"Nobody should destroy anyone's property. We must demonstrate but we must avoid destruction of property," Were said.

Gogo told the government to reduce the cost of living for Kenyans if it wants the demonstrations to cease.

The MP, who spoke during the demonstrations at God Bondo trading centre in her constituency, expressed concerns that life had become unbearable for many Kenyans due to heavy taxation imposed on them by the Ruto government.

Taxation by government

"We want the government to reduce the cost of living. Many Kenyans cannot put food on the table because of taxation by the government," Gogo said.

Osogo also led residents in the demonstration in Kendu Bay town where she told President Ruto to take time and listen to Kenyans' grievances, especially on the issue of the high cost of living.

"The President must be able to listen, otherwise, things will get worse. Kenyans are going through so much and this government must address the issues that have been raised," Osogo said
