Linda Mwananchi rally teargassed in Narok
Police lobbed a teargas canister into the crowd at a Linda Mwananchi rally in Narok Town on Sunday, March 22, 2026
Police lobbed a teargas canister into the crowd at a Linda Mwananchi rally in Narok Town on Sunday, March 22, 2026, bringing proceedings to a sudden halt.
The rally had just begun when a teargas canister was thrown on one side of the crowd. The sudden attack caused brief confusion, with some people retreating while others sought cover away from the thick smoke.
Nairobi Senator Edwin Sifuna, who was leading the rally, stood firm amidst the chaos, stating that the disruption would not derail the meeting.
“Hatutaruhusu,” he declared, reaffirming that the rally would continue despite the teargas.

This was not the first time Senator Sifuna’s Linda Mwananchi rallies have been interrupted by teargas. A similar incident occurred on February 21, 2026, during a rally at Amalemba Grounds in Kakamega County.
On that occasion, Sifuna had just begun his opening remarks when canisters landed near the dais, causing panic among attendees. Thick, white smoke billowed across the grounds, forcing supporters to scatter.
Despite the disruption in Kakamega, Sifuna remained resolute, urging the youth in the crowd to remain calm and avoid clashes with police.
“This meeting will not be disrupted; it will not end,” he said. Calm eventually returned, and the rally continued, with Sifuna stressing the importance of peaceful civic participation.
