Suna East MP Junet Mohamed has revealed that NASA will deploy small business owners during Friday demonstations even in Jubilee strongholds.
The outspoken legislator was responding to Gatundu South MP Moses Kuria's claims that he would expand the Nairobi Business community to other counties to contain the NASA demonstrators.
Kuria had stated that: “We shall introduce them even in NASA strongholds to make sure that businesses in those areas are not disrupted.”

However, Mr Mohamed did not divulge any information on the presence of the NASA principals during the demos citing security for the top guns.
"You will see tomorrow if they will show, I cannot speak on it because that will compromise their security," he assured.
On Wednesday, the Gatundu South MP stated that he would launch more business chapters to assist police in securing businesses during the Opposition's anti-IEBC demonstrations.
Speaking in Murang’a County during Jubilee Party’s Mbele Iko Sawa campaigns, Kuria lauded the communities for maintaining law and order during NASA protests in Nairobi.
The MP stated that he would ensure the business chapters are introduced in other counties.
Kuria was accompanied by Murang’a Women Rep Sabina Chege, Nominated MP Julius Sankok, Kiharu MP Ndindi Nyoro and former MPs Danson Mungatana (Garsen) and Ababu Namwamba (Bundalangi)

“We shall introduce them even in NASA strongholds to make sure that businesses in those areas are not disrupted,” Kuria stated.
Members of the Nairobi Business Community, formerly Gema Business Community, have come out in large numbers to counter Opposition supporters, who they accused of planing to destroy their investments during demonstrations.
The community’s chairman Wilfred Kamau said they would join forces with Jubilee supporters from neighboring counties to counter the protests.
