A majority of shops and businesses remained closed yesterday in Nairobi and major towns in the country following protests and a nationwide public transport strike over fuel price hikes, triggering billions of shillings in losses.
Key roads in Nairobi remained largely empty, forcing some commuters to walk to work, with other parts of the country like Nakuru, Mombasa and Eldoret also affected by the transport crisis.
Businesses in parts of Nairobi remained shut, and schools asked students to stay at home, leading to revenue losses for enterprises and county governments.
