On December 24, 2019, a planned strike by matatu operators in Kenya was called off, preventing a potential disruption to public transportation.
The strike, which was set to begin on the same day, was intended to protest against the government's decision to increase taxes on the industry.
However, the operators decided to call off the strike after negotiations with the government, which resulted in a compromise on the tax increase.
