Waandamanaji na Viongozi wa Muungano wa NASA wamekuwa wakimtaka Bwana Chiloba ajiuzulu huku wakimtuhumu kwa kuhusika katika kuharibu uchaguzi wa Agosti 8 uliofutwa na Mahakama.

NASA protesters reutrned to Kisumu's streets in their hundreds on Monday in a demand for reforms before the fresh presidential election.

As has become tradition, they carried a mock coffin of IEBC chief executive Ezra Chiloba, lit fires and barricaded roads as anti-riot police watched from a distance.

NASA wants Chiloba to resign for allegedly taking part in malpractices in the August 8 general election.

President Uhuru Kenyatta and NASA chief Raila Odinga are expected to meet again on October 26 following the Opposition's successful petition at the Supreme Court.

The demonstrators waved placards with messages mocking IEBC, chanted 'Chiloba must go'and marched around Kisumu town.

Nyando MP Fred Outa and woman representative Rosa Buyu led the mass action.

The crowd met for about 10 minutes at Kondele roundabout where they were informed of routes to take to prevent clashes with police.

Police said they will not engage them in running battles as witnessed last week.

To prevent looting and destruction, some of the supporters said they will be on the lookout for goons.

On Friday, NASA supporters broke into Tumaini Supermarket and stole items including food from the eatery during anti-IEBC protests.

Several of them broke into the supermarket, defied workers who tried to stop them and injured some of them.

Police were forced to lob teargas canisters and shoot in the air to disperse them.

ODM distanced itself from the looting, executive director Oduor Ong'wen saying it was part of a broader scheme to delegitimise their demonstrations.

"The deliberate and conspicuous absence of police points to an unacceptable complicity and choreography for which the local police leadership must come out clean," he said in a statement.

Poor fellows who think their redemption lies with Tin god Raila who gives no f**ks about them. Sasa waliharibu mabomba ya maji na kuharibu maduka walikoajiriwa kazi huku wakipora watu mali yao na kama huu sio Ujinga sijui ni nini. Hapa tumesema Raila will never lead Kenya for his reckless utterances and poor leadership qualities which are more radical than terrorism.
