A tweet from the Directorate of Criminal Investigations (DCI) on how a young American girl filmed a police officer pushing his knee on George Floyd’s neck causing his death has irked Kenyans.
In the tweet, DCI said Darnella Frazier was only 17 years old when she witnessed a US Police officer breaking the law and acted by filming the then Minneapolis Police officer Derek Chauvin, who was last week convicted over Floyd’s murder.
DCI appealed to Kenyans to report crimes happening near them using Frazier’s example, but that did not go down well with Kenyans.
