Octopizzo was among the protestors who went to the U.S embassy in Nairobi to protest over the killing of one George Floyd by a policeman in Minneapolis.
George Floyd’s death was captured live on video and ever since his passing, there has been an international uproar on racism with protestors from different countries marching to protest over the brutal killing that black people have been going through.
Floyd, a 46-year-old black American man, died on Monday, May 25th, in Minneapolis after a police officer, Derek Chauvin put his knee on his neck for nearly 10 minutes in an incident captured on camera.
Octopizzo who is known for always speaking against the injustice in the country was a part of the protestors who went to the American Embassy in Nairobi yesterday.
