Police in Mumias have canceled permits for two meetings set for this weekend planned by ANC leader Mudavadi citing security fears. In the letter dated January 14, police advised the planners to inform their participants of the changes. "This is to notify you that this office has canceled your permit to carry out the exercise purportedly scheduled to take place on 18th due to security reasons," the letter reads. By this letter, be informed that any person contravening this directive will be held criminally responsible," it read. Mudavadi and his Ford Kenya counterpart Moses Wetang’ula have united to oppose meetings to popularise the Building Bridges Initiative report.
