Drama ensued in Kawangware area, Nairobi, after a group of residents attacked the entourage of Education CS Fred Matiang’i who was in the area to supervise rehearsals for KCPE candidates.

According to reports, the crowd was allegedly angered by the CS who failed to address them when he toured the area that was rocked by ugly scenes in alleged retaliatory attacks between rival gangs.

Dr. Matiang’i had visited Gatina Primary School to assure Standard Eight candidates set to sit their KCPE exams tomorrow (Tuesday, October 31) of an exam-friendly environment.

Police used teargas to disperse the protesters who were stoning cars and blocking roads in the area.
