his wife and should be humiliated by getting kicked out of our matrimonial home. #SemaUkweli
