    Script: Mashujaa Day celebrations were overshadowed by an incident in Nairobi, where plainclothes police officers allegedly assaulted and arrested Royal Media Services journalist Francis Odee. Odee was part of a team of journalists covering protests against the high cost of fuel along Kimathi Street when individuals later identified as police officers reportedly descended on the peaceful and unarmed demonstrators. As Laura Otieno reports, the incident has sparked condemnation, with the officers' actions described as rogue and unlawful.
