Today, Raila Odinga is expected to give his 'big announcement'.
As expected, all media houses sent their reporters and OB vans for live coverage.
But Nasa members present were particularly angry with one journalist.. Francis Gachuri of Citizen.
Actually, they were angry with Citizen TV and the anger was directed at the staff. They wanted to destroy the Citizen OB van after throwing out Francis Gachuri.
Where did the beef start?
Well, on August 8th, the media was faulted for not having their own tallying centres and instead relying on IEBC numbers.
This time round, Citizen sent reporters to all constituency tallying centers, and in fact compiled their own independent figures.
Two days before IEBC told us the actual turnout, Citizen TV was already reporting that their own independent figures showed Uhuru with about 7.5 million votes.
This did not go down well with Nasa supporters, who have chosen to believe Raila's falsehood that only 3.5 million people voted.
Anyone giving them a different figure is an enemy and must be chased out of their press conferences.
And by the way, NTV also had their own independent tallying centre that confirmed IEBC's figure.
For the record, the owner of Citizen TV, SK Macharia, is a big and public supporter of Raila Odinga.
Raila knows nothing but violence, and no matter how many times he denies having a private militia/goons to enforce his directives, anyone with 2 eyes knows the truth.
Here's part of that clip that also so an NTV female journalist slapped.
