Umukuru wa polisi yo mu mujyi wa Atlanta muri leta ya Georgia muri Leta Zunze Ubumwe z’Amerika yeguye ku mirimo ye nyuma yaho Umunyamerika ukomoka muri Afurika w’umugabo witwa Rayshard Brooks arasiwe na Polisi bikamuviramo urupfu.
Rayshard Brooks w’imyaka 27 y’amavuko, yari yasinziririye mu modoka ye imbere ya “restaurant” aho abakiliya bahabwa ibyo bifuza batarinze gusohoka mu modoka. Abategetsi bavuga yarashwe n’umupolisi mu bushyamirane bwabaye ku wa gatanu nimogoroba.
Keisha Lance Bottoms, “Mayor w’umujyi wa Atlanta”, yavuze ko Erika Shields, wari ukuriye polisi muri uwo mujyi, yamugejejeho ubwegure bwe ku munsi w’ejo ku wa gatandatu.
Abigaragambya i Atlanta bigabije imihanda mu mpera y’iki cyumweru basaba ko hagira igikorwa kubera urupfu rwa Bwana Brooks. Ku mugoroba w’ejo ku wa gatandatu, abigaragambya bafunze umuhanda munini uzwi nka Interstate-75 w’i Atlanta.

‘Mayor’ Bottoms, yanasabye ko umupolisi wagize uruhare mu rupfu rwa Bwana Brooks yirukanwa ku kazi ke.
Byagenze gute ku mugoroba wo kuwa Gatanu?
Urwego rushinzwe iperereza muri leta ya Georgia (ruzwi mu mpine y’Icyongereza nka GBI) ruri gukora iperereza ku rupfu rwa Bwana Brooks. Ruri no kureba amashusho yafashwe na ‘camera’ icunga umutekano yari imbere muri ‘restaurant’ The Wendy’s, ndetse runareba amashusho y’abavuga ko babonye uko byagenze.
Urwego GBI ruvuga ko polisi yari yatabajwe ngo igere kuri iyo ‘restaurant’ kuko Bwana Brooks yari yasinziririye mu modoka ye, bigatuma abandi bakoresha uwo muhanda bagana iyo ‘restaurant’ babura aho baca.
Nkuko polisi ibivuga, Bwana Brooks yanze gutabwa muri yombi nyuma yaho ibizamini byo kureba ingano y’inzoga yanyweye bigaragaje ko yarengeje urugero rw’iyemewe ku muntu utwaye imodoka. Uwigaragambya ahagaze hafi ya ‘restaurant’ The Wendy’s i Atlanta.

Iyo raporo igira iti:”Umupolisi yahise arashisha imbunda ye, arasa Brooks”.
Mu mashusho yatanzwe n’ababibonye, Bwana Brooks agaragara ari hasi ku mbuga iri imbere y’iyo ‘restaurant’, ashyamiranye n’abapolisi babiri.
Ashikuza intwaro y’umupolisi itera kugagara k’umubiri, agacika abo bapolisi, akiruka. Undi mupolisi aza gushobora gukoresha iyo ntwaro igagaza (izwi nka ‘Taser’) iri kuri Brooks, nuko abo bapolisi bakiruka bahunga uwafataga amashusho.
Humvikana amasasu, nuko Bwana Brooks akagaragara arambaraye hasi.
Yajyanwe ku bitaro ariko aza gupfa nyuma yaho. Umwe muri abo bapolisi yavuwe igikomere yagiriye muri ubwo bushyamirane. Abigaragambya ejo ku wa gatandatu bateraniye rwagati mu mujyi wa Atlanta nyuma y’urupfu rwa Brooks.
Ibiro by’umushinjacyaha byo mu karere ka Fulton nkuko BBC dukesha iyi nkuru ibitangaza, biri gukora irindi perereza ku byabaye, nkuko byabitangaje mu itangazo byashyize ahagaragara.

