Security officers are on high alert ahead of the anticipated crucial vote by senators to determine the fate of Deputy President Rigathi Gachagua.
The impeachment trial continues Thursday with cross-examinations and re-examination of witnesses.
Ahead of the debate that will culminate in voting, Gachagua will be accorded an opportunity to give his evidence before being cross-examined.
Following the protests witnessed in Kirinyaga Wednesday, police officers were Thursday morning deployed on standby.
This is to respond to any incidents that might be reported following the outcome.
There were intelligence reports that residents particularly in some counties in central Kenya were planning to stage protests should the senators uphold the National Assembly's decision to impeach Gachagua.
To remove the DP from office, at least 45 senators out of the total 67 are required to approve.
Gachagua is facing 11 charges.
Officers from GSU and anti-riot police have been deployed to identified spots specifically in Central where such incidents are likely to occur. Officers are also on high alert in Nairobi City.
During Wednesday's Kirinyaga incident, residents of Kirinyaga stormed Kagio town urging the Senate to save the DP. The irate residents barricaded the Kutus-Sagana Highway declaring support for him.
They also said they were sending messages to Kirinyaga Senator James Murango to vote against the impeachment of the deputy president.
“Gachagua and President William Ruto were standing here. They were urging us to support them in 2022; why Gachagua now?” posed Stephen Kariuki.
