Kakamega Senator Boni Khalwale

Kakamega, Kenya: Senator Boni Khalwale arrested while leading anti-IEBC demos in Kakamega; protesters were matching to the electoral body’s offices. 
Senator Boni Khalwale had earlier led demonstrations against the Independent Electoral and Boundaries Commission (IEBC) in Kakamega town.

Khalwale said picketing is allowed by the law and dismissed Starehe MP Maina Kamanda who has threatened to go to court over the ongoing demos.

But Navakholo MP Emmanuel Wangwe maintained that the law must be followed in ejecting IEBC commissioners from office. "CORD has two options to have their grievances addressed. They can use diplomacy or use anarchy... However, using anarchy may lead to destruction of this nation," said Wangwe.
