What you need to know:

  • Kenyans eager to travel the were forced to return home disappointed.
  • Public transport companies still had a long way to go before resumption of services.
  • It had been expected that inter-county bus services would be operational by Tuesday.
  • A number of people had already booked tickets immediately after the President’s speech on Monday.

Kenyans will have to wait a little longer to travel despite the lifting of a cessation of movement order into and out of Nairobi and Mombasa due to a delay in the establishment of guidelines for transport operators.

While allowing movement into and out of Kenya’s two largest cities on Monday, President Uhuru Kenyatta ordered the Ministries of Transport and Health to issue guidelines on the resumption of travel.
