Ten police officers have been quarantined in a hospital in Rongai after showing cholera symptoms.
The officers were part of a team that had been camping in hostels at the Multimedia University ready for action over the Supreme Court ruling.

Nairobi County health executive Bernard Muia said the officers had been quarantined at the hospital as further tests are run on them.
“We don’t know where they got their food but further tests and investigations are being conducted to contain any spread,” he said.
