ODM Party Leader Oburu Oginga has urged the police to protect demonstrators planning to commemorate the June 25, 2024, Gen Z protests. He emphasized that police officers are employees of the people and should facilitate peaceful protests.

• Oburu Oginga cited the planned compensation for victims of State brutality as a "token of recognition" of wrongs committed against Kenyans.
• The ODM Party Leader and the chairperson of the compensation panel, Prof Makau Mutua, are pushing for accountability beyond compensation.
• Nairobi police commander Isa Mohamud stated that no formal notification had been received for the planned demonstrations, and the government considers any gathering on Thursday illegal.
