The curfew has hindered businesses since it curtails movement,” said Mr Chemion, at the sidelines of the Legislative Summit in Mombasa. Ms Chebet said women and children have borne the brunt of the curfew that was imposed in the entire Cheptais Sub-county, which includes her ward and three others. Chemion and Chebet were accompanied by MCAs Hillary Kiptalam (Elgon), Frankline Simotwo (Chepyuk), Ben Kipkut (Chesikak) Joan Kirong ( Kapkateny), Eunice Kirui(nominated) and Cheprot Chesibok(nominated). On Wednesday, Mr Kapondi made an appeal to Mr Matiang’i to call of the curfew, insisting that it has achieved its objective. Now that we have the leaders of the criminal gangs safely behind bars, the curfew should be immediately lifted,” he said.
