It's business as usual in Kisii after planned Saba Saba protests failed to take off on Sunday, July 7, 2024.

Police in Kisii intensified security patrols across the county ahead of the anticipated Saba Saba protests on Sunday.

Lorry loads of officers in riot gear were spotted patrolling Kisii town by 3pm in the afternoon.

But even then, no protester had turned up as heavy clouds covered the sky signaling rainfall. 

Traders said failure by the protesters to turn up gave them room to do business albeit cautiously.

A dealer told journalists the looting of her shop was traumatising.

“Nobody wants to relive the events to that day. It may help little whether I talk or not,” she said.
