https://nation.africa/ Learning was disrupted at Kimathi Secondary and Kimathi Primary schools in Manyani, Nakuru East, due to a protest over the disappearance of a local fisherman.
Residents say Brian Odhiambo, who disappeared recently after he was caught fishing illegally at Lake Nakuru, was last seen with Kenya Wildlife Service (KWS) officers.
On Thursday, police lobbed tear gas canisters at protesters near the school. Scores of students fainted and were rushed to a nearby hospital.
Protesters engaged anti-riot police in running battles for the better part of the day as they demanded Odhiambo's release.
