Firstly, NPS has called upon the Kenyans not to panic or migrate from their homes or ordinary places of residence in fear and anticipation of chaos.
Aside from that the police service urged Kenyans to cooperate with the law enforcement and report any suspicious activities in their areas during the period.

NPS further directed Kenyans to follow the Supreme court’s proceedings from their homes and avoid gathering around the Supreme court during the ruling or any public place.
Finally, NPS noted that access to the Supreme court shall be limited and all roads leading to the court shall be closed .
“Traffic police shall be deployed adequately to direct traffic around the court facility,” Gabow noted.
The Service said that it had taken all the necessary steps and measures to enhance security across the country and applauded Kenyans for their peaceful conduct during and after the general elections.
