For the better part of Monday morning, police officers camped at different areas in Nairobi ahead of the expected protests by the Azimio la Umoja coalition.

A spot check by Citizen Digital saw GSU officers around the Kenyatta International Conventional Centre (KICC) and other areas within the Central Business District (CBD).

Another contingent of police officers was also deployed at Mlango Kubwa, Mathare, Juja Rd and Kamkunji areas.

All roads connecting to State House were also barricaded including a section of State House road, University Way, Processional way, Arboretum Road and others.

The situation is however calm as traffic flow is seamless and the movement of persons seemed normal.

In Kisumu, business operations seemed to be frozen as most shops remained closed along Oginga Odinga Street and other streets.
