Kenya: Advisory on Protests in Nairobi CBD Area

Demonstrators are calling for a protest against the government and other entities in the Nairobi CBD area on Thursday, the 21st, via social media platforms.
According to reports, President William Ruto is scheduled to arrive at Parliament around 2:30 PM, and the police are expected to implement strict security measures, including road closures. This may result in traffic disruptions and congestion in the surrounding areas, and there is also a possibility of clashes between demonstrators and the police, as well as opportunistic crimes such as theft or looting during the chaos.
Japanese nationals residing or traveling in Kenya are advised to continue monitoring the latest updates and avoid visiting areas where protests are expected, particularly around the CBD. If you happen to encounter any demonstrations or gatherings, please evacuate the area immediately and take necessary precautions to ensure your safety.
