Businesses were interrupted Wednesday, July 12, in several parts of the country as Kenyans participated in demonstrations called by Azimio La Umoja One Kenya Alliance. Last week while holding their rally in Nairobi, Azimio leaders announced countrywide anti-government protests.

As is the norm, demonstrations were expected to be in high gear in Azimio strongholds as was witnessed last Friday, July 7 - in Kisumu where Azimio principal Raila Odinga enjoys a cultic following, at least two people were killed during the demonstrations according to Interior Cabinet Secretary Kithure Kindiki.
