The incident, which was captured on video and widely shared online, showed a tense moment as the activist tried to address the crowd before being overwhelmed by chants of “Enda home.”
In the clip, several youths are heard dismissing him and questioning his credibility. Some accused him of betraying the very movement that once propelled him into the national spotlight.
McOure rose to prominence during the Gen Z-led demonstrations that shook the country in 2024, where he was viewed by many as one of the bold young voices speaking against government policies.
However, his political journey later took a different turn after he associated himself with the Orange Democratic Movement and began working closely with opposition leader Raila Odinga.
His decision to align with established political figures appears to have unsettled some of his former supporters, especially young Kenyans who remain wary of mainstream political parties.
During the confrontation, the crowd’s frustration was evident as they insisted he leave the area. McOure eventually walked away without addressing them further.
The incident has since sparked mixed reactions online, with some defending his right to participate in politics while others argue that he has lost touch with the grassroots movement that once supported him.
The episode reflects the growing political awareness among young Kenyans and the high expectations they place on leaders who claim to represent their interests.
