The Nakuru County Members of the County Assembly are interfering with the matatu operators' operations, the matatu operators claim.


Due to the protests, many individuals were unable to travel this morning because the matatus are not currently running.


According to the reports we have received, the situation that has been escalating for the past few hours remains unaddressed by the police, leaving the scene devoid of any calming presence.

The county and Matatu operators have yet to determine the course of action or provide a clear resolution for the ongoing situation, leaving the outcome uncertain and without a definitive timeline.


Matatu operators in the country have protested in the past, but it has always been solved, and the business continued as normal as per the reports that we have with us.




The economy of the country relies heavily on the smooth operation of the Matatu industry in the country, which has been worth billions for a long time now.
