Anita Barasa turned her phone’s selfie camera on to record a video, one of many she has made before. But this clip was different. It wasn’t for her thousands of TikTok followers, but for a man she deeply admired.
“Agwambo, this is a message to you,” began Barasa in her message to former Prime Minister Raila Odinga, recorded just days before the Generation Z revolt erupted. “Usitokee (Don’t come out). Don’t come. Agwambo, please stay at home. We saw your efforts, okay? We saw everything you did for Kenyans.”
