On Madaraka Day, President Uhuru Kenyatta took to the podium at Uhuru Gardens to address the nation, but his speech was cut short by dozens of angry Kenyans who walked out in protest.

Security officers appeared unfazed by the sudden departure, leaving the reason behind unclear. However, rumors suggest that the group was hired to support Deputy President William Ruto, who was unexpectedly left out of the speaking lineup.
