Malala said police showed up at the school to stop him from helping students practice their play "Echoes of War." He wrote and directed this play performed by Butere Girls High School. Officials had banned the play earlier, but a court said they could perform it at Lions Junior School on Thursday. "Other schools can practice, why not Butere Girls? They locked those students inside like prisoners," Malala told a police officer at Kirobon Girls. Soon after, Citizen TV showed tear gas clouds and police cars as reporters ran away when things turned ugly. Some news people got hurt during this chaos. The Kenya National Drama Festival runs from April 7 to 15 this year. Its theme talks about using technology to grow talent and teach good values. The 63rd festival started well at Melvin Jones International School, with the government asking artists to make money from their talents. Basic Education leader Julius Bitok opened the event on April 7. He asked young people to create positive stuff on social media instead of "abusing science and technology" all the time. Students also perform plays at Menengai High School. "Echoes of War" examines modern issues like technology, government work, and fighting for rights—topics that matter to Gen Z youth. The story takes place in a country healing after a war, where young citizens lead rebuilding efforts. It questions how online spaces affect government and how young people can change society.
