Kenya: ODM-K meeting Sunday teargassed by the government!

Kenyan media has reported of teargassing of ODM-K supporters today.

In Nairobi today Sunday, the police teargassed ODM-K supporters who thronged the Kamukunji grounds for a planned prayer meeting according to the Kenyan media.

The government knows that party prayer meetings always turn political instead of doing what the day’s agenda was to be – prayers only.

Politicians from most parties in Kenya turn every opportunity they get, to talk politics and attack one another.

Even funerals attended by politicians get political instead of mourning the dead. It is a very sad trend that politicians who do so, turning funeral events to be political, are only thinking of how to retain their seats in parliament.

For them, the dead person they go to mourn is not of any value to them in future politics, so they turn the funeral function into a campaign to build their political kingdom.
