Former National Football League (NFL) star Rickey Bolden has called on Kenya's leadership to apologise to Gen Zs, following the June 2024 anti-government protests that brought the nation to the brink.
The American preacher and motivational speaker, who headlined this year's National Prayer Breakfast, said such an apology would be a key step toward rebuilding strained relations and trust between young Kenyans and the country's leadership. "When we talk about rebuilding relationships; wouldn't it be beautiful if leaders would stand up and say to our Gen Zs, we had you arrested and we know that had to be traumatising and we are sorry?
We shut down the internet, and we know that's your primary source of communication and we are sorry.
Now we want to bring you to the table so you can have a voice," said Bolden.
