Invasion of Kenyatta family land (Northlands) continue to attract reaction with Gideon Moi condemning chaos witnessed on Monday.
KANU Party leader Gideon Moi has broken the silence over the violence witnessed during Azimio anti-government demonstrations.
In a tweet posted on March 29th, Moi denounced the violence and pleaded with Kenyans to keep the peace.
“We must come to a common understanding as a nation that our different political inclinations should not degenerate into religious animosity as recently witnessed in parts of Kibra Constituency, Nairobi County.
“Our constitution acknowledges the supremacy of the Almighty God in the Preamble and the freedom of religion, thus reaffirming the importance of religious tolerance despite our beliefs,” said Moi.
In addition, the former senator for Baringo urged Kenyans to respect private property when exercising their right to protest.
“Further, even as we exercise the right to picket under Article 37, we must all be emphatic in denouncing the destruction of private property in any part of this country, be it a stall, shop, supermarket or even farm,” he added.

The invaders cut down trees and stole sheep before burning a section of the land.
The latest developments also saw the burning of a church and a mosque in Nairobi’s Kibra area on Monday night by goons after a day of protests.
Although KANU is under the Azimio La Umoja One Kenya coalition party which Odinga leads, the party has not been active in the Azimio protests as the opposition pressures President William Ruto’s administration to lower the cost of living, among other issues.
