Government spokesperson Colonel (Rtd) Cyrus Oguna has been forced to issue an update on Covid-19 regulations after politicians seemed to have resumed political rallies.
Through his official social media handles, Oguna appealed to the members of the public and the political class to continue adhering to the stipulated Covid-19 regulations.
He reiterated that all public gatherings including political rallies remain suspended in the country to cut the chain of transmission and reduce the rising cases of the deadly coronavirus.
“We appeal to members of the public, including the political class, to adhere to the stipulated #COVID19 regulations. As a reminder, all public gatherings, including political rallies remain suspended. This is to ensure that we cut the chain of transmission and reduce the rising cases of #COVID-19 infection in the country,” he tweeted.
Over the weekend, the Okoa Kenya Alliance (OKA) leaders and their allies retreated to Naivasha to discuss their political path ahead of 2022.
At the same time, ODM leader Raila Odinga and his team were in Nakuru county on Tuesday August 17, where Raila addressed a road-side rally.
Deputy President William Ruto on the other hand has been meeting different political leaders at his Karen residence in Nairobi to chat his political path ahead of 2022 presidential polls.
The acts have caused an uproar among netizens, who have now flocked social media to demand for the lifting of the curfew.
With the Covid-19 cases continuing to spike in Kenya, do you think it is right to relax the stipulated Covid-19 regulations?
