(OOC: For all intents and purposes, Moskilde is now Yairobi pending its official change by the admins)
Outskirts of Memen
Region of Yhana, Yairobi
The tarmac wore thin this far north; the last sign of a major road could be no less than forty kilometres by now, and all around them the sun battered plains played a waltz with their sense of direction. It was a nerve racking journey, the dirt tracks that fed into Yhana were a gateway into the melting pot of Yairobi’s rural communities. One thing was certain, they were a people fifty years behind their time, stubborn, religious, strongly set in their ways, and unreasonably hostile to change. It was a trip long overdue.
Contee had made it clear that the rabble up north would have to be dealt with, one way or another, but with the chairmen’s bold statement yesterday, and his declaration to the world that the Proletariat State would be free of the very oppression that defined the revolution, he could hardly be seen to condone martial law.
Instead, he sent Nadir Adeniji, a junior aid eager to impress his talents on the party at large. Little did he realise, the farmers of Yhama were not as accommodating to the ideals of Contee’s Yairobi as Proletaria’s factory workers. The convoy arrived in the dusty city of Memen, one covered truck carrying troops lead the procession while another two followed the junior aid’s car from behind. Arriving today was no coincidence, it was a market day, and the stalls were sprawling with hundreds of people from across Yhana and beyond bartering for goods. The idea was to address the masses, and this was the day to do it. The soldiers quickly pulled together a podium from the cargo they had transported with the trucks, before Nadir, motioning to the squad’s captain to remain vigilant, took to the stage and began to read from the party charter.
