Britain has issued a travel advice on Kenya citing possible chaos during the Tuesday inauguration (November 28) of President-elect Uhuru Kenyatta.

According to Britain, political tensions are high and chaos might erupt ahead, during or after Uhuru’s swearing in ceremony.

“Presidential elections took place on 26 October 2017; the inauguration of President Kenyatta will take place in the Kasarani Stadium in Nairobi on 28 November; political tensions are high and demonstrations and clashes are possible throughout the country, particularly in the western region; you should exercise caution and, where possible, avoid travelling around areas where demonstrations may take place,” said Britain.

The U.S. Embassy had also before the Supreme Court ruling advised of possible wide-spread violence and traffic disruptions following the landmark decision.

National Super Alliance (NASA) leaders are also planning to swear in Raila Odinga as President of the People’s Republic of Kenya on Tuesday next week.

The move bound to ignite further confrontation with the Jubilee brigade.

The Supreme Court unanimously upheld the re-election of Uhuru paving way for his swearing in for second term in office.

The court nullified the August 8 election on account of illegalities and irregularities.

Among the faults found by the highest court in the land is lack of proper transmission system and at the same time use of forms which did not have security features.

This time, the court unanimously upheld President Uhuru’s re-election throwing out the petitions on grounds that they were not merited.
