Law enforcers on Thursday sprayed teargas to politicians allied to Deputy President (DP) William Ruto during by-elections for the London Ward in Nakuru county.
Police officers reportedly used teargas to disperse Senate Representatives Susan Kihika and her Elgeyo-Marakwet counterpart Kipchumba Murkomen among other legislators.
The voting operation stalled at the Milimani polling station after voters ran for their safety with teargas ruling the air. The affected legislators are said to be agents for the United Democratic Alliance (UDA) candidate Anthony Nzuki.
Rowdy youths had reportedly roughed up the Langata parliament representative Nixon Korir at the Milimani polling station arousing chaos.
