Kenyan protesters have clashed with club-carrying young men, believed to be loyal to the government, in the centre of the capital, Nairobi. The demonstration, held in the wake of the death in custody 10 days ago of blogger and teacher Albert Ojwang, was called to demand the sacking of a top police officer.

A Kenyan vendor in Nairobi CBD has been shot dead by a police officer during protests calling for justice over the death of teacher Albert Ojwang.  In multiple videos shared online, two officers are seen approaching the man who was standing on the sidewalk along the streets.

Outrage over the death of a Kenyan teacher and activist in police custody sparked protests in the capital Nairobi this week after doctors refuted a police claim that he had died in his cell from a self-inflicted head injury.
