Animal Rights Activists Come Out In Anger Over The Boniface Mwangi Protest: Occupy Parliament

Yesterday, Boniface Mwangi led a protest dubbed Occupy Parliament which was demonstrating against the scheme our Members of Parliament have hatched to increase their remunerations. Read about that protest here.

During the protest, a pig was slaughtered. This was to add dramatic if not shock effect to the protest and it was a resounding success if that was the aim… Actually, the protest may have unwittingly become a victim of it’s own success: animal rights activists came out from every nook and cranny to decry the treatment of the pigs.

From social media; Facebook and Twitter the self appointed animal rights activists begun beating their drums claiming that the animals weren’t humanely treated -oh the irony and hypocrisy of that statement.

And this morning, Maina and King’ang’i are discussing the manner in which the pigs were treated and slaughtered and alot of the callers are appalled. Tune in to the show to hear the various opinions on the same.
