Akothee had a dreadful encounter with protesters who blocked Kendu Bay highway.
The protesters barricaded the highway very early in the morning ahead of Wednesday’s demos planned by Azimio coalition.
Akothee met protesters carrying crude weapons while plying the Kendu Bay highway.
She said she was scared stiff even though the goons allowed her to pass unharmed.

Azimio La Umoja One Kenya Coalition Party announced that it will continue with the countrywide anti-government protests on today Wednesday July 12, 2023, vowing to intensify the demos from what was witnessed last Friday July 7, 2023, during Saba Saba Day.
Raila Odinga called on Kenyans to brace themselves for demonstrations in all parts of the country as the coalition embarks on a mass signature collection excise to delegitimize the ruling Kenya Kwanza government.
He thanked Kenyans for turning up in large numbers to take part in Friday’s protests saying: “We thank Kenyans and assure that mapambano itaendelea. Tutakuwa uwanjani tena wiki ijayo siku ya jumatano.”
Raila criticized the pockets of violence witnessed during Friday’s demos where he says his vehicle was damaged by live bullets fired by police.
“The people of Kenya have a right to picket, demonstrate and petition. Article 1 of the Constitution says that the sovereignty in Kenya is vested in the people of Kenya and the people can either exercise it directly or through their elected representatives,” he said.
