BY KORIR JUMA,NAIROBI,31ST JAN 2018-An attack carried out at the residence of NASA co-principal Kalonzo Musyoka in Karen was an attempt to intimidate the Opposition over their position on political and electoral reforms.
According to Senator Moses Wetangula it’s a wake-up call for Musyoka and other Opposition leaders since it comes a few hours after their security was withdrawn.
But he says the incident, which he termed as bizarre, cannot be linked to their failure to show up for Tuesday’s swearing-in at Uhuru Park, a thing that left many supporters disappointed.
Musyoka says he won’t comment further until investigations are over.
“There’s heavy security presence in my compound; they will tell us,” he told journalists outside his residence, in the leafy suburb of Nairobi.
Wetangula says the government should ensure leaders are safe insisting that it should be held responsible if anything happens to them.
“We can’t be intimidated,” he asserted.
Opposition Chief Raila Odinga was expected to visit the home at 11am.
