Traffic flow along some major roads outside Nairobi County has also been paralysed after Sabasaba day protests broke out in different parts of the country.
Photos obtained by Kenyans.co.ke, on Monday, July 7, showed protesters blocking the Karatina-Nairobi Highway and the Embu-Nairobi highway using stones as they burned tyres and wood.
Businesses along the roads have been forced to close due to safety concerns.
Police officers were also spotted on the scene trying to calm the situation but with little success. "It started so early and It does not look good, the situation is intensifying as time goes by," one protestor in Mwea was heard saying.
