NASA leader Raila Odinga has said that he knows many more of his coalition’s leaders are going to be arrested.
Speaking on Monday after the arrest of David Ndii, which happened on Sunday night, Odinga further attacked the government for intimidating NASA leaders.
He, however, said they will not stop at anything in their quest to push for reforms in the country, holding on to his sentiments that they do not to recognize President Kenyatta’s presidency.
“These are basically designed to try to and intimidate and blackmail the people of Kenya. Mr. David Ndii has committed no crime, and we know why he is being harassed here, and we know the matter is not ending with him. I know that other people are going to be arrested.
He added: “But I want to say this for free to this government, the people of Kenya will not be intimidated to submission, the will of the people of Kenya cannot be suppressed through arrest, prosecutions, blackmail,”
Last week, the NASA coalition picked Ndii as the head of the seven-member team to oversee the implementation of the people’s assembly.
He is known as a critic of the current Kenyatta government, and NASA is reading more into the arrest as they prepare for December 12, when they plan to swear in Raila Odinga as president.
