KENYA: Acquiring trading sheds and stalls in Nakuru town is not for the fainthearted. Powerful and treacherous cartels — with political links - have taken control of the lockable kiosks and stalls within the Central Business District — fleecing innocent traders.
The cartel run by individuals linked to outlawed gangs sells space acquired for free at between Sh70,000 and Sh400,000 at the Sh46 million market which is yet to be completed.
