Welcome to Kenya where Generation Z are at the forefront of a revolt against the Finance Bill by President William Ruto's government. Their actions seem to have agitated people in high places if a spate or recent abductions are anything to go by. Activist Shadrack Kiprono alias 'Shad Khalif' was abducted on June 23,2024. A disturbing video from a CCTV camera surfaced on social media of Shad being abducted by three men and being forcefully shoved into a white vehicle before it sped off.

In the CCTV footage, the activist is seen walking towards a white car but before he could open it, two men are seen appear in front of him. He tries to run but they grab him while another jumps out of a white vehicle to help them bundle Shad into the vehicle. The vehicle then speeds off into the darkness. The white vehicle is an SUV that is believed to be a Toyota Land Cruiser. The incident occurred outside a shopping center in South B yesterday evening, grabbing the attention of onlookers who were left perplexed.
