Appealing to protesters, Mosire stated: "Next time, please spare the dustbins. They don't belong to me (Mosiria); they belong to you, the people of Nairobi. Let us not destroy them as we exercise our constitutional rights within the confines of the law."
However, netizens have demanded accountability, calling for the arrest of "goons" posing as protesters.
Some even warned of deeper political gamesmanship, alleging that saboteurs may have been planted to discredit the protest movement ahead of the 2027 elections.
"You have to protect the city, just like they do in the US, Europe & other countries. Reach out for tips here if needed. Otherwise, you'll keep losing all the gains to hired goons planted by your 2027 rivals, hiding behind so-called 'peaceful protests,'" said X user @kipweldone.
Still, amid the noise, calls for justice remained strong.
"We need to go to the polling station with photos of Albert," urged @AntonyGich52911, pointing to youth accountability and the need for political memory.
