Millie Odhiambo has raised concern over what she described as a growing culture of using hired goons to settle political and commercial disputes in the country.
The lawmaker, who also serves as the National Assembly Minority Whip, warned that failure to curb the trend could lead to a breakdown of law and order similar to the situation in Haiti.
In a statement posted on her Facebook page, Odhiambo cited recent incidents in which groups of armed individuals allegedly stormed private premises during disputes.
She pointed to a case in Kisumu where more than 100 individuals reportedly raided a hotel owned by former Principal Secretary Irungu Nyakera over an alleged rent dispute.
According to Nyakera, the individuals claimed they were enforcing a disagreement between him and the landlord, the Lake Basin Development Authority.
Speaking to journalists at the Fairways Hotel in Kisumu, Nyakera said he found the premises vandalised after the confrontation.
He claimed that furniture in the restaurant had been overturned, the bar ransacked and alcoholic drinks taken, leaving bottles scattered across the floor.
Nyakera estimated the damage and losses at approximately Sh50 million.
On the same day, another incident occurred in Nairobi involving property linked to former Cabinet minister Raphael Tuju.
Video footage circulating online showed Tuju confronting a group of individuals at Dari Business Park in the Karen area, ordering them to leave the premises.
Tuju said the group claimed to be acting on behalf of a person who alleged ownership of the property, although the matter is currently before the courts.
In recent months, several political rallies and church gatherings have also reportedly been disrupted by groups described as hired goons.
Opposition leaders have previously alleged that such groups operate with the support or tolerance of security agencies, claims authorities have denied.
Earlier this week, members of the Linda Mwananchi caucus said individuals believed to be goons attempted to storm one of their meetings at a Nairobi hotel but were prevented from entering.
In another incident about ten days ago, nearly 200 armed individuals were seen walking through the streets of Kisii ahead of a United Opposition rally.
The situation later escalated into clashes between the group and opposition supporters, resulting in several injuries.
