Commuters who transit through the Kenya National Archives termini are on Monday evening pensively watching the clock as darkness rolls in with the night curfew of 8 pm to 4 am.
A spot-check by The Standard has revealed that queues snake the landmark, a popular meeting point located on Moi Avenue, opposite Hilton Hotel, as hundreds race to beat the night curfew.

The mad rush is a reaction to Saturday's snarl-up where motorists and essential service providers were stuck on several roads, including the Thika superhighway, for hours after police officers mounted roadblocks on major roads to enforce the curfew.
