Chaos has erupted in Embu town after the boda boda riders clashed with the police after their leader was allegedly arrested.
The riders began their protest after one of their leaders, Kirimari SACCO Treasurer, was arrested last night, July 28, by officers from the Directorate of Criminal Investigation (DCI).
The exact reasons and charges for the arrest of the leader are unclear, with the government remaining silent on the matter.
Early Tuesday morning, July 29, the angry riders blocked the road with bonfires and stones in Embu town, taking over a large section near the court roundabout.
