The government has ordered ODM to compensate the owner of the vehicle burnt on
Sunday during its rally in
Nairobi’s Mathare area.
Speaking to the media in Nairobi on Tuesday, spokesman
Erick Kiraithe said the conveners of the rally will be held accountable.
Kiraithe added that the government had started looking for the culprits whom he said will be prosecuted.
Police used tear gas and water cannons to disperse crowds of ODM supporters who allegedly
set the vehicle ablaze after party leaders concluded their
rally.
The supporters had just left Masinde Muliro gardens where the rally took place. They accused the car’s owner of hitting and injuring one of them.
