A protester reacts in front of burning cars as clashes erupt between demonstrators and police during a protest over the death of Kenyan blogger Albert Ojwang, who died in police custody, as the government presents the 2025-2026 budget statement in downtown Nairobi on June 12, 2025. [AFP]

Every so often an event stirs the conscience of a country differently from similar occurrences. This week’s death of blogger and teacher Albert Ojwang is such an occurrence.

As some politicians have argued, with shocking insensitiveness, he is not the first to die in police custody. Yet in previous occasions, there was not the level of fury evident this week.
