Siaya Senator James Orengo has announced that the National Super Alliance (NASA) will hold anti-IEBC demonstrations daily beginning next week.
Orengo was addressing NASA supporters at Uhuru Park where he was accompanied by Dagoretti North MP Simba Arati, Mombasa Governor Hassan Joho and former Machakos Senator Johnstone Muthama.
This comes as the latest change to the demonstrations, now in their third week, which were to happen thrice every week.
NASA is pushing for the ouster of IEBC CEO Ezra Chiloba and other officials who allegedly bungled the August elections vowing not to participate in the elections if its demands are not met.
On Tuesday, Opposition flag bearer Raila Odinga announced that anti-IEBC demos would be bigger starting from Wednesday.

Odinga made the statement after he quit the repeat presidential poll stating that his withdrawal would ensure the country conducts a free and fair election as per the law.
On Wednesday, demonstrations rocked parts of Kisumu and Nairobi with police lobbing tear gas at protesters who were marching towards IEBC’s offices at Anniversary Towers.
In Kisumu, protestors threw stones inside Kondele Police Station which ensued in running battles between demonstrators and police officers.
This follows an incident in which a NASA demonstrator was shot during the anti-IEBC protests after he allegedly tried to steal a phone along Kenyatta Avenue in Nairobi.
During the same incident, three people were also injured after a car ran over the protesters.
