Azimio la Umoja now claims that State has sanctioned enlisting of militia to counter peaceful protestors.
National Assembly Minority Leader Opiyo Wandayi on Monday said the decision to have armed militia battle opposition supporters was made during the Saturday Kenya Kwanza PG at State House.
"For the first time in history we are being made to understand that State House has sanctioned enlisting of militia to attack peaceful demonstrators," Wandayi said.
"It was what happened at State House on Saturday."
The Ugunja MP also maintained the three-day protests starting on Wednesday are on to push the government to lower the cost of living.
He was accompanied by Senate Minority Leader Stewart Madzayo, Nairobi Senator Edwin Sifuna, Sam Atandi (Alego Usonga), Caleb Amisi (Saboti), Wilberforce Oundo (Funyula), Ong'ondo Were (Kasipul) and Godfrey Osotsi (Vihiga).
