Opposition leader Raila Odinga has expressed disappointment after police disrupted his grand welcome from the United States.

Raila who left the country on November 8, returned on Friday at 11 am. His NASA coalition had planned a grand welcome for him but police disrupted it with tear gas canisters, blocked roads and prevented the leaders from making an address at Uhuru Park and Kibra' Kamukunji grounds.

Speaking at Upper Hill where his convoy made a stopover, Odinga said he was very angry with President Uhuru Kenyatta.

He said Kenyatta asked the police to intimidate him by hurling tear gas canisters at him and his supporters and shooting at them.

"Today I am very angry. My anger is to this 'boy' called Uhuru Kenyatta and his (William) Ruto. I went abroad and I have now returned. Uhuru knew where I was, didn't he? And I came with good news to you as Kenyans.. instead of welcoming me humbly, he sends police to hurl tear gas canisters at me, to beat my people, to shoot at my supporters. This is inhumanity!" said Raila as he addressed supporters, Friday evening.

"Today is the day we are launching Kenya as a third republic. What you have seen is a signal that a third liberation is coming soon. Canaan is near. Bye to Uhuru," he added.

James Orengo, Johnstone Muthama, Boni Khalwale and Musalia Mudavadi also addressed the supporters, saying Raila will be the president.
