Francis Ogato Nyakundi, the driver of the public service vehicle that was torched by rogue youth during the Azimio protests along Ngong Road, claims that the police watched while the rogue youth who pretended to be protesters attacked him and torched his bus. Francis claims that he pleaded with the several anti-riot police at the scene to intervene but the police ignored him.
He further stated that the police did not even call the fire brigade to put out the fire. He claims that the damage would have been minimal if the police acted accordingly.
The Matatu Owners Association CEO, Mr. Simon Kimutai stated that the Association will work towards protecting their business in future protests.
