Police Give Direction on Demos During Ruto’s State of Nation Address
According to police, it is the Constitutional right of Kenyans to picket peacefully but there are Constitutional provisions and procedures for the same.
Organisers of such are required to notify relevant authorities at least three days in advance, outlining the details of their meeting.
According to the National Police Spokesperson Dr Resila Onyango, as of Wednesday evening they had not been informed of any planned demos thus they would not be allowed.
She directed Kenyans to go about their activities without fear as police would remain dedicated to their duty to serve and protect people.
President Ruto is set to give the State of the Nation Address on Thursday afternoon at the National Assembly.
