A deal by a local investor and Kisumu County Government to put up container kiosks where traders were evicted a few weeks ago has ended up in disarray.

Using a bulldozer, the city authorities were forced to pull down 30 kiosks that had already been installed to quell traders who had taken to the streets in protest.
