- Comedian Eric Omondi has been arrested while leading demonstrations outside Parliament buildings in Nairobi.
Omondi was leading a group of well-built, shirtless young men in demonstrations, where they demanded the Government to lower the cost of living.
The youths donning black shorts and bare chests had brought business around parliament to a standstill, with onlookers milling around to watch.
Eric is speaking for so many Kenyans.
Thank you for being so brave.

Are you sure of what you are complaining about the government question, how well up were you on the other leadership get real and be busy to work for your success you can't wait the government to give you what you have not worked for, to all young get busy otherwise you will wait until Christ comes. Don't join the complainers they are not going nowhere get busy n you will see you have wasted alot of time.

Whether or not you like Eric Omondi ... He needs to be commended for this
I really like eric
This is the courage we need from men,I really need this kind of effort to be heavily supported.
This country cannot go on without Eric.He is a movement and should be protected
the country will go on very, very , very fast
Which country we dont care about erick we care about ourselves if he is arrested today will you go to prison to see him.

Kasebe Laka

Wish all youths to open up and join hands to pursue what Erick has started. This country need brave youths like him to protest of the high cost of living. What kind of government do we have that doesn't listen to youths. So sad.
The irony is even the police arresting Eriko wish they could just remove their uniforms and join him,the subject matter inawaaffect sana.
True that
Mbona unasema ukweli jameni.
Exactly
Yup...and it will come to that.
Very true 👍
When injustice is law, rebellion becomes a duty.
This is just but the beginning. Whe life's necessity becomes unbearable or unreachable, man becomes more and more agitated . The government is not taking full responsibility of its citizens
Resistance becomes a calling

Eric is setting a fantastic example for young people everywhere on how to be strong and resilient. Let's join him in his mission and show the world that we can all stand together and make a difference.
Cant you just see what Erick is doing clout chasing everywhere he doesn't care care about high cost of living he is after his own relevance in the media.
What example is this,,,, immature,,

People of Kenya.. the whole world is not safe.. Even in the developed Nations, life has become very expensive... It's good to be heard as youths but do it peacifully. God will make a way for Kenya🙏 Thank Him that He enabled you to overcome corona crisis.
This is not going to stop. Congratulations brave Eric

Just make sure you have bail fee every tine you get arrested. Get arrested 10 times pay 10 times

Pay keen attention to the messaging. You will realise in the next coming days that this is not comedy. Our economy is dead and it needs Jesus.
😂😂😂😂
As kenyans we should come out in large numbers n support Erick..
Now Kenya is getting into Ugandan style when it comes to freedom of speech and expression, no right to demonstrate ,teargas, and others. Thank you Eric for saying a word.
First time I'm viewing Eric Omondi with a serious perspective in our social economic outlook. Yes, there is time for comedy, and time for hardcore issues. Congrats Omondi.
I wish it was bandits being thrown into the police vehicle like that but apparently that's not the case,we should only see this happening in North Rift si Nairobi,picking on the wrong guys
Exactly.. more than 20police arresting a tiny erico.. 😂😂😂😂😂jokers
Picketing is allowed...I don't understand why Erick was arrested.
Well it should be done Laikipia why thieves are
High cost of living doesn't come from the government. Eric should seek intervention 4 God to give rain. The cost of living wil automatically go down.

Eric is one of those rare gems we need, he should be protected by all means, in fact the police should have joined the protest,we re living in a miserable country,but God will take charge,
Erick omondi ni tajiri bt anaona the lives that others live....atleast anajaribu kututetea....thanks Erick...God bless you
Kinachotokea. Kenya. Kinabindi. Kitokeee. Na tanzania. Hali. Ya uchumi. Inazidi kuwa mbaya sana viongozi. Wanafanya. Yao kwa vile. Yao. Wanashiba na wanajilipa mamilioni

Youths deserve to be heard and respected, not silenced or treated unfairly. In Kenya, everyone has the right to peacefully demonstrate their views and beliefs. All voices should be heard and taken into consideration when making decisions that affect the nation. We must recognize that the youth of today are the leaders of tomorrow and work together to ensure they are given the opportunity to make their mark.
Who said so?

