Kenya’s opposition leader Raila Odinga is visiting hospitals to check up on people who were injured by the police during recent protests.

Later he will be holding a vigil for those killed in the anti-government demonstrations held to protest about rising cost of living.

According to human rights groups, at least 30 people have died in the capital, Nairobi, and other towns across the country.

They have criticised the police for their excessive use of force, but the interior ministry has defended officers’ actions.

Mr Odinga suspended this week’s planned protest because of the deaths and will be lighting candles and laying flowers at a memorial site for them.

He first called a series of rallies in March.
