A Linda Mwananchi political rally in Meru town was briefly disrupted on Sunday after a teargas canister was lobbed into a crowd gathered at Makutano, forcing supporters to scatter as clouds of gas engulfed the meeting.
In Meru, the explosion caused panic among supporters before Nairobi Senator Edwin Sifuna urged them to remain calm.
“Wananchi, msikimbie... hawawezi tutisha,” Sifuna told the crowd, as leaders called on supporters not to be intimidated.
