Lawmakers allied to the Democracy for Citizens Party (DCP) have said that they will not succumb to intimidation by the state following an attack orchestrated on East Africa Legislative Assembly (EALA) MP Kanini Kega on Monday night.

The members of Parliament who spoke yesterday after Kega recorded a statement at the Oljororok police station also vowed to sustain their presence in Ol Kalou as well as protect their votes come election day Thursday.

Manyatta MP John Mukunji, Naivasha MP Jane Kihara, Kiambu Senator Karungu Thang’wa and EALA MP Kega accused police officers of being behind Monday’s attack, claiming that it was a ploy to scare them out of Ol Kalou ahead of the decisive Thursday mini-poll.
