The weekly protests called by the opposition will cost truckers more than Sh300 million monthly on regional transport of goods, a move likely to hurt trade between Kenya and its landlocked neighbours.

Kenya Transporters Association (KTA) chief executive officer Mercy Ireri says during protests there will be zero movements of trucks as the owners withdraw them from the roads for fear of being vandalised by protesters.
