Nairobi residents have been told to expect disruptions during US President Barack Obama’s visit later this month.
State House Spokesperson Monoah Esipisu said traffic flow will be interrupted in Nairobi, but maintained that normal operations will continue at the Jomo Kenyatta International Airport.
Obama is expected to land at Jomo Kenyatta International Airport aboard Air Force One and his entourage will later proceed to Gigiri through Mombasa Road and the city centre.
His motorcade is expected to include a bulletproof limo known as The Beast and a military ambulance.
“We will be releasing a traffic guide for the day. We know the US head of State will come with a huge motorcade which will inconvenience road users in the city, but we also want to ensure that other operations continue,” said Esipisu.
