In the text,'Betrayal in the City',by Francis Imbuga. oppression is perpetrated by the government and individuals to innocent citizens.This brings about suffering to the victims of the vice.
The government of Kafira oppresses University students. Adika is short dead in a riot / demonstration against the employment of foreign expatriates.During the funeral students are not allowed to carry the coffin and that the ceremony was not supposed to take more than ten minutes.
The government instills fear among citizens,Beggars do not see the need to protest.Regina has given up the fight on taking her brother Mosese out of jail after Boss tried to rape her.
The government denies innocent citizens their rights. Doga and Nina are disallowed to carry out the shaving ceremony at the grave side of Adika. Mulili does not want to lose the piece of land promised by Boss and therefore,denies them from performing the rite.When they insist on performing,they are both killed. Kabito is denied the milk tender in favor of Mulili,later kabito is killed.
The government eliminates rebel citizens. Kabito is killed in an 'accident'owing to an earlier disagreement with Mulili.Doga and Nina are killed for opposing the government of the day.
