KENYA: PRO AND ANTI-GOVERNMENT PROTESTERS CLASH AS ANTI-TAX DEMONSTRATIONS ENTERS SIXTH WEEK. (PHOTO).


 Kenyaa: Pro- and anti-government protesters clash as anti-tax demonstrations enters sixth week


Kenya's police fired tear gas to prevent scuffles between groups of protesters and government supporters in the capital Nairobi on Tuesday, as youth-led demonstrations against alleged corruption and misgovernance dragged into their sixth week.


For the first time since protests began on June 18, a group of government supporters, mostly on motorcycles, paraded through downtown Nairobi blowing whistles and plastic horns and carrying placards reading "We support the president" and "Enough is enough."


Anti-government protesters chanted what has become their most defining mantra: "Ruto must go."


Protests, which began in opposition to tax hikes and climaxed in the storming of parliament, have continued despite President William Ruto abandoning the $2.7 billion finance bill in June.


At the time, he also fired almost all of his cabinet, although he retained many holdovers from the prior administration when he named part of his new line up last Friday. On Tuesday, Ruto announced further changes including swapping his defence and environment ministers.


Opposition leader Raila Odinga, who earlier had called for talks, denied allegations that he had been bribed to join Ruto in forming a broad-based government and expressed his support to protesters, providing a list of demands that he said must be met by the government before dialogue.


The opposition is demanding that families of the killed protesters be compensated and that charges against those arrested during protests be dropped.
