In daring scenes, protesters attacked police stations during running battles that left more than 80 officers nursing injuries on Wednesday. The stations targeted were in Nairobi, Nyandarua, Nyeri, Makueni, Kajiado and Nakuru counties where anti-riot police had a rough time suppressing the demonstrators who destroyed about 20 police vehicles while vandalising road furniture. The Kikuyu Law Courts in Kiambu County, and several national and county government office also came under attack as police struggled to contain the demonstrators.
The law courts was reduced to ashes with all structures ruined by the inferno including registry, customer care desk, succession and records offices, procurement offices, accounts offices, mediation offices, children's cells, and all the exhibits.
The perimeter wall was also brought down as well as toilets and security desk.
Chief Justice Martha Koome toured the courts yesterday to assess damaged caused.
