“It has come to our attention that Rigathi Gachagua has set up operation of mayhem against Azimio La Umoja protest Rallies scheduled to take place in Nairobi tomorrow.

Earlier today, the Inspector General of Police Japhet Koome had issued a stern warning that anyone found disrupting law and order and or participating in the demos will be dealt with accordingly.

However, the Azimio La Umoja leader rubbished the statements, daring the Police boss to arrest him.

Demonstrations enter the second with Opposition calling on the government to lower the cost of living, open the servers and stop the reconstitution of IEBC without consultations with involved parties.
