Lamu County shut down in curfew protests

Boats at Lamu Sea front in lamu Island recently

Activities at the Lamu County headquarters were paralysed following a daylong demonstration as a section of residents challenged the extension of a dusk-to-dawn curfew by Inspector General of Police David Kimaiyo by a month.

Residents grounded all the boats, which provide the only mode of transport to the busy island, and closed down the market and other businesses.
