Kega reports to police day after alleged attack in Ol Joro Orok

EALA MP Kanini Kega reported to the police on July 14, 2020, following an alleged attack that occurred the previous day in Nyandarua County. Kega claims he was chased by armed officers after attending a Democracy for Citizens Party (DCP) rally, leading to the vandalism of his vehicle. His lawyer confirmed the incident, stating that officers used gun butts to damage the car. No official report had been filed at the time, prompting an investigation by local authorities. The incident occurs amid heightened tensions during the election campaign season, with similar accusations against police failures in protecting political figures, including an attack on PLP leader Martha Karua’s convoy. Recent clashes between rival youth groups in Kisumu further highlight concerns over security and public safety.
