Yesterday, Hon. Jayne Kihara, MP for Naivasha, was arrested. Today we are in court not just to defend her but to defend the right to speak truth to power.
She is accused of incitement. Yet we have heard the President and his allies tell police to shoot innocent protesters, profile entire communities, and escort state-sponsored goons looting and destroying property. It is all on video.
That is incitement. That is violence.
And yet an MP speaks up and is dragged to court?
This is not law. It is repression.
We will not be silenced.
We will not be intimidated.
We will fight back.
