Interior Cabinet Secretary Kipchumba Murkomen made a surprise early morning tour of Nairobi's Central Business District on Wednesday, ahead of protests commemorating the first anniversary of the 2024 Gen Z-led demonstrations.
Accompanied by Deputy Inspector General of Police Gilbert Masengeli, Murkomen walked to Jogoo House A, where he held a security briefing with Inspector General of Police Douglas Kanja.
Before the meeting, the CS stopped by Harambee House and interacted with police officers on duty. The government has stepped up surveillance across Nairobi, with police mounting roadblocks around sensitive installations, including Parliament and State House.
This follows online calls for a symbolic march to State House as part of Wednesday's commemorations.
