 Residents in this capital city of Kenya have been on lockdown as President Obama arrived Friday evening for a three-day visit, leaving many already chafing under tight security measures meant to reduce crime and minimize terrorist threats.

While his arrival was heavily anticipated because of his Kenyan roots, the streets were unusually quiet in this normally bustling, chaotic metropolis. No groups of young men were hanging on corners, pedestrians were absent, beggars moved elsewhere.

Because of security measures, vendors can't sell trinkets, families can't buy vegetables and residents can't withdraw cash from banks. The government has told non-essential businesses in Nairobi to close and residents to stay home until Obama leaves Sunday for Ethiopia.

Armed U.S. Secret Service agents and more than 10,000 Kenyan security officers, including snipers, were in place near the Jomo Kenyatta International Airport as Obama's plane touched down Friday evening.

Kenya President Uhuru Kenyatta and other senior government officials greeted Obama at the airport before he was whisked away in his armed motorcade toward the U.S. embassy. Obama spent the evening reuniting with his Kenyan family, including Mama Sarah Obama, his grandmother
