Kenyans Storm Tanzania Border

Kenyans gathered at the Isebania border on Oct. 18, 2025, after Tanzanian authorities arrested opposition leader John Heche, CHADEMA deputy party leader, who was traveling to attend Raila Odinga’s funeral. Protesters stormed the Tanzanian immigration offices, demanding his release, and Heche was freed later that day. The crowd reportedly escorted him to Bondo for the funeral. CHADEMA said the arrest aimed to block party members from attending the event.
