A video of a police officer crying his heart out has gone viral while promising to resign as a police officer after his blood brother was found to be among those shot in yesterday’s Finance Bill protests.
Speaking on the viral video, the police officer accused the government of the shot that killed his brother and claimed it was time for him to resign from his job after his colleagues took his brother out.

According to the officer, he was ready to surrender his police attire back and quit the service since police officers were no longer undertaking their role of protecting human lives.
“Let me go to Kenyatta Hospital, follow up if it’s my blood brother then go remove the uniform and give it back to them,” said the officer while crying.
Reports indicate that the officer’s brother was among the Gen Z protesters who invaded parliament but unfortunately, he was shot outside parliament by Police officers who were overwhelmed by the crowds.
In what seemed to be tactical killings, around ten people were confirmed dead by the Kenya Red Cross with several others sustaining serious injuries during the attempt to invade parliament that was successful.
The identity of the brother of the police officer is yet to be revealed but reports indicate that the officer proceeded to Kenyatta Hospital for identification and confirmation. The media is yet to reach him for further details.
