Kenya has seen more than 100 deaths resulting from violent government crackdowns on anti-government protests between 2024 and 2025. A particularly significant wave of unrest occurred on June 25, 2024, when thousands of citizens demonstrated against the public finance law and its associated taxes. These protests ended in widespread violence carried out by law enforcement. To mark the upcoming anniversary of these events, a religious service was held on June 21. The memorial took place at the Nairobi Baptist Church to honor those who lost their lives. The ceremony served as a solemn reminder of the human cost of the political unrest. It highlighted the ongoing tension between the Kenyan state and its citizens regarding fiscal policies.
