Matatu operators in Kenya have extended their nationwide strike into a second day, paralyzing transportation services across the country due to disagreements over fuel prices.

• Hundreds of passengers were left stranded at bus stops and termini, particularly in areas like Witethie on Thika Road.
• The Transport Sector Alliance, representing matatu stakeholders, rejected a government proposal to reduce diesel prices by Sh10, demanding a more substantial cut.
• While there was consensus on addressing fuel adulteration, the core issue of diesel price adjustments remains unresolved, with another meeting scheduled.
