Wednesday, October
30, 2024 – Business almost came to a standstill at the busy Kamukunji
market after county askaris and police officers were roughed up by traders
while in the line of duty.
The law enforcement officers had gone to the market to
arrest traders operating without valid business permits.
The traders turned against the askaris and police officers,
accusing them of frequent harassment.
The traders rained kicks and blows on the enforcement
officers, prompting them to scamper to safety.
“Ruto Must Go” slogans rent the air during the chaotic
incident.
The incident occurs as Kenyans face challenging times, with
many expressing regret over their choice in the last election.
The current administration, led by President William Ruto, had set high expectations with promises to enhance livelihoods across the nation.
