This is your reminder that a 12 year old was defiled and murdered on Tuesday and her killers are on the loose. She should be in class learning and playing with her friends. Instead she is dead. Rest in Power Jasmine Njok
This is Jasmine Njoki. She was in Roots Academy, Grade 6. On Tuesday evening, she was defiled (read raped) and murdered. Her body was dumped in a thicket in Gilgil. She was jovial, respectful & full of life. She is no more. We remember you Jasmine. Rest in Power

Thulani was fiercely committed to human rights of all Swazis, loved his country & worked for it, tirelessly standing up for victims of rights abuse, jailed for his work on trumped charges, yet remained peaceful, steadfast & resolute.Justice & accountability must be served. MHSRIP

Hello @CsChelugui. As Kenya's Cabinet Secretary for Labour and Social Protection, this is your docket. Desperate Kenyan workers in Lebanon have been camped outside the Kenyan Consulate for two weeks, in freezing winter weather, begging to come home. Please act.
“Since the 6th of January 2022, Kenyan women have been holding a sit-in along with protests in front of their Consulate in Lebanon, demanding repatriation and adequate support from the Consular Staff.” armlebanon.org/content/urgen…
