Still on protests, a section of civil society bosses backing the street action from a distance are reportedly furious at a certain comedian who has been leveraging on public anger to create content. The man, whose antics allegedly started way back during the flooding season, spares no chance to be at the centre of the action, with hilarious theatrics.

Talk of uncouth behaviour. An AP officer attached to the Nairobi county assembly last week shocked all and sundry. The officer, reportedly armed with an AK-47 rifle, allegedly blocked several former MCAs who were visiting the speaker and the clerk from accessing the precincts of the assembly. Despite identifying themselves, he purportedly told them to move aside and salute him before they could get his permission to access the assembly. Shocked and embarrassed, the former legislators walked away and vowed to have the man removed from the city legislature.
