A multi-agency security team comprising various police units has been deployed across Nairobi in anticipation of the youth-led protests scheduled for Thursday. The demonstrators, expressing their anger and dissatisfaction with President William Ruto’s government, plan to stage a daring march to State House as the climax of a seven-day protest.

Following the deadly rallies on Tuesday, when protesters invaded Parliament in opposition to the Finance Bill 2024, security forces are determined to prevent any attempts to access State House.

Elite security teams have sealed off all roads leading to and connecting with State House, diverting motorists to alternative routes. Heavily armed officers have been strategically placed near State House, prohibiting anyone from approaching the entrances. Military security equipment has also been deployed to barricade the surrounding roads.

Despite President Ruto’s concession to withdraw the contentious bill, protesters have vowed to continue their rallies, expressing a vote of no confidence in the Kenya Kwanza government. The plan to march to State House has sparked mixed opinions, with some voicing fears of potential loss of lives and labeling such an act as treasonous.

When they arrived at the scene, they were astonished to find a cooking pot filled with meat and some vegetables. At the scene, was a human skull and blood-stained clothes as well as the deceased’s gumboots. Police interrogated the suspect on his father’s whereabouts but he noted that he was also unaware as he was still searching for him. The rest of the missing body parts first spotted by the locals was found dumped in a sack and covered with stones inside Nithi River. One of the area residents who claimed that the suspect began digging the tunnel in 2017 stated that the suspect and his victim had an argument about the condition of the tunnel before he went missing. “The two had quarrelled after the man stopped his father from cutting the Napier grass around the tunnel,” Johnson Mutembei a resident told a local publication. The suspect is currently in custody pending arraignment in court to face murder charges. “We have arrested a man who is suspected to have killed his father, cooked part of the body and hidden some in a tunnel,” Muthambi Sub-County Police Commander stated.
