Despite the tight security witnessed, most of the NASA demonstrators were protesting outside the Supreme court with some burning Jubilee t-shirts before the attack.

They lifted banners written “Bunge la wanainchi in solidarity with the supreme court ruling, Mr president stop intimating judges!!!!.” as they moved around chanting in the street of Nairobi.

“We are here also to protect the judges, let nothing happen to them.” One of the demonstrators was overheard saying.

The protest comes just a day after a group of Jubilee supporters demonstrated outside the Supreme Court demanding a recount of presidential votes.

The group of individuals was protesting over Supreme Court’s decision to cancel president Uhuru Kenyattas win.
