They wore Keffiyeh which is a symbol of the Palestinians and held flags of Palestine in support of the movement. Banners were hung demonstrating support for Palestine and condemning the acts of the Israeli regime with different messages such as, “Stop war, free Palestine. ” Save Palestine.” The hall was decorated with Kenyan and Palestinian Flag Colours.

An activist from the Christian community urged people to boycott all organizations supporting Israel and said that by buying from them, we people fund the genocide in Gaza since these organizations are financing the equipment being used against Palestinians.

Sheikh Muhammad Mwega, a Producer and Shia scholar who was among the speakers quoted a verse from the holy Qur’an,” Surely God does not change the condition of a people until they change the condition of themselves.” And congratulated the resistance for standing firm against oppression. He further stated that what is happening in Palestine is an Injustice against the whole of humanity, if we fail to stand against it and change the situation, it will grow and come to our doorsteps. When the Zionists obliterate Palestine, they will come for all of us.

”Sheikh Abdul Haneen Abubakar explained the establishment of Israel on Palestinian soil. The United Nations Divided Palestine into Jewish and Palestinian Arab States, Israel gradually confiscated the Land of the Palestinians and thus expanded their occupation territory Israel is an Apartheid state because it does not respect International Law. It has 28 violations of International Law. Israel's settlement is Illegal, Israel's taking of Palestinian land is illegal, Israel is practising ethnic cleansing, and Israel is an apartheid state which is also illegal. These are just but a few examples.

All these raise the question, why does Israel not respect international Laws? Scholars say it is because of the power imbalances in the Security Council.
