Kalonzo anadai jaribio la kumuuwa baada ya polisi kushambulia msafara wa upinzani Kikuyu

Kiongozi wa Wiper Kalonzo Musyoka amedai polisi walijaribu kumuua wakishambulia msafara wao wa Kikuyu. Msafara ulikuwa unaoendesha Kalonzo, Rigathi Gachagua na Eugene Wamalwa. Polisi walipiga risasi za live, teargas na risasi za mpira.

Msafara wa upinzani ulizuiliwa na maafisa wa polisi wenye silaha kwenye kiingilio cha Gitaru–Kikuyu, karibu na mji wa Kikuyu. Kulingana na taarifa ya Wiper iliyotolewa Aprili 12, polisi walipiga risasi za live, teargas na risasi za mpira dhidi ya msafara wakati wa mchana kweupe.

Msafara uligawanyika katika makundi mawili, moja yaliendelea Kikuyu ambapo Gachagua alifanya mkutano licha ya kushambuliwa. Polisi walifika na kutawanya wafuasi kwa teargas na risasi za live, na matokeo yalikuwa majeruhi na uharibifu wa magari.

“I am a Mau Mau son; I am not intimidated,” Gachagua alisema akiwa na wafuasi katika eneo la Kimani Ichung’wah, Mbunge wa eneo hilo. Kalonzo alisema shambulio liliwalenga viongozi, magari yao na wataalamu wa habari, ambao wengine walijeruhiwa na kupelekwishwa hospitali.

Tukio hili linafuatana na mazishi ya Mbunge wa Ol Kalau David Kiaraho, ambapo Gachagua alimshutumu Ichung’wah kwa kushawishi goons katika Mkoa wa Mlima Kenya.
