Kenyan police deploy tear gas and stun grenades on protesters as cabinet ministers are sworn in
Kenyan President William Ruto is facing the biggest crisis of his two years in office.
Hundreds of protesters have gathered in the capital Nairobi, yet again, to call for his resignation.
Police fired tear gas at the crowds and made several arrests.
The unrest began in June with rallies against a controversial finance bill that would have raised taxes.
Ruto deployed the army and the crackdown killed at least 60 people.
Finally, in response to protesters’ demands, Ruto scrapped the bill and reshuffled his cabinet.
But many Kenyans are calling for justice for the activists killed — and an end to what they say is endemic government corruption.
The latest unrest came while the new cabinet was being sworn in.
