President Uhuru Kenyatta on Tuesday took Jubilee campaigns to Uasin-Gishu County where he asked police to increase security for presidential candidates and the IEBC staff ahead of the August 8 elections.
President Kenyatta said police should ensure protection of presidential candidates, their running mates and the IEBC staff to effectively discharge their duties without any fear.
The Head of State who was accompanied by Deputy President William Ruto also asked police to speed up investigations into the death of the IBEC ICT Manager Chris Msando with a view to bringing those responsible to book.
Addressing a huge rally in Eldoret’s 64 Stadium, President Kenyatta said the Government would make sure all Kenyans lives and property are protected in any part of the country.
“I ask police to increase security for all presidential candidates, their running mates and IEBC staff to continue with their activities without any fear,” said President Kenyatta.
