President Uhuru Kenyatta has said the country will not plunge into politically-instigated violence under his watch.

Even as he exuded confidence that he would win in the October 26 election, Uhuru said many Kenyans were scared of the unfolding scenario that has raised political temperatures, but assured them that he would do anything in his powers to protect lives and property.
