Thousands of people took to the streets in Nairobi to mark one year since deadly unrest, which saw at least 60 people die in clashes between security forces and anti-government protesters. The protests were sparked by the death of a blogger, Albert Ojwang, in police custody, and the government's handling of the incident has intensified scrutiny of police conduct. The protests, which were largely peaceful, come as President William Ruto faces growing frustration over his government's failure to deliver on promises of economic recovery and address corruption, inflation, and youth unemployment.
