There is a troubling new brand of politics taking root in the Mountain. Intimidation, threats and fear.
Last night, I had to help evacuate TWENTY UDA mobilizers from Rurii, Ol Kalou. They were so shaken that their only request was to spend the night at a police station, believing it was the only place they would be safe.
I have since arranged and paid for hotel accommodation for them, where they remain as they await calm.
This is not who we are.
No Kenyan should live in fear because of their political beliefs. Democracy thrives on persuasion, not intimidation, on ideas, not threats.
I urge the Police Service to move swiftly against those instigating violence, issuing threats, or terrorizing fellow citizens.
The law must protect every Kenyan equally.
Elections should never turn neighbours into enemies. We can compete fiercely at the ballot, shake hands afterwards, and continue building our communities together.
Hii siasa ya vitisho na kuuza uoga tuachane nayo.
We beat Jofri in other by-elections we embraced those who lost, why should anyone be chased because they disagreed and lost on the ballot?
Apana.
With Kisumu-Busia and Rironi-Mau Summit-Eldoret-Malaba set for construction, we in Western Rift shall vote for President William Ruto. The president also promised to expand Narok-Kisii. Kumi bila break. @ray_omollo
