You will never convince our generation that you can ever be trusted, ever again. When young people marched patriotically, wearing Kenyan flags on their backs and raising their voices, you responded with bullets and death. And NOW you have supposedly ‘heard’ and want dialogue? For 20 months you have been speaking, it’s our time now.
No more commissions of enquiry, no more multisectoral taskforces, no more reports, no more diverting our attention. If you have heard us, then no more talking—just act. We want to wake up in the morning with budget allocations reworked, with the Appropriations Bill overhauled, your MPs sacked, your Cabinet Secretaries sacked, the wheels of Constitutional amendments to begin turning, and your resignation on Gen-Z's desk for them to decide whether to accept.
This will go down in history, and we are no longer in an era where history can be manipulated. #RutoMustGo

Highlights from today's session "Financial mechanisms for locally owned internet networks" at @intgovforum with @rhizomatica @tunapandanet @Connect_Fund @ConnectivityCap ⬇️
#IGF2022 #communitynetworks
ALT "Financial sustainability is key to community owned networks. There are amazing resources out there through the work of Internet Society, the Association for Progressive Communications, Connect Humanity and others that help understand how to do stakeholder engagement, how to have shared governance models." Ben Matranga, Connectivity Capital
ALT "Community connectivity providers are uniquely suitable for connecting underserved communities. When you look at certain hard to reach areas, whether it's rural, remote or urban, you have to think differently about how to connect those areas because the return on investment is different." Jane Coffin, Connect Humanity
ALT "Communities are starting to understand the importance of having their own networks to serve their own needs and solve their problems. Digital literacy and capacity building are key to understanding what it takes to start, operate, and sustain a community-owned network." Risper Akinyi, TundapandaNET Community Network
