Saba Saba legacy, 25 years on

This week was the 25th anniversary of Saba Saba Day, an important political signpost when Kenyans said unanimously that they wanted the freedom to organise politically, and demanded the re-introduction of multiparty politics.

I recall the day, as well as the drama captured in the following day’s papers. We all remarked, in that dreamy way that only youths can marshal, about the historicity of the day.
