“Throughout 2011, Kenyans have battled with rising prices of food and fuel, especially unga, or maize flour, the staple food for millions. IRIN’s new film, Kenya’s Unga Revolution, follows activist Emily Kwamboka as she takes to the streets to demand the government do something to help address the plight of ordinary Kenyans.” – Youtube (ONEWorldTV)

It’s a shame to see that not everyone is treated equal; with equal power.  It is a struggle for the people focused in the video to have to live day-to-day with rising prices; which affects their daily livelihood.   Practising their rights and freedom of speech to their government.  The locals had their voices shun away, and governments showed no remorse and continue to have their own self-interests impacting their people.
