[SIZE=6]Stop the violence and looting, Raila pleads with supporters[/SIZE]
National Super Alliance (NASA) presidential candidate Raila Odinga has made a passionate appeal to his supporters to reject violence and ensure property is not destroyed during the anti-IEBC demonstrations.
Mr Odinga said it was wrong to light bonfires on roads and disrupt public transport and other essential service in the push for reforms at the Independent Electoral and Boundaries Commission (IEBC).
The NASA candidate spoke a day after a group of youths broke away from those demonstrating in Kisumu town and looted Tumaini Supermarket on Friday.
Seriously injured
Some of the looters were seriously injured by private guards hired to protect the store.
There have been ugly incidents of violence in Kisumu and the neigbouring towns of Siaya, Homa Bay, Bondo and Migori during public demonstrations. If it is not police shooting at demonstrators, it is hooligans disguised as Opposition supporters breaking into shops and blocking roads.
On Friday, a boda boda taxi operator was shot and wounded by police after anti-IEBC protest turned violent in Homa Bay.
The police also fired tear gas as Homa Bay Governor Cyprian Awiti led hundreds of demonstrators in the town.
The governor condemned the police for provoking demonstrators through use of brutal force.
Kwani hii Tumaini is the only supermarket in Kisumu ama there are many supermarkets with that name. This is like the 3rd time naskia it has been looted.
You tell young men not to eke out a living for 3 days a week ! what do you expect they have to eat ! wacha wamalize mitaa zao the rest of Kenya will move on !
When they attacked old women in a conference all other conferences in the area were cancelled, wame haribu pipleline ya maji wacha kipindupindu ( weston strain ) ifike huko watasema afadahli teargas!
The owner is the one who keeps provoking peace loving kisumu youth into attacking his supermarket. They were probably marching peacefully past his supermarket when he came out, started throwing rotten eggs at them while shouting RWNBP!!!
if only there was a way he could say’ stop destroying kisumu, they voted for me’ and get away with it the same way he got away with ’ stop hurting kisiis they voted for me’ in 2007
Safaricom’s biggest Customer Care Shop along Moi Avenue vandalized by a group shouting pro Raila songs. The group rammed one of their cars into the shop saying that they wanted to teach Bob Collymore a lesson never to abuse baba again… Well, there you go…"father of democracy " at work.[ATTACH=full]130910[/ATTACH]
Na si waliharibu gari yao na watafungwa and maybe even made to pay the damages incurred. So how’s Collymore suffering from any of this? Umeffi is also a talent
