Blood Parliament

In 2024, a protest at Kenya’s legislature was ended by the gunfire of security forces.
To this day, those shooters’ faces have remained hidden.
BBC World Service exposes the men responsible.

On June 25th 2024, blood was spilt at Kenya’s Parliament.
That day, thousands of protestors headed there to stop the #financebill2024 being passed into law.
En-route they met tear gas, truncheons, and even gunfire.
When they got there, and stormed the legislature, some of that gunfire turned lethal.
At least three people were killed: students, shopkeepers, and Sunday school teachers.
Since then, no one has been held to account for their deaths.
Now, #BBCAfricaEye can expose the men who spilled blood on the grounds of Kenya’s Parliament.