You are a great disappointment to the very air you breathe ... you have reached levels of stupidity unmatched by asking that question 😒😒 in itself

Eric has transitioned into a human rights activist
Kweli after Churchill terminated his show😀
He’s not sure who he is or what he wants!!
He may seek asylum or a political seat come 2027 strategy u start early mambo ni kujipanga like Somei Ruto says
But you guys ain't seeing vile mambo ni mbaya ..atleast he has delivered the message hata kama amekamatwa
@@mmomuya1653 kwani ndio mambo yameanza kua mabaya wakati Ruto ako President.. give us a break
these people looking for ways to get asylum 😂😂😂
The guys were calm untill one of the officers pushed Erick
True!
Eric we do good work keep it up
He was sent by the corrupted leaders
Peaceful demo thanks guys
Seeying Eric being thrown that way makes me cry becoz he his protesting yet he can afford the price of living but deed it for the poor eric you will remain a hero forever
Yo! I've never had a solid position on Erick's incidents but this move just made me have a stand.. say all about dude but think of it, he has enough money to live his life? I bet he can at least put food on his table.. but despite that he chose to be at the frontline for many suffering Kenyans.
That's BOLD & BRAVE, thanks eriko... one day people will understand some of your controversies... give it time.
Yes exactly 💯 👏. Bravo .I love the courage in him.
Yah true
There's a catch
He shouldn't be arrested he has rights to demonstrate peaceful just like he's doing. Make food affordable for everyone. Good Job Eric 👏🏿 👍🏿 👌
Mutezi wanyonge ni Mungu ....God bless Eric more many yrs🙏🙏💪🤗
Kudos gentleman,we really appreciate.
Comes up the voice of the voiceless 😥😥😥
God bless you Eric
Well done Eric...you have proved what the COMPANY is all about!!
Thank you for being so brave...🖐
Thank you Eric and team vijana for speaking for us
Brutality!
The ones arresting him already look hungry and suppressed by this harsh economy, they are likely to be surviving on bribes, foolish act of arresting someone who is airing a voice higher than they can!
Imagine
💯
Proud of you eric and the team in kenya ,thank you for rising your voices to help the people
Nipitie kwangu
This is how it starts ..Arresting concerned citizens , Kenyans rise up n do t allow this to become the norm
It started like this in Uganda now No one can say a word!!
I love the courage in this guy Erico🤣🤣🤣 he's fearless..... I mean his courage is incomparable 🤣🤣🤣
I feel ashamed for not participating on this demo.
Let's rise up youth ,if we don't we will be judged by the next generation harshly
Justice foe Eric Omondi
DON'T EXPECT JUSTICE UNDER THE LEADERSHIP YOUR CURRENT PRESIDENT AND THE CHIEF JUSTICE WHO WENT TO MEET THE PRESIDENT OF UGANDA WHERE COURTS ARE CONTROLLED BY ONE FAMILY. I FEEL SAD FOR ALL KENYANS. NEXT TIME VOTE WISELY
2:38 Erick effortlessly threw himself into the back of the Mahindra 😂
😂😂
Erick omondi the man himself I support you my guy....cost of living is high please our President Ruto we love.... we are hustlers.... people cry each and every day because of hunger .... Kenya is our country our only motherland the place where we born ...,. and we are suffering why 😭😭😭😭😭😭😭.
they are in solidarity with their hungry and voiceless brothers and sisters.
True
The're desperate 😅😅
I now understand why some footballers and citizens who seek better growth abroad change their citizenship FOR GOOD... the amount of slow growth in this country is ridiculous, like you have to work thrice as much to get what you dream of and by the time you have what you worked for, you are aging off...to everyone seeking greatness, may it come at the right time. THEY HAVE POWER IN THEIR GUNS, WE HAVE IT IN OUR SPEECH, speak out, it is just one life after all. Nobody ever gets two.
Kenya will only change when people from other tribes rule.the current "tribal shareholders" have messed up our country 😝
Amen Amen Amen
Changing your citizenship is a cowardly thing to do, fight for the country you want, build it from inside
Very true well said
The fighters are few and u know them😥😥😥😥
Am a Nigerian.Eric Omondi is Nnamdi kanu of Kenya.Bravo!Truth cannot be silenced.
I support you Omondi hata hao maisha ni hard kwao lakini tutafanyaje sasa
