After making futile attempts to access the Nairobi Central Business District (CBD) during Monday's demonstration, Opposition leader Raila Odinga retreated to the city's Eastlands area.
The plan had been that demonstrators would converge in the CBD before marching to State House, but a police repulsion kept most protestors within the estates. And so there had been no notice issued to residents of Kamkunji, Eastleigh, Mathare or Ruaraka of Raila's visit to the said estates.
