Checkpoints near Nairobi State House amid protests fears

In anticipation of planned opposition protests, armed police officers have set up checkpoints on roads heading to State House in the nation's capital, Nairobi.

At different locations on the roads, drivers are stopped and searched.

It comes after the opposition's 14-day deadline passed without the government responding to its concerns about the high expense of living.
