In downtown Nairobi, protestors are battling with police and condemning the death of Albert Ojwang, a 31-year-old teacher and blogger who died more than a week ago in police custody. Kenyan authorities said he took his own life. But an independent autopsy says Ojwang died after being assaulted. Journalist Odanga Madung tells The World's Host Carolyn Beeler the demonstrations are part of a larger struggle to hold Kenyan authorities to account for injustice.
