The United Democratic Alliance (UDA) has reported a plot to disrupt an opposition rally in Mbeere North, accusing Democratic Congress Party (DCP) leader Rigathi Gachagua and his allies. UDA Chairperson Cecily Mbarire claims intelligence indicates individuals will be ferried from outside Embu County to incite violence during Gachagua's tour supporting DCP's Newton Karish in the upcoming by-election.

• Plotters allegedly issued UDA-branded T-shirts to frame the party and its candidate, Leonard Muthende, if violence erupts.
• UDA submitted a list of individuals involved in mobilization from areas like Sagana, Kirinyaga, Kayole, and Ruiru.
• The Independent Electoral and Boundaries Commission (IEBC) previously identified Mbeere North as a volatile area ahead of the November 27 by-election.
