The planned anti-IEBC demonstrations by CORD happened today in various counties including Nairobi, Mombasa and Kisumu.
This comes as Police in Nairobi warned off would-be protesters since they had allegedly not been notified about the planned demos as stipulated by law.
Kenyans took to social media to express their different opinions through the hashtag #CORDdemos:
Nai is a ghost town..police positioned n tension building... #CORDdemos
