Kenyan police used teargas and water cannon to disperse protesters on Monday after demonstrations against an electoral body the opposition wants scrapped resumed in the afternoon.

Police fired teargas at a convoy of vehicles carrying opposition leaders and their supporters who accompanied it on foot.

A water cannon truck later chased the cars in the convoy out of the main town centre, a Reuters witness said.
