About 20 youth were on Sunday arrested in Homa Bay in possession of crude weapons ahead of ODM primaries.

The primaries are scheduled for Monday.

County police boss John Omusanga confirmed the arrest.

He said that the youth were planning to disrupt a training workshop of presiding officers at Rangwe Girls High School.

"They will be arraigned in court tomorrow," Mr Omusanga said.

The nominations, which have been shrouded by confusion and threats of violence, will take place in eight constituencies in the region.
