The Central Organization of Trade Unions (COTU) Secretary General Francis Atwoli has urged Kenyans to shun Azimio la Umoja-One Kenya coalition party anti-government protests on Tuesday, and instead go to work. Atwoli, a former political ally of Azimio leader Raila Odinga and former President Uhuru Kenyatta, says that the demonstrations will not change the status quo. Instead, he has called on the supremos to shun political battles and engage in dialogue for peace to prevail and create a conducive working environment. "Workers, please go to work on Tuesday, or you may be sacked because you went to protest. We must grow the economy and employ all those looking for jobs," Atwoli said.
