There’s only one person who speaks for workers, and he doesn’t support protests

The hustler government wishes to inform all Kenyans that we are still coming to terms with the events that happened on Wednesday this week, where hungry hustlers marched to the upper streets of Nairobi to ask flower pots why they were happy when everyone is suffering from the high cost of living; and of the police who rushed to the scene to save the situation only to end up saving themselves from running a marathon they had not prepared for.

We also take this earliest opportunity to apologise to the Board of Management of Kihumbuini Primary School in Dagoretti South constituency, for using their school as a lab to test the ability of children’s lungs to withstand our latest variety of flavoured teargas.
