In a recent turn of events, Nuru Okanga, a fervent supporter of Raila Odinga and an ardent Azimio La Umoja fan, has directed a message towards President Ruto following his arrest and subsequent arraignment. The message, posted on Okanga’s Facebook page, conveyed a tone of both defiance and a hint of remorse.
In the Facebook post, Okanga stated, “I was arrested because of exercising my constitutional rights. Apologies to those who were offended. May God bless Kenya. Peace.” This message comes in the wake of Okanga’s detention, presumably linked to the exercise of his freedom of expression.
Further insight into the matter reveals that Okanga shared a charge sheet on his social media account. The document allegedly displayed charges related to insulting President Ruto. The charges were reportedly linked to a speech made by Okanga, the contents of which were disseminated through a YouTube channel identified as Riba News.
The incident raises questions about the boundaries of free speech and the role of social media platforms in contemporary political discourse.
