Murang’a residents are condemning the ongoing Azimio la Umoja One Coalition anti-government protests saying they were derailing development in the country.
Speaking at Mukuyu market in Murang’a town, the residents said they do not advocate for protests since they are likely to lead to loss of lives and destruction of property.
Bernard Wanja, a resident and boda boda rider, said they will not allow mayhem to destroy people’s property and lead to the loss of lives.
“I urge my fellow boda boda operators not to participate in the planned protests,” he said, adding that they should continue their daily activities to earn a living.
Further, Wanja cautioned the youth not to allow themselves to be used by a few political leaders to propagate their selfish agenda.
“I urge the people in the county to co-exist peacefully in a bid to create cohesion in the wake of chaotic anti-government demonstrations in parts of the country,” he said.
Earlier on, the Azimio la Umoja One Kenya Coalition Leader Raila Odinga reiterated plans to hold anti-government protests from Wednesday to Friday, despite stern warnings from the government.
The Coalition has also announced that they have so far collected six million signatures in a drive to remove President William Ruto from office.
Speaking today, Narc Leader Martha Karua has called upon Kenyans to sign the petition.
"We are pleased to announce that as at this morning, we have hit 6 million signatures. Let’s continue signing up at TUMECHOKA.COM,TUMECHOKA.NET,TUMECHOKA.ORGCOM,TUMECHOKA.NET,TUMECHOKA.ORG.”
