Siaya Governor James Orengo was seen riding pillion on a motorbike through Nairobi's Central Business District on June 25, 2026, in a show of solidarity with ongoing protests. The demonstrations, led by Gen-Z activists, mark the second anniversary of youth-led protests in Kenya.
Orengo, a veteran opposition figure, waved a large Kenyan flag as the motorbike navigated through the crowd. The protests have drawn attention to issues of governance and economic hardship, with participants calling for reforms.
The governor's participation underscores the political significance of the movement, which has mobilized young Kenyans across the country. Police were present in the CBD but no major incidents were reported as of the time of writing.
