Kenyans were on Wednesday involved in heated discussions following Nairobi Governor Mike Sonko's edict that declared Uhuru Park grounds closed to the public.
In a notice, the Nairobi County Administration announced that renovation activities were underway at the park hence the lockdown.
Under the topic "Uhuru Park", supporters of former Prime Minister Raila Odinga's swearing-in took to name-calling after what they alleged to be sabotage of NASA's big event that was scheduled to take place at the park on January 30.
Nairobi County's Jamhuri High School topped the trends on Wednesday as social media users shared their view on reports of discrimination based on religion at the school.
A total of 35 students sustained injuries, with five of them admitted in hospital, following an overnight fight that involved machetes and knives.
The students were stabbed following an alleged altercation between members of the Muslim faith and Christians.
Security officials, as well as parents, made a trip to the school to ascertain that indeed the boys had differed based on their religious beliefs.
The school's management would later send the 1,500 student home asking them to report back on January 29, 2018.
