Sections of roads within Nairobi's Central Business District (CBD) were rendered impassable after matatu operators blocked key routes in an apparent protest.

This marked the second wave of protests in less than two weeks, with operators parking their vehicles in the middle of Moi Avenue to demonstrate against their eviction from designated parking spots and stages within the CBD.

Images and videos seen by Kenyans.co.ke show several buses stalled along Moi Avenue near Kencom, obstructing traffic and forcing other motorists to seek alternative routes.

Despite belonging to different SACCOs, the matatu operators appeared united in their demonstration, arguing that they had no alternative parking spaces for their vehicles.
