Easter this year is bound to be a dull quiet affair without much in the way of celebration. The roads remain a lot quieter this weekend, with millions of people within the Nairobi metropolis locked up following Covid-19 travel restrictions.
Nairobi and neighbouring counties of Kiambu, Kajiado, Machakos, and Nakuru, are now considered a red zone, under a zonal lockdown with churches, schools, bars and eateries closed — limiting restaurants to take-away service only — as a deadly third wave of Covid-19 surged in the country.
