Kenyans travelling from Nakuru to Nairobi have been forced to prove their nationality by showing their identification cards at a police roadblock in Rironi Town along Nairobi Nakuru highway.
This comes amid the Sabasaba planned demos with several police blocks in major highways witnessed, preventing Kenyans from accessing the Nairobi Central Business District.
At Rironi Town along Nairobi-Nakuru highway, police set up a road block forcing passengers to alight from their vehicles and display their national identification cards.
