The National Cohesion and Integration Commission (NCIC) has commended Gen Z for embracing a tribeless identity while advocating for reforms in the country.Speaking at a press briefing, NCIC Chairperson Samuel Kobia said the initiative aligns with the commission’s call for a united Kenyan identity that transcends tribal affiliations.
He said the commission has been keenly observing the initiatives taken by Gen Z, and their tribeless stance is particularly encouraging since the commission has long advocated for a Kenya where national identity comes first, followed by other identities.Kobia acknowledged the peaceful nature of the recent demonstrations led by Gen Z, underscoring NCIC’s commitment to promoting social harmony and discouraging divisive rhetoric in Kenya.
Meanwhile, Daadab MP Farah Malim has now been instructed to appear before the NCIC on the 15th of July. This is after he snubbbed summons and failed to show up for questioning yesterday over his inciteful remarks about the ongoing anti-government protests. Maalim requested Chairperson Samuel Kobia to allow him to present himself at his own convenience on Monday next week .
