National Super Alliance (NASA) leader Raila Odinga has accused President Uhuru Kenyatta of being responsible for the Kenyans that died on Friday following his (Raila's) return to the country.

Speaking on Friday evening, Raila laid the blame squarely on Uhuru and his Jubilee Government saying they had for orchestrated violence against his supporters.

“NASA strongly condemns what has happened today, that is becoming a pattern in our country. We hold President Uhuru Kenyatta and his illegitimate regime responsible for this absurd and unfortunate turn of events," he said.

"The President has the blood of innocent Kenyans on his hands,” Raila stressed.

He said Uhuru was trying to introduce a dictatorship in the country and that this will not be allowed to take root.

“Today’s use of maximum brute force confirms our fears that a dictatorship is taking root in Kenya. As citizens, we have a duty and responsibility to stop it now before the roots go too deep,” he said.

“Kenyans however need to take heart that the path Uhuru is taking is a beaten one. It is the same path that was taken by Yaya Jammeh in the Gambia, Blaise Compaore in Burkina Faso, Laurent Gbagbo in Ivory Coast, Faure Gnassingbe in Togo and now Robert Mugabe in Zimbabwe. The results here will not be different,” Raila added.
