The National Cohesion and Integration Commission (NCIC) jointly with National Government Administration Officer (NGAO) has called for peace and harmony especially when the country is preparing for general elections.

The warning comes amid the rising political temperatures in the country with youth being the most targeted by politicians.

Similarly, the two organizations have warned politicians for funding youth to cause violence in the country to settle their selfish interests.

During a sensitization meeting on peace held in Eldoret, Uasin Gishu county, Stephen Kihara NCIC commissioner said, a time he wonders why those leaders seeking elective positions decide to undermine peace in the country.

“It’s important for politicians to know we have continued monitoring to ensure that those who are sending money to the youth to cause chaos do not get away with it,” Kihara said.
