Protesters have overwhelmed security officers and have stormed into Parliament Buildings.
Thousands of protesters accessed the Parliament precinct at around 3:00 pm on Tuesday, June 25, 2024.
The protesters who were largely made up of young people were recorded running in different directions inside the Parliament Building after overpowering the law enforcement officers who had formed layers of defence around the area.

Some of the protesters were also pictured inside the cafeteria feasting on what appeared to be food meant for Members of Parliament.
While engaging the police in running battles inside Parliament, they also set on fire a section of the Kenya’s historical building.
Others went to cause massive destruction in the National Assembly building.
Before the unprecedented move, several bodies were recorded lying in a pool of blood with some protesters claiming that they had been shot.
They made their way inside the Parliament as MPs continued with their debate on the contentious Finance Bill 2024.