Umunyamategeko Chris Stewart yagize ati: “Ntabwo ushobora kurasa umuntu keretse agutunze imbunda”.
Ku munsi w’ejo ku wa gatandatu, Bwana Brooks yateganyaga kujyana umwana we w’umukobwa wujuje imyaka umunani y’amavuko kwizihiza iyo sabukuru ye akina umukino wo kwinyereza ku rubura, nkuko abo banyamategeko b’umuryango we babivuga.
Uku kubaye kurasa kwa 48 kurimo umupolisi uru rwego rw’iperereza ryo muri leta ya Georgia rukozeho iperereza kugeza ubu muri uyu mwaka, nkuko bitangazwa na televiziyo ABC News. Kurasa 15 muri uko kwavuyemo impfu.
Ikinyamakuru The New York Times gitangaza ko hari abigaragambya bateraniye hanze ya ‘restaurant’ The Wendy’s ku wa gatanu. Abigaragambya bongeye gutera rwagati mu mujyi wa Atlanta ejo ku wa gatandatu. Amashusho yo mu myigaragambyo yerekana abigaragambya bafite ibyapa biriho izina rya Brooks ndetse n’ibirango byuko ubuzima bw’abirabura bufite agaciro.
Abantu bo muri Atlanta bari basanzwe bari mu myigaragambyo yatewe n’urupfu rwa George Floyd.
Bwana Floyd, wari ufite imyaka 46, yapfuye ku itariki ya 25 Gicurasi 2020 nyuma yaho umupolisi wo mu mujyi wa Minneapolis muri leta ya Minnesota amutsikamiye ku ijosi akoresheje ivi mu gihe cy’iminota irenga umunani. Uwo mupolisi yirukanwe ku kazi ndetse aregwa ubwicanyi bwo mu cyiciro cya kabiri.

Kenya’s pivotal role in the UN 2030 agenda for sustainable development and SGDs a Boon to the United
Kenya is persuaded that global challenges are only surmountable if the world’s rules based multilateral system is deployed in a manner that attracts consensus not only in the appreciation of the challenges, but also in the evolution of practical response strategies.
The 10-point Agenda that Kenya promises to champion in the Security Council is largely premised on the SDGs. The process leading to the adoption of the SDG’s was multilateral diplomacy at its best demonstrated by building of bridges between diametrically opposing opinions resulting in some of the most profound commitments ever by Member States in the history of the United Nations. Kenya was at the very centre of this process.
In 2013-2014, the world entrusted Kenya and Hungary with co-facilitation of the international negotiation process that created the global sustainable development goals (SDGs).
The mandate was clear but the task was not easy. Collecting and collating ideas from all stakeholders and refining them into simple consumable thoughts was just one part. Moderating the concepts and diverse schools of thought and building consensus around them was another critical part.
Most importantly was to provide sound leadership to guide the parties navigate the complex terrain of positions held by different countries and groupings.
The end of the SDGs formation ushered in deliberations on the Post 2015 development Agenda in September, 2014. Because of its impressive leadership in the SDGs process, Kenya was again appointed by the President of the 71st session of UN General Assembly to co- facilitate the 2030 UN Agenda design process together with Ireland. The process successfully culminated in the adoption of the 2030 UN Agenda for sustainable development at a summit in New York in September, 2015.
Subsequently, and as a follow up, Kenya has, and continues to work on global multilateral projects, such as the Sustainable Blue Economy Conference with Japan and Canada, and many others on various issues of interest and concern, ranging from climate change, among others, to the International Conference on Population 2 Development (ICPD), co-hosted in November 2019 with UNFPA and Denmark. These milestones are a seminal legacy of Kenya’s great multilateralism spirit.
Kenya’s skills in multilateral diplomacy, as demonstrated in the SDG process, SBEC and others, will be exemplified in the Security Council in at least three ways:
First, Kenya will bring on board consensus building capabilities, more so within the context of unprecedented challenges occasioned by the global COVID-19 pandemic and other existential threats.
Second, the Council will benefit from Kenya’s objectivity and trustworthiness which is necessary particularly in helping countries in conflict to arrive at common understanding of various issues.
Third, Kenya’s consistency will bring in an element of certainty particularly on any Kenya-led agenda. These three qualities are crucial for building peace and security in our world. Kenya’s leadership in multilateral diplomacy has stood out even during these extraordinary times of global COVID-19 pandemic.
For instance, President Uhuru Kenyatta, who is the current chair of the Organization of African, Caribbean and Pacific States and a member of the Bureau of African Union Heads of State and Government, has been engaging world leaders and institutions in proffering solutions for concerted response measures to the COVID-19 pandemic. He hosted the First Extra Ordinary Summit of the OACPS on 3rd June 2020 under the theme “Transcending the COVID-19 Pandemic:
Building Resilience through Global Solidarity” whose focus was addressing current and post COVID-19 challenges. Additionally, Kenya has initiated many webinars and virtual meetings at technical and ministerial levels. The SDGs/2030 Agenda process is only one of many instances that show cases Kenya’s leadership in multilateral diplomacy.
The country has demonstrated thought and practical leadership in many other areas which will be useful in the pursuit of the 10 point agenda once in the Council. As a proven team player and stickler of a rules based multilateralism as well as its rich experience, Kenya is a safe pair of hands and stands ready to deliver on its promise as a non-permanent member of the United Nations Security Council. Kenya is ready to serve.
