The video discusses a violent incident in Kenya where 12 people died in attacks against law enforcement just before the general elections. The attacks are suspected to be linked to a regional secessionist group, MRC. The video provides historical context, referencing the 2007 elections that led to ethnic conflicts and over 1,100 deaths due to alleged electoral fraud. Despite these tensions, the current elections are proceeding more peacefully in most areas. Key candidates include outgoing Prime Minister Rayla Odinga and Auguro Keniata, who faces international charges for his alleged role in past election violence. Over 14 million Kenyans are voting to renew the National Assembly and elect a Senate for the first time.
