Friday saw a surprising visit by former president Uhuru Kenyatta at the SKM Command Center in Karen, Nairobi, where he joined Azimio la Umoja One Kenya leaders for a requiem liturgy held in memory of victims of police violence.

Kenyatta drove his own Mercedes G-Wagon vehicle to the SKM Center.

Several politicians, including Raila Odinga of the Azimio party, Kalonzo Musyoka of the Wiper party, Opiyo Wandayi of the minority party, and Eugene Wamalwa, welcomed the former president.

Kenyatta joined his colleagues in placing flowers by the deceased's grave in their memory.      

Following the interfaith prayers, the leaders gave to support the victims and their families, with Kenyatta and Odinga each giving Ksh. 1 million.
