The Kisumu county government on Wednesday demolished containers that were illegally erected in the town following public uproar. Acting city manager Abala Wanga said the containers were installed without public participation. The public became agitated after containers were installed at the famous Akamba area on the city’s backstreet on Tuesday night. We are shocked that somebody is allowed to erect containers after traders have been driven out of the place,” trader John Owour said. Wanga also demolished structures next to Telkom Plaza, which left traders incurring losses during the demolition.
