[PHOTOS] Normalcy returns in Mombasa after weeks of protests

The streets of Mombasa remained calm for the better part of Thursday following weeks of protests.

There has been a wave of anti-Finance Bill 2024 protests witnessed across the country.

This is despite President William Ruto declining to sign the Finance Bill 2024 and returning it to Parliament for all the clauses to be deleted.

The Mombasa streets remained peaceful with no demonstrations occurring.

Anti-riot police officers were seen patrolling the streets all day.

The protests left many dead, Kenyans sustaining injuries and businesses counting losses.

On Thursday police banned any demonstrations within the Nairobi CBD and its surroundings.

Acting Police IG Douglas Kanja expressed regret that what started as peaceful demonstrations has led to the loss of lives and destruction of property after the protests were infiltrated by criminals.
