@C_NyaKundiH I fully support the police on this. Matatus were to protest peacefully by withdrawing their vehicles from the roads. But extortion, robberies, destruction of properties and mayhem can't be tolerated. Let the police deal with criminals be it ever so severely.

I never thought Kenyans would be threatened for parking their matatus because of fuel hikes. Police are overstepping their mandate.

@C_NyaKundiH So Kenyans are protesting against fuel prices by looting and robbing one another and burning down one another's cars? Then you're saying security forces should stay away?

This matatu strike is not a policing issue.... It is an economic issue. Kenyans are protesting fuel prices, cost of living and a government that has refused to listen. Security chiefs must stay out of this and stop being used as political shields for Kenya Kwanza’s economic failure. When police rush to threaten citizens before leaders even address the grievance, it raises a serious question.... is some of the violence and chaos we have seen today planned, allowed, encouraged or exploited so the regime can hide behind “security” instead of confronting the economic pain? Ruto and his government must face Kenyans directly. You cannot raise fuel prices, ignore the suffering, then send commanders to speak in the language of force. Security chiefs are not elected leaders. Let them maintain lawful order, not manage political anger on behalf of a failed regime.

@TuliNaisula @C_NyaKundiH @Kibet_bull @Maryian96 Si bure wazazi wako walikufa wote. Waliona wamezaa mavi wakaamua wadedi tu wasipakwe aibu

The Matatu Owners Association says the strike is not just for today, but will continue until fuel prices are reduced.

@BRuiki @DavisThuranira @C_NyaKundiH Cleaver.

@TuliNaisula @DavisThuranira @C_NyaKundiH stupid

Millennials are so weird. Many of them boarded traitor PSVs at 2 a.m just to avoid the dreadful thoughts of being fired even during a nationwide PSV strike. Their imaginary sense of job security comes before personal security. Meanwhile, Gen Z wote wametext boss hawaendi leo.

@citizentvkenya @C_NyaKundiH Wachome kabisa.

Kerugoya town chokes in smoke as Kirinyaga protesters light bonfires in the streets

@kenyatalkforum @C_NyaKundiH So, looting nowadays can lower fuel prices?

Looting has been reported in parts of Naivasha as protests over rising fuel prices continue to spread. Several businesses were reportedly targeted during the unrest, which has been linked to nationwide demonstrations by transport operators and members of the public opposing increased fuel costs. #RejectFuelPrices

@C_NyaKundiH President Ruto seems to have lost grip of the country. I'd he was, then the kind of mayhem experienced today wouldn't have happened. A country where people just wake up and do whatever they want. Matatu sector must be orderly and disciplined.

Gospel artiste Rachel Wandeto who sustained severe burn injuries after she was attacked in Mwiki area for getting a tattoo of President Ruto, dies.

@HEBabuOwino Why are you not on the streets protesting?

The continued increase in fuel prices is pushing the cost of living beyond the reach of ordinary Kenyans. Transport, food, and basic commodities are becoming more expensive every day. Leaders must put wananchi first and stop burdening citizens with policies that deepen economic hardship.

@C_NyaKundiH @ThikaTowntoday Do they own cars or matatus?

@Mr_Moshki @C_NyaKundiH Ruto is president till 2032.

Unachora tattoo ya mwizi unakufa kama mwizi, ni sad 😢

@Scarlettafc_7 @C_NyaKundiH Matatus have started coming back on the roads and by 6pm all will have resumed work. Fuel prices remain the same and Ruto is still president.

@C_NyaKundiH At least the whole of this week, one day only will not do anything, Kasongo thinks it's only a single day strike and tomorrow is business as usual, solidarity and sacrifices must be made.

@truthsword4950 @C_NyaKundiH @Kibet_bull @Maryian96 The government must reign on looters and criminals brutally.

@C_NyaKundiH Please create awareness that more than 10 people have been killed in Gachie by the police during the peaceful reject fuel prices demonstrations. The government is trying to cover up this and 527 chokoraa twitter have been sent to say it's lies @Kibet_bull @Maryian96

@C_NyaKundiH We shall see. Tonight they'll all be back on the roads with the same high fuel prices. Can't sustain a whole day strike.

@NyakundiReport @C_NyaKundiH It's now evident it was not about fuel cost.

Crowds fill Nakuru CBD as demonstrations over high fuel prices intensify following the death of a protester, with anti-government chants ringing across sections of the city.

@NyakundiReport @C_NyaKundiH It will not be long before those matatu gangs turn against him.

Matatu Owners Association of Kenya President Albert Karakacha says the sector has suffered losses of more than Ksh 500 million and is ready to continue incurring further losses until President William Ruto’s regime addresses high fuel prices.

@the_sambu @C_NyaKundiH I think looting, extortion and mayhem were not supposed to be part of Matatu strike. The government in this situation is justified to apply force, however brutal.

The government increases fuel prices. Kenyans react immediately and express dissatisfaction. The government turns deaf, and those supposed to help in finding solutions, like the CS Treasury, boast of how they cannot be advised to run the ministry. Kenyans react, and now the government reacts with its force!

@C_NyaKundiH So it's not about fuel prices?

Lies...This was during the #SiriNiNumbers protests

@ivymuthe @C_NyaKundiH So how does looting lower the cost of fuel?

Looters have stormed the Coca-Cola depot in Kitengela, located next to Equity Afia with the premises currently under siege.

@NyakundiReport @C_NyaKundiH By evening, normalcy will return and fuel prices will not have dropped.

Protests in Kakamega as the ongoing transport strike over rising fuel prices spreads across multiple towns and cities countrywide.
