In Migori County, seven explosive devices were discovered under the River Kuja Bridge along the Migori-Soni Road, just one day before a planned tour by President Ruto. The discovery caused panic and prompted a swift response from authorities.

• Bernard Wamalwa, Nyatike County Criminal Investigation Officer, confirmed the discovery of seven industrial emulsion and watergel explosives.
• A passerby noticed a strange wire on the evening of Monday, December 15, leading to the discovery.
• Authorities suspect the explosives were placed with malicious intent to destroy the bridge, potentially for a tender, as they were arranged unusually despite being old and designed for safety blasting.
