Kenyan police fired tear gas and water cannon at protesters and opposition leader Raila Odinga's convoy on Monday as he pressed ahead with an anti-government rally despite a ban

Anti-riot police officers react to the effects of tear gas after one of their canisters fired at protesters was lobbed back at them during confrontations at a mass rally called by the opposition leader Raila Odinga who claims the last Kenyan presidential election was stolen from him and blames the government for the hike of living costs in the country, in Mathare, Nairobi, on March 27, 2023.

Security was tight with riot police deployed in strategic points around Nairobi after last week’s demonstrations turned violent in some neighbourhoods. And in Kisumu, where a university student was killed in the protests last week, police used tear gas to disperse the crowds. “I am just weighing the situation before I decide because the sight of these policemen patrolling around is a sign that it may not end up well.”
