TRADERS at Kibuye market in Kisumu county yesterday protested over the construction of stalls at the open air market. Business was paralysed after the traders barricaded the Kisumu-Kakamega road. They destroyed the stalls, which are being put up by the county government, and burnt tyres on the road before police from Kondele station intervened. The traders' chairman Kevin Odhiambo said they no longer have space to sell their wares because most spaces were taken and given to others. He said the council did not notify them on the changes.
