In the fair kingdom of Kenya, where the sun ever so brightly shines upon the grasslands, a great tempest hath arisen amongst her citizens. A multitude of voices, united in their discontent against new tax laws, have begun to clamor for change. The fury of these good people has reached such a fever pitch that it has spilled out into the streets of Nairobi, the kingdom's resplendent capital.
In an unprecedented act of public defiance, the protesters have taken to the Parliament building and set it ablaze in a searing demonstration of their unhappiness. This act of rebellion against the tax laws is as daring as it is dangerous, and it has left the citizens of Nairobi quaking in their boots. The flames that engulfed the Parliament building are symbolic of the anger that simmers throughout the kingdom.
But alas! As if to fan the flames of this conflagration even more, the protestors have turned to the very symbol of the power they seek to challenge: they have stolen the ceremonial mace from inside the Parliament. This hallowed item, a symbol of the authority wielded by elected officials, has been wrenched from its place of honor and brandished high in the air as a rallying point for the dissenting voices.
The theft of the mace has only served to further incite the anger of those assembled, and they have turned their ire against one another. The riotous mayhem that now plagues the streets of Nairobi is a lamentable sight indeed: what began as a protest against perceived injustice has devolved into a violent clash between citizens.
In these chaotic clashes, ten souls have found themselves meeting their maker far too soon. Over fifty others have been grievously wounded in the crossfire, their bodies bearing the scars of a conflict they did not seek. The once resplendent streets of Nairobi are now stained with blood and tears as law enforcement opens fire on the dissenters.
The kingdom's leaders now stand at a crossroads: how to address this uprising without further inciting the ire of their subjects? Can they find a way to mollify their citizens without seeming weak or pandering to the mob? The Llama News will be watching closely, for it is clear that events in Kenya have reached a boiling point.
