President Uhuru Kenyatta has warned NASA supporters against destruction of property during their planned protests against the Independent Electoral and Boundaries Commission (IEBC).

Speaking on Monday at a rally in Embu, Uhuru said that while NASA leaders and their supporters are allowed by the Constitution to hold protests, any acts of hooliganism and vandalism will be faced by equal force.

“It is their right to protest, but should they destroy property, harass motorists, or destroy property they will know that there is a government in place,” said Uhuru.

On Sunday Opposition leader Raila Odinga said NASA coalition is planning to hold anti-IEBC protests starting tomorrow (Tuesday) to push for the sacking of the electoral body’s CEO Ezra Chiloba.

“We don’t fear going to the election. But we will only participate if the IEBC is reconstituted. Starting Tuesday, we will hold demonstrations outside IEBC offices to remove Chiloba from office,” said Raila during a rally in Kawangware.

Opposition leaders have claimed that Chiloba orchestrated massive rigging in the August 8 presidential election.
