Minister of Home Affairs and Cultural Heritage, Cain Mathema issued a statement warning politicians and civic organisations against demonstrating to unseat a constitutionally elected Government.
Mathema said police has been ordered to arrest organisers of the demonstrations. Said Mathema:
We are aware that there are some political leaders and civic organisations that are agitating for the unseating of a constitutionally elected government through demonstrations. The government is fully aware that some elements that want to register their displeasure on recently announced economic austerity measures and whip public emotion to aid their selfish political expediency. Anyone found inciting violence, intimidating people going about their business, advocating for illegal gatherings and influencing civil servants to go on strike will face the full wrath of the law. Law enforcement agencies will not hesitate to hold accountable convenors of illegal gatherings responsible for any ensuing actions, which include violence and destruction of property in the country, particularly Central Business District.
