Kenya’s Gen Z is set to play a decisive role in the 2027 presidential race, and politicians are already pulling out all the stops to win their attention.
Former Interior CS Fred Matiang’i is the latest to make headlines after a video of him attempting popular Gen Z dance moves at a campaign rally went viral.
Though his rhythm appeared slightly off, his effort drew plenty of reactions online. One cheeky netizen quipped that Matiang’i “dances internally,” a comment that has since been widely shared.
The clip quickly turned into meme material, with many praising his attempt while others poked fun at his moves.
Whether he nailed the choreography or not, Matiang’i managed to capture the spotlight — a reminder that in today’s politics, even a misstep can be a smart move when Gen Z is watching.
