Who Killed Amollo? Cleophas Malala’s New Play Sparks Fresh Political Storm

Описание: Cleophas Malala is back at the centre of Kenya’s cultural and political debate. After the explosive fallout surrounding Echoes of War, the Democracy for Citizens Party Deputy Leader has announced a brand-new theatrical production titled Who Killed Amollo? — a play designed strictly for adult audiences and set for a commercial theatre stage.

Speaking on Radio Generation, Malala confirmed that the new production is separate from Echoes of War, the controversial play that was previously banned after being prepared for performance by Butere Girls High School students. But while Malala insists the title is merely a name, his historical references and timing have reignited intense national discussion, especially following President William Ruto’s nomination of Mama Ida Odinga as Kenya’s Ambassador and Permanent Representative to UNEP.

In this video, we break down Malala’s announcement, revisit the Echoes of War controversy, examine the historical claims he made on air, and fact-check the assertions surrounding Tom Mboya, Pamela Mboya, and UNEP. We also explore why theatre has once again become a battleground for politics, memory, and power in Kenya.
