Victims of state violence, represented by the Coalition of Victims & Survivors Against State Violence (CVSSV), are threatening mass demonstrations over the government's failure to release promised compensation funds by the June 1 deadline.

• The CVSSV accuses the Kenyan government of breaking its commitment to compensate victims of protest-related abuses by June 2026.
• Key figures include co-conveners Joshua Okayo and Bernard Kavuli, representing hundreds of survivors and families of those killed or injured by police.
• A "Panel of Experts on Compensation of Victims of Demonstrations and Public Protests" was established by President William Ruto's advisor, Prof. Makau Mutua, to process claims dating back to 2017, but the process is criticized for poor communication.
