The United Opposition alliance, led by Kalonzo Musyoka and Rigathi Gachagua, announced it will hold multiple rallies in Nairobi and other counties starting Sunday, warning Inspector General of Police Douglas Kanja against interference. The alliance has cancelled a planned march to the police headquarters and instead vowed to pursue private prosecutions against twelve police officers. This relates to the investigation of the January 25 Witima ACK Church attack. In response to protests, IG Kanja warned that financial strain within the National Police Service could force officers to use live ammunition. Meanwhile, Interior Cabinet Secretary Kipchumba Murkomen stated that teargas used at opposition rallies may not be from police, prompting an investigation into how civilians came to possess teargas canisters.
