Youth group condemns political tension ahead of elections, urges tolerance

The caucus, dubbed United Youth Front, has called for political activities that are devoid of violence and ethnic balkanization.

The young Turks warned that a country founded on tribalism and ethnicity is bound to retard development.

The caucus urged the political players from both sides to advance policies that will transform the lives of Kenyans regardless of the regions.

Led by their secretary general Brian Olang' and chairman Evans Owuor have called for the need to address the political hostilities pitting different camps during the ongoing electioneering calendar.

The United Youth Front, which has representation from across the country, has cautioned young people against being used to wreak havoc and cause violence during political rallies, adding that young people should be keen to interrogate the policies being championed by the political class.
