In a fiery statement, Omanga declared, “From what I observed in Kitengela today, revolution si tafadhali. No fear, no retreat. Kaongo aende akiendanga.” Her comments appeared to signal defiance and unwavering resolve amid the growing political tension surrounding recent gatherings in the area.
The phrase “revolution si tafadhali” loosely translates to “a revolution is not a favor,” suggesting that change, in her view, must be pursued firmly rather than politely requested. The slogan “no fear, no retreat” further underscored a confrontational tone, often used in political mobilization to rally supporters.
While Omanga did not provide detailed context in the statement itself, her remarks come at a time when political leaders across the divide are sharpening their messaging ahead of future contests. Kitengela has recently featured in political headlines following claims and counterclaims about public meetings and alleged disruptions.
Observers note that such language, while energizing to supporters, also reflects the increasingly charged atmosphere in Kenya’s political landscape. As rival camps trade accusations and rally their bases, calls for calm and adherence to peaceful political engagement remain equally important.
With political realignments gradually taking shape, statements like Omanga’s illustrate how leaders are positioning themselves within broader narratives of change, resistance, and accountability in the country’s evolving political conversation.
