Kenyans yesterday braved the heavily armed military and anti-riot police officers to storm the streets and protest against the government albeit on a reduced scale. At some point, the excited protesters cheered the military officers as they did patrol rounds around the city before they were dispersed by the police. The central business district and its outskirts, especially the State House road, had a heavy presence of both police and military officers. This happened even as the KDF officers, armed to the teeth, patrolled the city streets and major roads in armoured carriages. The military officers and their artillery had assembled at Nyayo Stadium before they moved to the CBD and other roads.
