African Leaders In Kenya for Ex-President's Funeral
A state funeral service is being held on Friday for former Kenyan President Mwai Kibaki who died a week ago at the age of 90.
Several African presidents and other global dignitaries will be attending.
The event is being held at the Nyayo National Stadium in the capital Nairobi.
Major roads in the city have been closed to facilitate movement to the venue.
Kenyans have been queuing to pay their last respects to the late president for the past several days, viewing his body at parliament where it lay in state.
The country has set aside Friday as a public holiday to allow Kenyans to mourn and attend the service.
The former president will be buried on Saturday at his home in central Kenya
