Police in Kisii on Saturday, June 11, arrested a local businesswoman after recovering weapons hidden in her bar ahead of Azimio presidential candidate Raila Odinga's tour of the region. The businesswoman is being probed to establish if the reports were related to reports of alleged violence at Azimio flagbearer Raila Odinga's rally slated for Monday, June 13. The county police boss noted that preliminary investigations revealed that the brand new machetes were to be used to cause violence in the rally. We would not want that to happen because the supporters of the politician may see it as something that may trigger violence," Kooli stated.
