A campaign rally led by Democracy for the Citizens Party (DCP) leader Rigathi Gachagua in Narok was disrupted by police who fired teargas, causing chaos and panic moments before his candidate, Douglas Makonde, was to address the crowd.

• The incident occurred on November 24 as Gachagua campaigned for DCP candidate Douglas Masikonde in the upcoming Narok Township Ward by-election.
• Gachagua accused President William Ruto's administration of deploying over 1,000 police officers and setting up roadblocks in an attempt to prevent him from entering Narok town and to silence his campaign.
• The by-election on Thursday holds national political interest following the death of MCA Lukas Kudate, with the ruling United Democratic Alliance (UDA) fronting Kanyinke Ole Kudate, the late MCA’s son.
