LIVE UPDATES: Transport strike grounds PSVs across Kenya as fuel price protests begin

Transport has been grounded in most parts of the country as matatu and other public service vehicle (PSV) operators begin a nationwide strike to protest the latest fuel price hike. The government has attributed the increase to global factors including the war in Iran, but opposition leaders have questioned why pump prices in neighbouring countries such as Uganda remain comparatively lower despite the fuel transiting through Kenya. Citizen Digital will provide live updates on developments across the country, including the situation on major roads, the impact on schools and businesses, and the response from government and transport operators.
