NAIROBI, Jan 11 (Reuters) - Kenyan opposition leaders will march to a Nairobi police station later on Friday to notify authorities of nationwide protests they plan to start on Wednesday, a party source said.

"We are going to go through a very dark period in this country's history," the Orange Democratic Movement (ODM) source said. (Reporting by Andrew Cawthorne, Editing by Alistair Thomson)
