In a short video clip circulated on social media platforms much of Thursday, popular Kenyan comedian Eric Omondi, flanked by a group of youth with their mouths taped, launches a salvo of terse messages to President William Ruto.
“Mr Ruto, don’t attempt to tax the youth, don’t tax content creators… You don’t support them, you don’t know their struggles,” says Mr Omondi.
