MoH demo fails to get off the blocks as prison costume wearing protesters hit police wall
As early as 9am, activists started trickling in at the Freedom Corner in Uhuru Park, where red t-shirts would be handed over to them; the theme colour of the day.
There were no police presence near the venue and only the water cannons that could be seen were from a far distance.
No one knew what was awaiting them.
Momentum was high at this time and journalists were already rolling ready to capture every moment and speech from the protesters.
But teargas Monday moments happened when Police lobbed teargas just as the activist started making movements towards Kenyatta Avenue roundabout.
It started with one teargas canister and more came raining on all that moved within the park.
The police zeroed down on them to ensure the only exit available was towards Upper Hill and not the Central Business District; perhaps to ensure business was not interrupted.
