LIVE BLOG: Uhuru’s Security Makes Last Minute Changes in Sagana

President Uhuru Kenyatta’s security team made last-minute changes during the Sagana 3 meeting at Sagana State Lounge.

On Wednesday, February 23, the security team was directed to allow members of the public who flocked to the highly guarded facility without invitation cards. 

Thousands of people started arriving at the event as early as 4am causing a major traffic snarl-up, as those who did not have invitation cards were locked out.

By around 11am, those locked outside the gate were estimated to be around 5,000 promoting the organizers to allow them in, a development which also caused delays on the schedule.

The President was expected to start his speech at 11am, but the organizers delayed the address to allow more time to accommodate the gatecrashers.
