Small-scale traders at Keumbu Market are counting losses four days after a social media-driven boycott took hold, following a deadly attack on a political convoy along the Kisii-Keroka Highway. The Linda Mwananchi brigade, led by Nairobi senator Edwin Sifuna, was stoned on Friday, 3rd July 2026, leaving several injured and claiming the life of 36-year-old supporter Vincent Osiemo, who fell from a campaign vehicle during the chaos. With traders at Keumbu Market accused of involvement — a claim they deny — an online boycott has spread offline, with matatus reportedly skipping the market's usual stopovers. This video breaks down the timeline, the arrests made so far, the call for an independent IPOA probe, and what it all means for a community now fighting for its livelihood.
