City manager Abala Wanga said the city management is unyielding in its efforts to give the district a facelift and transform Kisumu through urban aesthetics. It is alarming this process is threatened by ongoing political rallies in the CBD and nearby areas, he said. "In the event of non compliance, the city of Kisumu shall itself apprehend the violators and will also institute legal actions," Abala said. City planner Judy Bala said matatus and buses will be directed away from the CBD to the Uhuru Business Park complex. The city planner said the long-term plan is to construct bus parks at outside the city, such as the one in Nyamasaria area.
