Demonstration souvenirs: Random items people steal during protests

Demonstrators may carry various items home depending on their intentions, circumstances, and the nature of the protest.

As the Azimio brigade maps out an intense strategy for back to back street demonstrations from Wednesday, July 19, property destruction and looting by a section of those participating remains the biggest worry of businesspeople and Kenyans in general.

Interestingly, after every demonstration, the participants always have something to take home, literally. Call it souvenirs. Talk of looted property and sometimes, unimaginable items that include but not limited to police shields, signposts, spent bullet cartridges and even teargas canisters.
