Passengers travelling from Siaya to Kisumu were yesterday stranded as matatu operators went on strike protesting the new traffic rules. Matatus plying the Kisumu-Siaya road opted to park their vehicles along the roads and some at the nearby petrol stations in support of the strike. However, boda boda operators did booming business hiking normal fares by 100 per cent. From Siaya to Ugunja fares were increased to Sh400 from the normal Sh200.
