Pigs in Parliament Demo Makes Headlines across the Globe
Yesterday Civil Society activists staged a never-seen-before protest in Kenyan history. The demonstrators went with pigs to parliament to protest MPs pay hike demands. The MPs want the Sh850,000 pay for the 10th Parliament reinstated because, they claim, the Sh532,000 set by the commission is too little.
The angry protesters dropped piglets outside the parliament building as part of their protest. This issue has not had the animal rights activists come out in anger over the use of the swine but ‘the pig factor’ in the demonstrations also made headlines across the globe. Take a look;
