Why harass boda boda riders earning their daily bread in a battered economy? - Karua. 

NARC Kenya leader Martha Karua has accused President William Ruto's government of unleashing terror on peaceful protestors. 

In a statement on Monday, March 20, Karua questioned why police officers were arresting boda boda operators going on with their daily business.  

"The illegitimate Ruto regime cannot suspend the right to peaceful procession and unleash a reign of terror on Kenyans.

"We must continue to resist until we restore our constitutional order. Why harass boda boda riders earning their daily bread in a battered economy? The actions of police today reveal that this illegitimate regime is scared of citizens," she tweeted.

There is a heavy police presence in Nairobi's Central Business District (CBD) following the protests that have been called by ODM leader Raila Odinga.

A section of Azimio MPs was teargassed at the Kenyatta International Convention Centre where they had converged for demonstrations.

The MPs led by Nairobi Senator Edwin Sifuna, Minority Whip Stewart Madzayo, Mishi Mboko, Peter Kalerwa Salasya, and many others stormed the KICC for the protests accompanied by a fraction of their supporters.
