Four opposition Kenyan MPs have had their charges against them dismissed a day after opposition leader Raila Odinga agreed to call off rallies and seek discussions with President William Ruto.
Thousands of people rushed to the streets when the four were detained for unlawful assembly a fortnight ago.
Following his rejection of the results of the election from the previous year and his criticism of the government’s response to the cost-of-living crisis, Mr. Odinga had called for rallies twice a week.
Several altercations took place between police and young protesters.
The country’s stability has been challenged by the divide between Kenya’s rival lawmakers, therefore the possibility of dialogue has received widespread support.
