Hitting back at the police for lobbying teargas canisters at him on Wednesday, Moses Kuria contended that a revolution was in the offing.
Speaking to members of the press after being denied access to seeing Starehe Member of Parliament Charles Njagua who was arrested by police on Wednesday afternoon, the outspoken Gatundu South legislator warned that the government was "pouring petrol on embers".
"I think this is not necessary at all, not because these are Members of Parliament. I think they should have been asked to record a statement. You don't deny people their right of expression. I think we are going too far..."an angry Moses Kuria said.
"I think we are joking with serious matters because this kind of escalation might result in totally unintended consequences... We are setting this country in a path that might be irreversible. Someone is adding petrol on small embers which might be a big fire of a revolution. It is coming, I can smell it. The smell of a revolution is stronger than the smell of teargas that we have taken in today," he added.
Kuria contended that Kenyans were suffering under the weight of economic hardship which had not been addressed.
He claimed that the country had its economic priorities upside down.
