Kathiani Member of Parliament (MP) Robert Mbui has joined Kenyans and a section of leaders in condemning the Kenya Kwanza administration following the damning BBC exposé dubbed Blood Parliament, which revealed the killing of protesters during last year’s anti-Finance Bill demonstrations.
Speaking during a TV interview on Tuesday, April 29, 2025, the legislator threw his weight behind the disclosure, noting that it is unfortunate and unacceptable that some leaders want the documentary to stop being aired in the country.
He defended the Gen Zs, stating that those who brutally lost their lives at the demos were killed for no good reason; this, according to the lawmaker, is enough reason for the documentary to continue being aired to put an end to such brutality in the future.
“To hear leaders argue that the BBC documentary should stop being aired in Kenya because it exposes the nation is quite unfortunate and unacceptable. The truth is that our children were killed for no good reason, and therefore this has to be exposed so that we can be sure that this thing doesn’t go on,” he said.
Additionally, Mbui poked holes into the police sector, fingering them for enabling perpetrators by protecting them, thus preventing justice from prevailing.
“The reality is that Kenyan police know who killed the Gen Zs because, for most of those that were shot, the bullets can be traced back to the gun that was. Fired, and the guns can be traced to the individuals who handed over the gun. This information is clearly in the hands of the police, and what they are doing is trying to block justice from prevailing,” he said.
Continuing his spiel, the legislator maintained his stance that the youthful Kenyans were outraged because they were unarmed during the protests but still got killed; he also added that the military were deployed on civilians without the approval of the Parliament.
