The US is worried that there are desperate factions within the PF who are intent on capturing power at any cost. It has noted that each of these factions has been grooming unemployed youths into reserve militias. More seriously, it has noted that there has been an increase in the importation of machetes in the country. Importation of machetes has in recent times in Africa preceded genocide and mass slaughters. It believes that the situation gifts the opposition to wrestle power from the ruling party, but it is unlikely that the election will be free and fair as it will be colored by mass violence.
