Azimio coalition launches IP-enabled spy cameras to be deployed during demonstrations in a move counter the government.
Azimio announced the launch of IP-enabled spy cameras in a news release dated March 26.
In order to catch those who seek to cause chaos during the scheduled mass protests on Monday, March 27, cameras will be placed in various areas across the country.
Azimio through National Assembly Minority Leader Opiyo Wandayi further revealed that the coalition had put in place a secure web platform to be used by supporters.
“All those that intend to cause mayhem will also be captured through a number of our IP-enabled spy cameras that will transmit to our cloud servers in real time,” the press release read in part.
On the need for a secure web platform, Azimio explained, “In the face of real threat to the free media, Kenyans need a secure web platform where members of the public are invited to post occurrences.”
Azimio announced that the platform will accept photo, video and audio evidence of real-time happenings during the protests.

“This material will be available for the world to see. This will enable us to keep the public and all stakeholders informed of progress and real-time occurrences across the country,” Wandayi informed the public.
Azimio further revealed that anybody with a phone or a camera, can access and post anonymously or view the material remotely.
The statement from Azimio was made a few hours after Police Inspector General (IG) Japhet Koome outlawed the planned protests.
Koome dared to arrest and arraign anyone who comes with items such as rungus and pangas to the Azimio mass action demos.
In addition, the IG said that both the rubber bullets and tear gas canisters had been examined to ensure they couldn’t kill anyone.
