It still remains unclear to many people whether the matatu strike planned for Monday 19th of December will take effect. There were claims by the industry players that they will not participate in the COTU called strike sitting the festive season as their business peak time. But from the way things are going, if you were planning to travel, you would better do that before 19th.
In a press conference that was aired live by NTV, on Sunday 18th December, COTU secretary general Francis Atwoli sort to clarify that the strike is not only for the Matatu industry players but for all “Kenyans of good will”. According to him, all Kenyans who care about the welfare of the economically lowly Kenyans should take part in the forth coming strike. He said that we are fighting for the “Hustlers wa mtaa” and even quoted the bible where it says that the kingdom of heaven at its goodies is for those that fight for the rights of the poor.
