The Azimio la Umoja One Kenya leadership stayed away from the anti-government demonstrations on Thursday, keeping Kenyans guessing about their game plan even as police hunt for them hit a dead end.

However, some Azimio leaders were not lucky. A number of allies of opposition chief, Raila Odinga were arrested even as the leaders termed day one of demos a huge success.
