Protesting causing death to innocent civilians in the name of demo, please let’s only be affected with economy and not deaths.
Five people were on Wednesday killed in separate standoffs between police and anti-government protestors in Machakos and Kajiado Counties.
The people seem really determined to ensure that they are able to push their demonstrations.
Three of the deceased persons were gunned down around the Mlolongo Expressway Toll Station after barricading and vandalising the road which in turn disrupted traffic on the route.
Several protestors are arrested along Jogoo Road after police engage the rowdy youth in running battles.
Police say that the protestors, who allegedly also hurled stones at a Quick Mart Supermarket adjacent to the toll station, wanted to loot the booth after destroying the Mlolongo Expressway wall.
This is to ensure that the cost of living is affordable. Kenyans have been complaining about the high level of taxation and also the increased cost of items. They want the Kenya Kwanza government delivers.
Police have however secured the critical infrastructure unit and closed the expressway, further paralysing traffic on the route that connects Mlolongo to Nairobi.
Rowdy protestors have broken into the Eastmart Supermarket branch in Kitengela town, as Azimio One Kenya Coalition anti-government demonstrations continue.
The two remaining casualties likewise lost their lives in similar demonstrations in Kitengela.
