As reported by Star, a sound of a trader comes in the video saying that the man shot by a police officer is a mechanic and not a protester.

Since morning, Kibra protestors have taken to the streets of Olympic playing cat and rat games with police officers.

The protesters have been battling police officers who have been installed in the place for safety, by throwing countless number of stones at the officers.

It is reported that one of the NTV vehicles has had front glass stoned in the continuous raining stones thrown against police officers in the area.

Even as many awaits to see what opposition leader Raila Odinga will have to do together with his Azimio team for the said mass action, many shops have been witnessed closed not only in Kibra but in very many places across the country including CBD area in Nairobi
