Boda Guys Ride With Placards: “We Are Tired Of Gen Zs, Give President Ruto Time”
An unusual protest has unfolded in Nairobi’s Central Business District, with Boda Boda riders taking to the streets to express their discontent with Generation Z and their calls for President William Ruto’s resignation.
Carrying placards and banners with messages such as “We are tired of Gen Z’s; give President Ruto time,” the riders have become an unexpected player in the ongoing political landscape.

However, the authenticity of these protests has been questioned, with many suggesting they are government-sponsored to disrupt the activities of Generation Z. Eyewitnesses claim the riders are unfamiliar faces and believe they have been hired to cause chaos.
These counter-protests come amidst a backdrop of frequent demonstrations calling for President Ruto’s resignation. While some Kenyans are growing weary of the disruptions caused by these protests, others remain steadfast in their demands, vowing to continue until their voices are heard.
The situation has created a divided nation, with tensions running high between those who support the protests and those who believe they are causing unnecessary hardship.
