Matatu operators in Nakuru on Monday clashed with police officers who wanted to forcefully return to the CBD decrying deplorable conditions in the three termini where they were redistributed. They were met by armed contingents of police officers who lobbed tear gas canisters and shot in the air to disperse them. Uncowed, the matatu operators pelted the officers with stones bringing business at the town to a standstill. The protestors lit bonfires and barricaded roads to protest the continued lockout of the CBD. This is the third time the operators are holding demonstrations to protest the move to lock them out of the CBD.
