  FROM BLOOD PARLIAMENT TO TUKO KADI: Ademba Allans on Kenya’s Youth & Our Power 03.09.2026 1h 11min

  On this episode of Mantalk, we sit down with Ademba Allans to unpack his journey from documenting the events of Kenya’s 2024 protests footage that would later feature in the BBC’s Blood Parliament documentary to becoming a voice for youth civic participation through Tuko Kadi.We talk about the risks he faced, including security threats and an alleged kidnapping attempt, and how those experiences shaped his understanding of what it means to speak up.But more importantly, we ask: what does Kenyan politics actually mean to young people?Where is our power? What is our responsibility? And what happens when young Kenyans realise that our significance isn’t just in protesting, but in participating, organising and deciding what comes next?A conversation about fear, courage, politics, purpose and finding our power as a generation
