WHAT NEXT AFTER THE JAMHURI DAY FIASCO
On December 12, 2008, the government of Kenya marked the 45th anniversary
of the Independence of Kenya with a deliberate and calculated attack on the
fundamental rights and freedom of the Kenyan people. Thousands of Kenyans
across the country were arrested and brutalised by the Kenya Police for wearing
black t-shirts. Many were detained in holding cells in stadiums, in police trucks
and at police stations across the country. By the end of the day all were released
save for several members of the Partnership for Change who were held for three
days in violation of their fundamental rights.
Further, the Partnership for Change strongly condemns the arrest of
journalists this morning. It is a shame that journalists who were acting in their
normal professional duties were arrested and charged on court. Despite the fact
that the retrogressive bill has not been signed into law, the government is
already cracking down on the media. The recent use of force by the state
security forces against innocent Kenyans must be punished. We demand the
immediate resignation of the following people for their role in the illegal
crackdown against the people and the media:
• The Minister for Internal Security, Prof George Saitoti
• The Commissioner of Police, Major General Hussein Ali
• The Minister of Information, Mr. Samuel Poghisio
Kenyan politicians are not likely to resign, we are aware. We are, therefore,
additionally asking the Prime Minister who is responsible for supervising the
various ministries to recommend to the President that the two Ministers be
immediately removed from our cabinet.
