The Kenya Railways Corporation (KRC), has for a second time, suspended commuter train services ahead of Azimio La Umoja protests on tomorrow.
“We wish to inform our customers that due to unavoidable circumstances, commuter train services scheduled for tomorrow, Thursday the 30th of March, have been suspended. All Madaraka Express link trains between the Nairobi Central Station and the Nairobi Terminus will, however, run as scheduled. We do sincerely apologize to all our esteemed customers for any inconvenience caused. By Management. 29th March 2023,” the KRC statement stated in full.
The planned protests are expected to be held in Eastlands part of Nairobi.
KRC is just acting to stem losses from low commuter numbers.
The opposition has once again blamed the government for planning violence.
