“Travelled to Gilgil to attend a relative’s pass out parade. I took pics of the chaos and dirt all over. I was arrested. Produced my press card (I renew my membership every year.) They made some calls, deleted my pics and said l have been banned from attending the event,” Mwangi posted.

Describing the state of the venue,  Mwangi said that the place was filled with chaos, dirt, police confiscating food, drinks and throwing everything on the floor. No dust bins, no order, and very aggressive language by law enforcers, barking at people. Kenya Police, NYS cadets holding  sticks to push and hit people.
