A Jubilee Party politician has revealed the tactics that National Super Alliance (NASA) leaders are using to force opposition supporters in Mombasa to participate in anti-IEBC demonstrations.
Abdulsalaam Kassim a former Senatorial candidate claimed that one of the CDF offices in Mombasa has been denying residents services unless they participate in demonstrations.
Kassim stated that NASA leaders in Mombasa were "out to impress their master Raila Odinga" at the expense of residents
He added that NASA lawmakers should focus on initiating projects instead of leading demonstrations.
"The demonstrations do not help the people of Mombasa. They are only used to ensure certain people give CDF money to certain people in the name of organising demos," Kassim stated.
“People are not getting services unless they participate in the demos. I will expose them soon," he added.

On Wednesday, Siaya Senator James Orengo announced that the National Super Alliance (NASA) will hold anti-IEBC demonstrations daily beginning next week.
On Friday, leaders allied to the National Super Alliance (NASA) in Mombasa County were teargassed by police as they were gathering to start anti-IEBC demos.
Mombasa Deputy Governor William Kingi, Senator Mohammed Faki and Mvita MP Abdulswamad Nassir were dispersed together with their supporters as they converged on Uhuru Gardens along Moi Avenue in the coastal city.
This followed an order by acting Interior CS Fred Matiang'i who had banned demonstrations around the Nairobi, Mombasa and Kisumu CBDs.
