A parent of pupils at St. Catherine's primary school stand behind a Kenyan national flag as she and others march toward the office of the Ministry of Lands, Housing and Urban Development to protest against alleged land grabbing of the school's playground in Nairobi, Kenya, January 28, 2015. The protesters and activists accused the private development company of grabbing the school's land. “The rightful owner (of the land) is St Catherine's school. I will instruct my officers to enjoin the Ministry in the matter to ensure that the school secures its land”, the Lands Cabinet Secretary Charity Ngilu said after meeting with parents of pupils who are predominantly from the poor slum in the area. The demonstration came nine days after another protest against land grabbing at Langata Road primary school in Nairobi in which the police is being condemned and investigated for tear gassing pupils who participated in a protest.
