Workers at Langata Cemetery, one of the largest burial sites in Nairobi, are protesting over delayed salaries.
Consequently, the cemetery attendants locked the gates and ordered mourners to go back with the bodies of their loved ones until when the Nairobi County Government will clear their dues.
The workers are also demanding that the government improve working conditions at the cemetery.
They stated that they do not have the proper tools and equipment to do their jobs safely, and that the working environment is unhealthy.
Langata Cemetery, established in 1958, serves as the resting place for over 100,000 Kenyans.
