Thursday, August 1, 2024 - Deputy President Rigathi Gachagua has ordered Nyeri County police commanders not to allow Gen Z demonstrations during the planned ‘Nane Nane March’ scheduled for August 8, 2024.
Speaking on Wednesday in Nyeri
County, the deputy president said what is happening in the county, particularly
in Karatina town, is unacceptable and the government cannot allow it to continue.
DP Gachagua said the people
behind the weekly protests are known and should be arrested and arraigned in
court.
“What is happening in Karatina is not acceptable.
"We cannot accept that every week there are thugs harassing business people.
"The police come and they chase them away.
"These characters are
known, they should be arrested and taken to court,” said Gachagua.
The second in command asked the
Nyeri County Commissioner to ensure that the people behind the anti-government
protests are dealt with, saying they are disrupting businesses in Karatina
town.
"We cannot accept a
situation where criminals are disturbing people in Karatina and the people who
are organizing these things are known.
"So the county Commissioner
and your team, put your best foot forward and bring an end to that nonsense in
Karatina,” Gachagua remarked.