I didn't see the police men aresting other people like they were targeting Erick Omondi.
Yes. It looks like it. Kenyans have gone through that before, particularly in the '90s'.
There was one who remained with him but they weren't interested in him.
Arrest the ringleader, and the rest will disperse. And disperse they did.
THEY ARE COPING UGANDAN SYSTEM AND PLEASE PRAY FOR HIM BECAUSE THEY MIGHT EVEN POISON HIM BEFORE HE IS LEASED.
@@wetiot your right
My US-born 17-year-old just watched this video with me and asked why the police arrested the protesters if they were assembling peacefully. I looked at him and honestly told him that everything in Kenya is one big joke including the president who prays for God to lift the economy instead of him using political and economic means to solve the countries issues. He looked at time me, smiled, and asked me if I will ever go back to such a messed place. Yes I wil.
Leave alone our president,Kenya needs help from above ,psalm 121.,stop mocking the prayers coz even Annah the barren prayed until the priest thought she's drunk but God intervened.🇰🇪🇰🇪🇰🇪
@@susanmakau7049 lol
@@susanmakau7049 which prayers are you talking about? Didn't you see a pastor collapse after finish ing prayers, infront of your president, and how will you explain the fire that broke out during prayer session the cause of the unknown, is that not enough to tell you God is angry for being mocked?
@@susanmakau7049 *Everything works well for the righteous because they have a blessing.Righteousness here means deep knowledge of science and economics, in addition to knowledge of application of those sciences & experience too. This is the basis for a blessing as you show god that you are using the brain that he gave you to use to solve your social problems. God does not like lazy people who don't use their brains and talents.*
@@susanmakau7049 Hannah prayed but her and Elkanah still had intercourse for the child to be formed in its mother's womb. Prayers alone are not enough dada... We want to see an impact in the economic and political scene that will uplift the lives of all Kenyans!
You can call it clout but atleast the message reached home😂😂😂👍👍👍👍👍
We just need people like him in our country
They are very many, they st ein azimio la umoja
But why arrest him yet this was a peacefull demo😢
The same civil servants that took the oath to serve and protect us , are treating our fellow citizens in inhuman way . The system is rogue , Kenya is a police State .
Very true and well said
Proud of you Kenyans
May God bless renew your strength each and every day Eric.❤
Clearly what was peaceful turned chaotic by the police in uniform and civilian clothing. Their action and decision to apprehend Eric Omondi clearly came from above. Aluta comtinua, Kenyans!
i believe erico is a messanger from above
At least this guy is up for every Kenyan... thumbs up Eric
First time I have watched your clip to the end
Thank you for the courage
Mnataka watu wa 1pack kwa demonstration ama ni ma six pack only
Next tym count me in
Erick speaks for 40million kenyans suffering including me. Thanks mahn
Our kids will sing legendary songs of Eric Omondi. I know we may not see this as a great effort but what he is doing will save the future
I love every part of this. Kudos brother. We're behind you. Feel like a hero there. Kwame
Waaah!
Guys! si i thought on that Maandamano and throwing of stones, i saw more than a 100 gigantic men chanting "Bado mapambano" but within a click of a minute, sijui penye wameenda wakaacha Eric Omondi akihangaika pekee yake😄😄😄
Mmmmmmmh! Kweli hao wanaume wametaili kabisa🤗
Nice one Omondi Africa Mashariki needs strong young men like you Shukran
Those officers are acting like they are not in the same Kenya Eric is fighting for. Like high cost of living is not affecting them too.
Just Imagine
Sheep
I know deep in their hearts the officers wish they could join Akina Erico then they remember they have a payslip to protect.
Walahi
We need to come out in numbers and fight for our rights and for the future of our children..we are suffering and if we continue becoming silent our generation will suffer more..
Eric thanks for standing for others true hero
That was a peaceful picketing that is allowed and recognised by the constitution.
True,but kenya 🇰🇪 is no longer ours all,it's for the afew
