Uproar has greeted the manner in which police officers executed curfew orders on Friday, with some rights groups calling for civic education for them and the public.
In Nyanza, lobbies said the government must protect civilians’ rights in effecting the indefinite 7pm-5am curfew aimed at curbing spread of the deadly coronavirus.
In an update on Saturday, the Health ministry said the number of confirmed cases in the country had risen to 38 as seven more people had tested positive for Covid-19.
Cabinet Secretary Mutahi Kagwe did not speak in detail about the curfew but noted, “If we want to save Kenyans and avoid the experiences in other countries, we must social-distance and stay at home when told to.”
DESPERATION
The first day of the curfew was chaotic as some commuters were stranded at bus stops during the rush hour after work, with public transporters adhering to the directive.
