A democratic country should *celebrate not criminalize* citizens who help their neighbors understand what their representative government is planning to do, how it might affect them, and how to contact that government. #FreeRoseNjeri

What we know about Rose Njeri’s arrest, the contentious Finance Bill rejection tool Kenyan software developer Rose Njeri was arrested at her Nairobi apartment on Friday, May 30, after she shared a link to an online tool built to facilitate public objections to the 2025 Finance Bill.

I learned about Njeri from The Continent. The BBC and Citizen Digital have also reported #FreeRoseNjeri:

Rose Njeri did the kind of civic tech development that Americans do at workshops, talk up at conferences, and encourage college students to do in their free time: she built an tool that helped Kenyans understand a bill and write to Parliament about it. She was arrested last week. #FreeRoseNjeri

Keep an eye on Kenya too!

Activists are still being arrested or disappeared for speaking out.

Most of this is ignored by mainstream EU media.

This is where social media can actually make a difference.

Let’s amplify these stories and fight for activists’ safety!

You use up a huge chunk of the taxpayer's money to pay your advisors, yet they can't tell you you're not thinking straight conducting illegal arrests and letting the abductions keep on happening

C'est cet appauvrissement qui provoque des migrations de travail très dangereuses notamment celles qui nourrissent les réseaux de la #domesticité au Moyen-Orient par exemple

Kenyans we deserve better!

Honestly Ruto how petty can you be to arrest a young girl who is just being a law abiding citizen and advocating for good governance? Why is your ego so fragile? Can you just leave Rose Njeri alone? Nothing will change the fact that we’ll KICK YOU OUT OF POWER IN 2027! #RutoMustGo #FreeRoseNjeri

Why arrest someone for creating a Website to help others understand the finance bill?!
Shows how much impunity is in that Bill and we already Reject..
