Kericho Senator Aaron Cheruiyot has disagreed with Raila Odinga and his NASA team for calling for mass action against IEBC ahead of the October election.
According to Cheruiyot, NASA has no authority to give IEBC demands on how they should conduct an election.
The senator pointed out that IEBC has all the powers to disqualify Raila as a presidential candidate and let other willing persons participate in the October presidential election.
"I totally disagree with Raila Odinga and his mass action call against IEBC. He and his NASA team have no authority to give demands to IEBC. In fact, Raila should know that IEBC can disqualify him and give opportunity to other willing presidential candidates," said Cheruiyot.
The senator, who spoke on Citizen TV on Monday, cautioned NASA ahead of their planned mass action on Tuesday.
Cheruiyot affirmed that any destruction of property or interference with other people's activities will be dealt with by the relevant authorities.
"NASA has all the rights to picket. However, they should not destroy property nor interfere with the activities of other people. If they do, then the relevant authorities will take action," added Cheruiyot.
