Several sources have confirmed that this happened at the same time when interior Cabinet Secretary Kithure Kindiki stated that police are going to be present.

The youth have begun gathering in various areas and have planned to protest in various groups. Riot police have taken positions in Eldoret where youth have begun gathering for the Finance Bill protests. Hundreds of police officers have been deployed on the streets ahead of the demos

The youth have begun gathering in various areas and have planned to protest in various groups “It’s our constitutional right to picket whenever we have reason to do so and now it’s about the finance bill,” said a youth leader Ben Ruto. The Uasin Gishu county government headquarters is among the key installations where security has been beefed up.
