Matatu operators plying the Kisii-Nairobi and Kisii-Nakuru routes have started to feel the pinch of the lockdown announced by President Uhuru Kenyatta last week on Friday.
Transport companies such as Guardian which owns a fleet of buses and vans plying Kisii-Nairobi, Kisumu-Nairobi and Mombasa-Nairobi routes are counting losses due to the travel ban in five counties to curb the spread of coronavirus.
George Nyariki, the Gusii Matutu Owners Association chair said there are over 250 Nissan matatus that ply the Kisii-Nairobi routes on a daily basis.
Huge losses for matatus plying into and out of zoned areas

Interior Cabinet Secretary Fred Matiang’i has launched a fresh attack on the judiciary in the fight against crime.
The CS has at the same time issued a fresh warning to politicians whom he accused of fanning ethnic hatred.
He said the politicians were responsible for violence witnessed during by-elections in Matungu and Nakuru’s London wards.
He warned that the Government would not sit back and watch the politicians take the country to ‘dangerous’ levels.
“Unless we behave differently, we are taking our country to dangerous levels,” said Matiang’i.
