The National Super Alliance (Nasa) has now postponed protests earlier announced to be held in Nairobi.
Siaya Senator James Orengo, said the protests had been called off to give time to the ongoing debate in various county assemblies seeking to establish a people’s assembly.
“This is to enable the coalition’s leaders and supporters concentrate on and support the initiative that is intended to have the people exercise their sovereignty directly and chart their future through a people’s assembly,” Mr Orengo said in the statement.
He said a new date for the peaceful protests will be communicated.
Nasa had earlier written to the Nairobi County Police Commander Japheth Koome seeking permit to hold the peaceful dsmos.
