Two people were arrested in Othaya yesterday for allegedly organising protests against impeachment of Governor Nderitu Gachagua.

 Nyeri South Deputy County Commander Stanley Kamande said police intercepted the demonstrators and arrested organisers because of lack of a licence.

"The demonstration was not authorised as they did not notified the police. They will be charged with participating in an illegal demonstration," he said.
