Barack Obamas Sister, Auma Obama, Hit With Tear Gas During Live Interview Amid Protests In Kenya – imdb

Auma Obama, the half-sister of former President Barack Obama, was hit with tear gas during a live interview amid the protests in Nairobi, Kenya.

On June 25, CNN International correspondent Larry Madowo spoke with Auma during violent protests in Kenya, which included police firing live rounds and tear gas on protesters attempting to storm Parliament to protest legislation known as Finance Bill 2024.

The bill would raise an additional $2.7 billion in taxes at a time when many Kenyan citizens are struggling with poverty.

At least five people were killed in clashes with police, and dozens more had been injured.

Im here because look at whats happening, Auma told Madowo. Young Kenyans, who are demonstrating for their rights, theyre demonstrating with flags and banners.

I cant even see anymore! she added. Theyre being tear-gassed!

She started coughing along with the other activists around her while tear gas filled the air.
