Several schools in Nairobi’s Eastlands area disrupted their normal activities, fearing that President William Ruto’s tour of the area could be accompanied by incidents similar to his Tuesday visit to Mathare.

Similarly, some traders opted not to open their businesses in areas including Umoja, Outering Road, and Embakasi.
