Lifestyle influencer and content creator Gloria Ntazola has stirred controversy online after openly declaring she will not participate in the ongoing protests sweeping across Kenya.<\/p>\n
In a series of unfiltered Instagram Stories, Gloria cited fear, mistrust, and a sense of futility as reasons for her decision, warning her followers of the dangers of taking to the streets.<\/p>\n
\u201cI am not going to save Kenya. I can\u2019t die. This government will kill you. Stay home,\u201d she said bluntly, her words underscored by visible frustration and anxiety.<\/p>\n
Her remarks come as thousands of mostly Gen Z Kenyans continue to rally across the country, calling for greater political accountability, transparency, and urgent economic reforms. While many public figures have joined or supported the movement, Gloria made it clear she would not be among them.<\/p>\n
\u201cLet me be honest\u2014there\u2019s no winning against the government. Just accept that it\u2019s bad, and move on,\u201d she said in one post.<\/p>\n
Ntazola, known for her content around lifestyle and self-improvement, explained that her stance was not out of indifference but rooted in fear and personal survival. Referring to past cases of police violence and deaths during protests, she described the risk as too great.<\/p>\n
\u201cI will never save Kenya. I\u2019m just trying to survive. I can barely put food on the table,\u201d she said. \u201cYou\u2019ll go out, get killed, be buried, and people will move on. Stay home.\u201d<\/p>\n
Her comments have divided opinion online. Some applauded her candour and echoed her fears about state violence, while others accused her of promoting passivity and discouraging collective action.<\/p>\n
Despite the backlash, Gloria acknowledged the bravery of those participating in the protests\u2014even as she reiterated her decision to sit out.<\/p>\n
\u201cI respect those on the frontlines,\u201d she concluded, \u201cbut I\u2019m not ready to become another statistic.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
