Message: [QUOTE="Munyaradzi Mafaro, post: 45992, member: 636"] A security guard died Wednesday after being shot during protests at Kenya Power headquarters in Nairobi. Fred Wamale Wanyonyi was working at the Stima Plaza building entrance when gunfire struck him around 4:30 pm. The guard worked for Hatari Security company and was protecting the Kolobot Road entrance. Emergency workers rushed him to Mama Lucy Kibaki Hospital where doctors declared him dead upon arrival. Kenya Power expressed sadness about the death and promised to help investigators find out what happened. The shooting occurred during large demonstrations marking one year since the June 25, 2024 youth protests. Young people organized the events through social media to protest government problems, joblessness and police violence. Protesters filled Nairobi streets as police used barriers and force to control crowds. Roads closed throughout the city as officers deployed heavily around the business district. The protests caused major disruptions to normal activities across the capital. The Kenya National Commission on Human Rights reported eight deaths nationwide during Wednesday's demonstrations. More than 400 people suffered injuries during the violent clashes between protesters and security forces. Police officers and journalists were among those hurt during the confrontations. The human rights group documented the casualties as protests spread beyond Nairobi to other parts of the country. Authorities continue investigating all deaths that occurred during the anniversary demonstrations. [/QUOTE]
