European Union Elections Observer Mission leader Maretje Schaake's warning on the possibility of the August elections turning chaotic simply reaffirms warnings given earlier by the National Cohesion and Integration Commission (NCIC).

Early this year, NCIC gave a list of 19 counties identified as trouble spots, but it seems the warning did not register with our political leaders given their utterances during this campaign period.
