Source: Facebook Did Samidoh support protesters? The protests, planned for several parts of the country, are in remembrance of the lives lost in 2024 when protesters accessed Parliament while opposing the Finance Bill. A section of protesters is targeting to occupy State House, Nairobi, amid warnings from the police. Numerous celebrities have expressed their support for the protesters, with some even planning to join them in the streets.
On Tuesday, June 24, Samidoh shared a photo from the US, while seemingly supporting the protests despite being a police officer. Samidoh wore a shirt with the American flag colours and a cowboy hat. He proudly carried the Kenyan flag while flashing his signature smile at the camera. “The youngest winds carry the oldest truths! Victory is certain,” he declared. Kenyans tried to decipher the photo, with some noticing that he held the Kenyan flag upside down. They wondered whether it had a deeper meaning. Here are some of the reactions from Kenyans. Anthony Anthony: “Flag upside down.” BRÃYÕ Wáñjohi: “I am here to remind you, just carry your salt in your pocket tomorrow.” Jones Munga: “My grandmother is still questioning me, who is this Lagat?” Liz Alex: “Two flags, it is alright.” Mary Shiko: “Son of Nyandarua.” Spunkchaze Crespo Njeri: “Did you hold the flag upside down intentionally? What’s the message?”
Kip Aidden “Let me take the last supper meanwhile, as we wait for tomorrow.” Paul Njoroge: “Those in uniform know what it means when the flag is upside down.” Mary Munyungu: “Samidoh, the Kenyan flag is upside down.”
