Kenya: Industry associations affirm right to protest but decry destruction of property

"Businesses count losses as private sector calls for end to looting"

The Kenya Private Sector Alliance (KEPSA) chief executive Carole Kariuki said: "We support peaceful protests without destruction of the very businesses that feed our families." 

The Kenya Association of Manufacturers (KAM) has on the other hand raised concerns over violence during protests leading to loss of lives and destruction of property, even as it acknowledges the right to picket, as enshrined in Article 37 of the Kenyan Constitution, 2010, and by provisions of the Public Order Act.

“Every person has the right, peaceably and unarmed, to assemble, to demonstrate, to picket, and to present petitions to public authorities. This must be done while safeguarding the life and safety of every Kenyan and without destruction of property and enterprises,” KAM board of directors said in a statement.
