Chaos erupted at Chwele, Bungoma County, on Friday after rowdy youth attempted to disrupt the Opposition's convoy during the second day of their Mulembe Nation tour. 

The Opposition's motorcade, comprising Rigathi Gachagua (DCP leader), Kalonzo Musyoka (Wiper), Fred Matiang'i (former Interior CS), George Natembeya (Trans Nzoia Governor), Justin Muturi (former Attorney General) among others, was en route to Bungoma when rowdy youth pelted their vehicles with stones. 

The commotion caused a traffic snarl-up as the Opposition leaders' team tried to restore order. 

Following the incident, the leaders proceeded to engage with the residents, proceeding with the clarion call for President William Ruto's exit from office. 

"Hapa ni Wantam! Kasongo aende asiende. Mimi na Muturi tumetumwa na watu wa mlima, pale mlimani tumefungia Kasongo. Kifunguo ikona Justin Muturi. Funguo ikipotea, utajibu watu wa Bungoma," Gachagua stated. 

On day 2 of their Mulembe Nation tour, the Opposition leaders kicked off in Butula Constituency, Busia County, with the official opening of the DAP-K offices. They proceeded to Bungoma County and concluded the day in Kiminini, Trans Nzoia County.
