Editor's Review

CS Kindiki said there was a hitch last week, stating that the government is now ready for a face-off with the opposition protesters.

Interior CS Kithure Kindiki has restated his resolution to quell the opposition's anti-government protests. 

While acknowledging that the opposition is not meant to side with the government, Kindiki detested violence, destruction of property, and loss of lives under the guise of enjoying the constitutional right to picket.

He said the government is on alert to deal with the chaos that will arise from the demonstrations. 

"My brothers in the opposition, please let's do our politics, let's put out our policies in a peaceful manner.

If you think you'll hide behind a constitutional right to destroy property, killing Kenyans and meting violence on Kenyans; try that and you will regret it," he said.
