Description | A group of youth riot, apparently in an effort to disrupt an election in Kiranja. The youth, some of whom were intoxicated, engaged police in fierce fights. Police manning the polling centre had to call for reinforcement from Kerugoya town. Three people were injured during the fracas. The intended effect of the unrest was to aid a local candidate who the youth perceived to be beneficial to farmers. |
