Freedom for mombasa residents at last
Freedom is here. The Kenya kwanza slogan sounded like a usual campaign strategy, until president Ruto was sworn in. On his first speech as president of the Republic of Kenya, he ordered the return of Port operations from Nakuru to Mombasa. Former president Uhuru had moved the port operations from mombasa to a dry port in Nakuru.
This drastically affected the people of mombasa economically. Loss of jobs was evident in the coastal region, leading to increased crime ( the wakali wao syndicate) and idleness among the youth. This made a significant impact on the economy of mombasa. From shopkeepers closing shops early due to insecurity, to poor standards of living due to increased rate of unemployment in the region.
Increased drug and substance abuse was also evident. The order of the new commander in chief of the Kenya defence forces brought relief to the affected. The region seemed greener due to availability of jobs once again. Lesser youths idling chewing miraa was one of the key changes that were brought by the return of Port operations in Mombasa.
Thank you president Ruto.
