Nairobi grinds to a halt as police mount heavy roadblocks across Thika Road, Jogoo Road, Lang'ata Road, Mombasa Road, Waiyaki Way, Kiambu Road, and routes to JKIA ahead of the planned Saba Saba demonstrations on July 7, 2026. Commuters are stranded for hours as vehicles are searched and passengers forced to alight at checkpoints in Blue Post, Ruiru, Githurai, and Allsops. This comes after Nairobi Regional Police Commander Issa Mohamud declared the protests illegal, while a coalition of human rights organizations insists the demonstrations are lawfully notified and will proceed. Watch for the full breakdown of what's happening on the ground, why police say the checkpoints are necessary, and what the human rights groups are demanding. Stay tuned for updates as the situation develops throughout the day.
