Africans from countries such as Nigeria, Uganda, and South Africa, among others, were keenly following the protests from when they started to dusk, when they went home.
Not only did Kenyans impress in numbers drawn in major towns of the country, such as Nairobi, Mombasa, and Eldoret, but the young ones also made it very colourful.
In the morning, the youngsters streamed into town and were seen happily joking with policemen, dancing, and even had time to play football with each other.

A popular comedian who doubles up as a TikToker shelved other laughing matters to and opined that apart from South Africa, Kenya is the only other country that stands up to the government.
"We need to let these two countries fix this continent," said Dilan.
"Kenyans acted like the military wiythout military training. They knew when to duck, whrn to stand; they were organised. They knew the particular places to hit. Kenyan people I salute you guys, one love to muy Kenyan people," he said.
In Uganda, they said that Kenya is the only East African country where people can protest.
"Have you ever heard of a protest in Burundi or Rwanda? Your can never hear of a proests in Sudan," said Outabrian hilariously.
"Sometimes you have to give respect where it is due. Here in Uganda, as you you plan, the police will have arrested you. Fear Kenyans," he added

The EFF party and Julius Malema have roundly condemned President William Ruto's regime after its use of force on peaceful protesters.
The EFF accused the regime of suppressing dissent as well as banning media coverage to hide state brutality. Malema declared that he was in with Kenyan youth and praised their defiance against corruption and economic injustice.
The Malema party cited KNCHR reports that showed eight people were killed while hundreds were injured during the June 25 protests held in Kenya.
