Kenya’s opposition leader Raila Odinga has condemned the invasion of the property of the former president Uhuru Kenyatta.

In an interview with the BBC, he said he believed the attack was carried out by “goons” hired by the government.

Mr Kenyatta is an ally of Odinga’s. Monday was the second day of anti-government protests called for by Mr Odinga over claims he was cheated at the last election as well as rising living costs in the country.

The looting of Mr Kenyatta’s large farm is seen as retaliation for his support for Mr Odinga.

More protests are planned, the next on Thursday. But the government has condemned the violence and disruption caused by the demonstrations.
