A contingent of armed police officers led by Nakuru Town West Sub-County Police Commander, stopped a strategic campaign meeting organised by Tanga Tanga team. Police lobbed tear gas canisters to disperse the parliamentarians who were set to attend a consultative meeting regarding the London Ward by-election. The officers also threw tear gas canisters inside Kenya Medical Training College, apparently to disperse students who had started gathering and chanting slogans. The other MPs present were Nakuru County Woman Rep, Liza Chelule, her Nyandarua counterpart, Faith Gitau, Nyeri Woman Rep, Rahab Mukami and Mohammed Ali, Nyali. The politicians left and later gathered their supporters at the home of former Nakuru Mayor, John Kitilit within Milimani Estate.
