Businesses within the Nairobi central business district (CBD) and across other towns took a hit on Thursday as youth-led protests against the Finance Bill 2024 escalated on a third consecutive day.
Several establishments, including banks, supermarkets, hotels, and retail outlets remained closed for the better part of the day as protesters engaged police in running battles in a show of defiance that kicked off at around 11.00 a.m. in the capital city.
