    “Saba Saba Is a Flame of Freedom, Not a License for Chaos” – Veteran Leader Speaks Out Mukhtasari Saba Saba marked as a day of sacrifice, not violence 7/7/1990 remembered for bold stand at Kamukunji Grounds Kenneth Matiba and Charles Rubia hailed as freedom icons Call to honour, not distort, the spirit of Saba Saba Warning against turning peaceful remembrance into clashes Not a Day for Violence A respected political elder has spoken firmly ahead of Monday’s Saba Saba commemorations, urging Kenyans to treat the day with the respect it deserves. He reminded the public that Saba Saba is not meant for riots, tire burnings, or street battles with police. “This day is soaked in the blood of patriots. It’s not a license for chaos,” he said. The True Meaning of 7/7 Recalling the historic events of July 7, 1990, the veteran pointed to Kamukunji Grounds as the cradle of Kenya’s multiparty revolution. He emphasized that the fight was for democracy, not destruction. “I didn’t sit with Kenneth Matiba and Charles Rubia to start a war — we sparked a revolution for dignity and pluralism,” he stated. Remember, Don’t Hijack He warned against using the occasion to incite violence or politicize the memory of those who fought for Kenya’s democratic freedoms. The struggle, he said, was already won at Kamukunji — now it’s time to guard that legacy. “The true battlefield was then. Today, we honour. Let us not twist Saba Saba into a circus of noise.” Honour the Flame, Not the Fight Calling for peace and reflection, the leader stressed that the true spirit of Saba Saba lives in the history and sacrifice — not in running battles or social media outrage. “The flame was lit at Kamukunji, not on the tarmac. Let’s keep it burning, not turn it into smoke.”
