[Photo: Nairobi News]Senate Deputy Chief Whip and Muranga Senator Irungu Kang'ata has revealed what he has said is NASA's 'long-term strategy' to remain relevant.In the so-called daily 'peaceful' demonstrations, the opposition plans to rock the country since the opposition knows peaceful demos cannot have any impact.He said 'that is why NASA leadership has been inciting violence disguised as peaceful agitation for electoral reforms."You cannot hit the headlines unless you cause chaos, anarchy and lawlessness. Their (NASA) long-term strategy has been to cause chaos and portray Kenya to the outside world as a country at the brink of a precipice. The same message Raila Odinga took to Europe the other day," Kang'ata told NTV on Sunday evening during an interview.He added that though it was NASA's constitutional right to demonstrate, the same constitution also gives the government the power to limit those rights for public security, especially where violence is imminent."We do not have a single demonstrator who is demonstrating peacefully in these Nasa protests. That is why the government had to step in and ban demos in main cities' CBDs," he said.Speaking at the same interview, Mathare MP Anthony Oluoch, nevertheless, disagreed with Kang'ata saying that Jubilee had not only banned demos in CBDs of three cities but everywhere."They have completely banned any kind of demonstrations within the CBD and outside the CBD. Nasa protestors should go to the streets knowing pretty well that their demos are banned. We, however, tell Matiang'i and the police that we will protest, we will continue to agitate. They will throw teargas at us but we won’t relent," Oluoch asserted.
