All campaigning should be suspended indefinitely until calmness prevails again.
Nowadays Our leaders are yapping Assassination attempts but no one is dying which we wish most of them can just disappear.Other day oooh if the baba could have died from helicopter bin thrown stones to Kenya could burn???.They should stop all this nonsense.
easier than say but his political opponents mobile phones needs to be tracked 6 months from today
I take such reports with a grain of salt. Kenyan politicians are known to stage accidents and attacks for sympathy votes.
It’s called ODM or for better word Azimio banditry. Who will dtop them when the only president of the country has renegaded his duties and is now a chief campaign manager of the official opposition party?
