Nairobi police Commander Adamson Bungei said that the mass actioned planned tomorrow by Azimio to protest against the high cost of living and electoral injustice will be met by the full force of the law as it will be an illegal gathering.

Addressing the press on Sunday, the police boss said that the demonstrations don’t meet the required threshold for holding a protest.

He also disclosed that they had received two requests to hold demonstrations in the city, one by the Azimio brigade and another one from the Nairobi business community.

“We are in receipt of two requests that came late yesterday and today in the m morning. One was from Azimio la Umoja One Kenya and another from the Nairobi business community. The two groups intended to have peaceful demos. But for public safety none has been granted,” he said.

Bungei said the two groups did not meet the threshold to be allowed to carry on with protest and warned of dire consequences for those who will break the law.

“Any person who will breach the peace or break the law during the procession shall be dealt with according to the law,” he said.

He further reiterated that the statehouse is a protected zone and no one will be allowed inside, whether peaceful or not.

“I want to underline some areas such as State House where we have heard people planning to invade or visit is covered by the laws of Kenya that it is a restricted area for unauthorised persons,” he said.
