Anti-government protesters in Kenya have returned to the streets stepping up demands for President William Ruto to resign, despite his recent concessions.
One man has been shot dead during a confrontation between protesters and security forces on the outskirts of the capital, a BBC reporter on the ground says.
In central Nairobi, shops have been closed as police fired tear gas to disperse hundreds of demonstrators.
The protests began last month against an unpopular tax bill, which has since been withdrawn by the president.
Last week, President Ruto called for a “dialogue” as he fired his entire cabinet and the head of the police force resigned. End.
