It has been more than a month since Kenyans took to the streets to protest a new tax bill. The Gen-Z movement has remained defiant despite threats to their safety, even after the bill was withdrawn and President William Ruto dismissed his cabinet.

The largely peaceful protests, primarily led by young Gen-Z activists, escalated into violent confrontations last Tuesday. The situation deteriorated when lawmakers passed the contentious tax legislation, prompting protesters to storm the parliament complex in Nairobi. The building was partially set ablaze, and police responded with live ammunition, leading to more casualties and injuries. President William Ruto, facing his most severe crisis since taking office in September 2022, addressed the nation on Sunday. He acknowledged the deaths of 19 people but denied any personal responsibility for the violence, pledging to investigate the fatalities.

Deadly protests in Kenya erupted over controversial tax increases, leading to 30 deaths and hundreds injured. Parliament's decision sparked violent clashes, condemned internationally for excessive force. President Ruto's administration withdrew the tax bill amid public outcry but faces economic strains. Calls for accountability and reform underscore the need to balance fiscal policies with human rights, aiming for a sustainable future.
