Anti-IEBC protesters have looted Tumaini Supermarket and an eatery in Kisumu, destroying property.
According to some of the locals, angry youths vented their anger on the businesses after they were denied access to IEBC offices in the county.
The looting happened as Opposition protests to push for reforms in the Independent Electoral and Boundaries Commission (IEBC) ahead of a fresh presidential poll.
In Kisumu, hundreds of protesters turned up in large numbers and paralysed transport along the Kisumu-Kakamega highway on Friday.
The protesters lit bonfires and blocked roads using boulders and burnt tyres.
