A National Super Alliance (Nasa) political rally in Kabarnet town ended in disarray on Wednesday after its presidential flag-bearer Raila Odinga and his co-principals were heckled. <\/p>\n
Mr Odinga, accompanied by co-principals Musalia Mudavadi and Isaac Ruto, received a hostile reception in the town and had a difficult time addressing the crowd that was chanting Jubilee slogans. <\/p>\n
Some of the people in the crowd threw Nasa-branded caps to the dais as the leaders addressed them. <\/p>\n
Police had a difficult time controlling the crowd and shouted down Mr Ruto, the Bomet governor, calling him a traitor. <\/p>\n
The governor had to cut short his speech after the crowd started chanting pro-Jubilee slogans. <\/p>\n
Mr Odinga attempted to address the crowd, saying the region was tired of insecurity and urged locals to vote for Nasa. <\/p>\n
But this was met with hostility as the crowds shouted and dismissed the speakers, saying they were after their own vested interests. <\/p>\n
The leaders finally abandoned the rally and headed to Eldama Ravine for another meeting. <\/p>\n
Earlier, Mr Odinga, Mr Mudavadi and Mr Ruto held a rally at Chemolingot trading centre. <\/p>\n
Uhuru reiterated the countrys commitment to clean and ethical sports practices. <\/p>\n
Three journalists were heading to a Nasa rally in Baringo. <\/p>\n
