Public service vehicles (matatus) have returned to the roads of Nairobi after a two-day strike that significantly disrupted transport and business activities across Kenya.

• The strike was a protest against soaring fuel prices, with drivers reporting increases of around 2,000 shillings per tank.
• Matatu operators, small-scale traders, and commuters bore the brunt of the economic fallout.
• The Kenyan government has initiated a seven-day window for talks with matatu associations to address rising fuel costs.
