Protests have erupted along Argwings Kodhek Road in Kilimani after the City Council officers demolished temporary roads along the busy route.

🇰🇪 Breaking It Down

Footage obtained by Kenyans.co.ke on August 25 shows the officers in large numbers destroying the shops using their own hands, and some with tools such as machetes and heavy metal.

Further, the images show them making a number of arrests, with those arrested placed inside their semi-truck amid the demolitions along Chaka Place.

As the commotion ensues, the angry traders are also seen barricading that section of the busy road with burning tyres and metal structures, hindering the movement of vehicles to and from the Nairobi Central Business District.
