Kenyan police set up roadblocks and blocked key entry points into Nairobi on Thursday, June 25, significantly disrupting transport for thousands of commuters on the second anniversary of the Gen Z protests.

• Roadblocks were mounted on major highways including Mombasa Road, Thika Road, and Lang’ata Road, as well as routes connecting Nairobi to Athi River and Mlolongo.
• Key individuals involved include police operating under the direction of Interior CS Kipchumba Murkomen.
• Disruptions led to stranded commuters, with some boarding lorries and trucks to reach their workplaces after public service vehicles were grounded.

The National Police Service has blocked access to Nairobi's Central Business District (CBD) using the Public Order Act, causing significant traffic disruptions and forcing many commuters to walk.

• Key roads including Thika Road, Mombasa Road, Lang'ata Road, and Waiyaki Way are barricaded and inaccessible to public service vehicles (PSVs) and private cars.
• The National Police Service implemented the restrictions, turning back vehicles and commuters at various points.
• Major routes within the CBD itself, such as Haile Selassie Avenue and Uhuru Highway, are heavily secured with razor wire and mesh.

Kenyan police deployed apparent sonic cannons on June 25 in Nairobi CBD to disperse protesters marking the anniversary of last year's anti-Finance Bill demonstrations.

• An MRAP Armored Personnel Carrier fitted with a loudspeaker and acoustic device broadcasted instructions for demonstrators to leave.
• Police stated they were acting on protest notifications indicating a 1 pm end time, which protesters rejected, citing the Public Order Act permitting demonstrations until 6 pm.
• The deployment followed a largely subdued morning marked by road closures and restricted access to the city centre, with teargas also used to disperse a group of activists and journalists.
