Military officers have now been sent to every protected area in the nation, following President William Ruto's passionate speech to the populace.
The deployment also comes after Defense Cabinet Secretary Aden Duale's announcement from last night's gazette.
The KDF currently maintains tight security over a number of locations, including State Houses in Mombasa, Nairobi, and Nakuru, as well as lodges spread throughout the nation.
They were spotted arranged in a line at the State House's main road in Nakuru.

At the late Jomo Kenyatta's mausoleum next to parliament, there has also been evidence of a military presence.
Protesters opposing the finance bill broke through Parliament's barrier and demolished the mausoleum's outer wall, among other things.
Unauthorized entry into these areas is prohibited by the Protected Areas Act.
In these areas, anyone detained for the purpose of a search will be considered to be in lawful custody.
In his speech, Ruto declared that the protests had been taken over and named the organizers, backers, orchestrators, and promoters of chaos and violence.
The head of state gave Kenyans assurances about their safety, saying he had ordered all national security agencies to take all necessary precautions against dangerous criminals trying to jeopardize the security and stability of their nation.
"I assure the nation, that the Government has mobilised all the resources at the nation’s disposal to ensure that a situation of this nature, will not recur again, at whatever cost," Ruto said.
"As the people of Kenya go to bed tonight, I give you my assurance that your security, that of your families and property, remains my utmost priority."
