Security has been stepped up in various parts of Kenya ahead of tomorrow’s general election including the lakeside city of Kisumu.
It’s the home and stronghold of presidential candidate Raila Odinga.
Kisumu has also witnessed violent post-election protests in the past and it is among the six counties that have been marked as high risk with potential for some degree of electoral violence.
Earlier, uniformed security officers were deployed to different areas and polling stations.
Last week, the US embassy in Nairobi issued a warning to its citizens against travelling to Kisumu. END.
