Minority leader in the National Assembly and Ugunja member of parliament Opiyo Wandayi has asked all employers to let their employees participate in the nationwide protests happening on Monday the 20th, ordered by the leader of azimio Raila Odinga.
Speaking at parliament buildings to address the level of readiness ahead of the anticipated protests, the minority leader advised employers that their workers will have a duty to perform that day.
"Employers from all sectors should release their employees and allow them to participate in the national duty. We expect that the employers will understand that their employees will be having a national duty to perform that day," said Wandayi.
"The call by Mr. Ruto that Raila should agree with the police on how to go about the demonstration is uncalled for. The police know their duty which is to protect lives and properties of Kenyans," he said.
