Thousands of motorists and passengers were stuck in traffic for hours after police blocked major roads in Kenya's capital, Nairobi, to enforce a Covid curfew to battle infections.
Videos and pictures posted on social media showed ambulances struggling to manoeuvre through the snarl-up.
Many people have criticized the authorities for imposing the measure.
Last month President UHURU KENYATTA introduced a curfew to deal with a third Covid-19 wave.
He also ordered the closure of bars, schools and restriction of movement in five counties including Nairobi.
