During a recent event in Nakuru, university students took the opportunity to challenge UDA leaders, giving them a stern lecture that resembled how primary school students might be addressed.
The students raised concerns about unfulfilled promises made by UDA leaders and pointed out the disconnect between political rhetoric and the reality they face on the ground.
In particular, the students demanded accountability on key issues such as the high cost of living, youth unemployment, and the state of education in the country.
Their bold questioning of the leaders was a reflection of their frustration, as they emphasized the gap between the leadership’s claims and their actual experiences.
This incident highlights the growing discontent among young Kenyans, particularly university students, who feel that they have been neglected by the current administration despite previous promises to improve their livelihoods.
The session was significant because it mirrored the wider sentiment among Kenya’s youth, who are becoming more vocal in demanding better leadership and tangible results.
It also underscores a shift in the political landscape where young people are no longer passive but are actively engaging with leaders and holding them accountable.
