Current Situation in Nairobi CBD;Police Block Access to State House Ahead of Azimio Protests & Kibra Residents Spend Night in Cold in Preparation for Today’s Statehouse March

Good morning

Kenyans and other concerned parties have all eyes on Azimio leader Raila Odinga who declared the 20th March a public holiday and called upon his supporters to turn up for the protest in large numbers.

This is despite a warning issued by Nairobi police boss Bungei who also declared the planned protest illegal citing failure to follow due procedure.

In response to the police statement where  Kenyans were told to keep off from the demonstrations, Raila and his allies remained firm on their plan to take to the streets adding that it is part of the citizen’s constitutional rights to hold peaceful demonstrations.

The opposition party leader had told Kenyans to gather at Nairobi CBD before they make their way to the state house; a statement that contradicts his earlier remarks where he indicated that only a select number of delegations will deliver a message to the head of state.

Through this peaceful demonstrations, Raila, his allies and supporters hope that it will push the government to lower the cost of living and take action on the demands made by the Azimio party leader. Despite the uncertainty of what the outcome of this protest will be, Kenyans have been urged to maintain peace.
