A fierce political exchange is unfolding after the Kakamega Linda Mwananchi rally, where tear gas, accusations, and a sharp response from ODM Secretary General Edwin Sifuna have pushed the story into the national spotlight. Police officers led by the Western Police Commander are claiming that Kenyans are tear-gassing themselves at political rallies — a narrative that Sifuna strongly rejects.
In this detailed breakdown, we examine what was said, what reportedly happened on the ground, and why the statement is now raising serious political and security questions. Sifuna insists the movement will not be stopped by tear gas, and he claims plainclothed officers were involved in throwing canisters into the crowd during the Kakamega rally.
What does this mean for the growing Linda Mwananchi movement? And why is the dispute between police accounts and opposition leaders becoming a national political flashpoint?
This video reconstructs the sequence of events, the statements, and the wider implications.
