It is now a running battle as police use tear gas canisters to disperse protestors along Kimathi Street in Nairobi’s CBD.
Protesters are seen fleeing to avoid the wrath of anti-riot police officers.
Business activities along the street have also been crippled, with police filling the area and clouds of tear gas smoke filling the air.
Despite the heavy police presence and major roads being blocked, protestors are still making their way into the city, chanting anti-government slogans, ready to take part in the Gen Z commemoration.
