Nasa presidential candidate Raila Odinga. President Uhuru has been warned that he will be the one to blame in case anything sinister happens to Raila [kenya-today.com].Nasa coalition has demanded that PresidentUhuru Kenyatta, Interior CS Joseph Nkaissery and Inspector General of Police Joseph Boinnet explain to Kenyans the 'purpose and mission' of 60 AP officers who have been undergoing military training at Katulo in Wajir County.The opposition through Siaya Senator and Nasa legal adviser James Orengo on Tuesday warned that Uhuru will be held 'solely responsible' in case anything bad happens NASA flagbearer Raila Odinga and his four co-principals.Orengo said some police trainees have been trailing Raila, his running mate and Wiper leader Kalonzo Musyoka, ANC leader Musalia Mudavadi, Ford Kenya’s Moses Wetang’ula and CCM’s Isaac Rutto in campaigns.“Yesterday [Monday], eight of the 60 were released from the fields in Wajir to Nairobi and relocated to Kiambu on unspecified mission. We are particularly concerned that the hurried release of the eight officers to Kiambu on unspecified mission coincided with the release of the programme of Odinga’s visit to Kiambu today [yesterday],” Orengo said as quoted by the Star.The paper reports that the officers have allegedly been undergoing'suspicious training' for two months and have been using police vehicles. They allegedly started training at Kahawa Barracks in Kiambu, before relocating to Wajir.Orengo said the officers have been made to surrender their official identification documents and ordered to operate as ordinary civilians, while using equipment from the police force.“This makes their mission more sinister. We know from past experience the state has used trained security officers to undertake missions such as participating in ethnic violence, while masquerading as ordinary civilians,” he said.He added: “This makes it easy for the state to disown and dismiss them as ordinary thugs, when caught in the act.We fear Jubilee is hatching a similar plan again with this suspicious training. That scheme seems to be afoot again.”The shrewd lawyer stated that Nasa will not wait to 'tell the tale' after the crime has been committed adding that they have to raise the red flag well in advance.
