Social commentator Joakim has sparked fresh debate with a controversial call to action: after Sabasaba protests, he wants Kenyans to peacefully occupy politicians’ homes — not with violence, but with appetite, to show just how tough life has become under the current economy.
Highlights:
- Joakim wants Kenyans to visit leaders’ homes after Sabasaba to eat and highlight economic hardship.
- He insists the action should remain non-violent and symbolic.
- The idea is to show leaders firsthand how ordinary citizens are suffering.
Main Story:
As the country braces for potential demonstrations during the annual Sabasaba protest day, Joakim has introduced a provocative idea that’s quickly grabbing attention online.
The outspoken figure is urging Kenyans not just to take to the streets — but to go a step further. He’s calling on citizens to peacefully walk into the homes of political leaders after Sabasaba, sit down, and eat. His aim? To make a bold, non-violent statement about the rising cost of living.
Joakim emphasized that his suggestion isn’t about chaos or destruction. Instead, it’s a symbolic act meant to highlight the disconnection between struggling citizens and the political elite.
He argued that many leaders seem untouched by the economic challenges facing millions of Kenyans — from skyrocketing food prices to unbearable taxes. By “eating” at their homes, Joakim believes leaders might finally feel the weight of the suffering they often ignore.
This call comes as Kenyans grapple with ongoing economic frustration, compounded by recent tax hikes and a weakening shilling. Many have taken to social media to vent, and Joakim’s radical proposal seems to echo a growing sense of desperation among the youth.
Whether his idea gains traction or not, it clearly reflects rising anger — and the lengths people are now willing to consider to get their message across.
If leaders won’t come to the people, Joakim suggests the people might just show up for dinner — and a message.
