“What we are saying as a party, any death of any Kenyan anywhere, we condemn it fully. Not only the death of Albert Ojwang or the hawker who was shot in the streets, remember there was a priest who was shot dead by bandits, and there are over 20 Turkana fishermen who died in Lake Turkana,” Wakoli stated.
The Bungoma Senator reiterated that the Ford Kenya Party is in solidarity with Kenyans against the use of excessive force by law enforcement agencies.
“We are standing in solidarity with Kenyans against any brutality by law enforcement agencies. We stand with Kenyans and also with the government of Kenya to ensure it calls to order those who are not respecting the sanctity of life,” Wakoli concluded.
