A group of Kenya Kwanza leaders, led by Farouk Kibet, have strongly condemned the opposition's planned protests scheduled for June 25, urging instead for peace and national unity.

• Farouk Kibet, an aide to President William Ruto, cautioned against the "misuse of the constitutional right to picket for political gain."
• Other Kenya Kwanza MPs, including Mwengi Mutuse, Japheth Nyakundi, and John Bwire, echoed these sentiments, emphasizing the need for development and peaceful coexistence.
• Senate Majority Leader Sen. Aaron Cheruiyot also praised the overwhelming support for the Finance Bill 2026, highlighting its benefits for local farmers, particularly in the sugar industry.

National Assembly Speaker Moses Wetang'ula has urged Kenyans to reject tribal politics and embrace national unity, emphasizing that the country's progress hinges on prioritizing national interest over ethnic and political considerations.

• The call was made during a fundraiser in Likoni, Mombasa County, for the Salute Community-Based Organization (CBO).
• Wetang'ula stressed that all communities are equal and cautioned against division, advocating for vigorous competition during elections followed by unity for the common good.
• He also condemned politicians allegedly sponsoring violence through hired gangs and praised former Prime Minister Raila Odinga for prioritizing the country after the 2022 election.

The Kenyan police have assured citizens of adequate security for the upcoming June 25 memorial march, while strongly warning against any acts of violence or disruption.

• Deputy Inspector General Eliud Lagat pledged that peace will prevail and pledged to deal decisively with anyone causing violence.
• The memorial march is intended to honor those who died during the 2024 and 2025 anti-government protests.
• Lagat urged the youth not to be used by politicians to cause chaos and warned criminal gangs against exploiting the situation.
