Goonism in Kenya: Ruto Under Fire, Critics Draw Parallels To Haiti Gang Violence | Firstpost Africa
Kenya is facing a terrifying political crisis as a wave of targeted violence, locally known as 'goonism,' sweeps the nation. Pressure is rapidly mounting on President William Ruto as opposition leaders, human rights organisations, and the clergy accuse his administration of outsourcing violence to hired gangs to silence democratic dissent. The outrage peaked following a brazen attack at Nairobi’s All Saints Cathedral, where armed men on motorbikes disrupted a public budget forum, beating and robbing citizens. Security analysts are now drawing chilling parallels to Haiti, warning that politicians are creating an 'uncontrollable monster' ahead of next year's high-stakes election. Investigation exposes a 'rate card' showing vulnerable youth are recruited for as little as $4 a day to break up rallies. As the threat of informal repression escalates, human rights advocates are demanding immediate police reforms to prevent a total security collapse. Alyson Le Grange brings you more on this story on Firstpost Africa.TIME STAMPS:
