Man accused of disrupting a photo session of CS Treasury Njuguna Finally Speaks Amid Reject Finance Bill 2024 Debate.
A man accused of disrupting a photo session of CS Treasury Njuguna Ndung’u by yelling and shouting was Friday charged before a Nairobi court.
Eric Mankuyu was charged alongside Julius Kamau who did not plead to the charges.
Mankuyu was charged that jointly with others not before the court, he created a disturbance in a manner likely to cause a breach of peace by yelling, shouting and attempting to disrupt the photo shooting session by the Cabinet Secretary National Treasury and Economic Planning and his delegates.
They are alleged to have committed the offence on June 13 at the Treasury Building along Harambee Avenue.
Mankuyu denied the charges before Milimani senior principal magistrate Benard Ochoi and pleaded for lenient bond terms.
On his part Mankuyu stated,” I think we have failed ourselves. The government has failed. We cannot continue living in fear. For sixty years, we have been living in a country where we are considered children of a lesser god.”
“We are ruled by a minority that does not care about the interests of the majority. We are victims of failed promises. I don’t know whether you will sentence me for 100 years. But I will continue speaking the truth,” he added
