Following their attempt to establish a political party, a group of Gen Z members led by Anita Barasa, better known as Anini, received criticism from their peers.
They were seen in a widely shared video pleading with their Gen Z peers for help as they assume leadership roles.
” You asked for a party and a party shall be formed. All we ask from you is that when you are called upon to support your Gen Z leaders you support us wholeheartedly,” they said.
After they vehemently argued that creating a political party is not a priority at this time and that they do not want to be led by anyone, some people criticised them for taking such daring actions.
They asserted that the action was an attempt to deflect Gen Z’s focus and that the government would select and bribe the movement out of the protests.
” Why are you trying to divert the attention of the Gen Z ndio sasa muungane mform group nyinyi ndio mchukuliwe…mnajibrand majina ndio mchukuliwe mpewe favors huko mbele,” a netizen said.
He demanded for an apology before their numbers are spread online ‘wasalimiwe’ by their felow Gen Z for diverting the attention of people and serving their own benefits.

” Nyini vile mmeshikana hivo watch out….do not look for opportunities at the expense of Kenyans. We demand an apology for you guys thinking about a political party at this time instead of the financial bill which brought us to the street in the first place,” he concluded.
Another netizen told them to enjoy their fifteen seconds of fame but they are drawing a line where they start talking about being political leaders.
” Enjoy your fifteen seconds of fame akuna mtu amewakataza, but we are drawing a line apa mahali mmeanza kukuwa extremely audacious by talking about political parties and being leaders,”
She told them that they do not have a leaders and they are doing this protests as a collective group.
