Leaders from the five counties under lockdown have appealed to President Uhuru Kenyatta to come up with ways to cushion those affected by the Covid-19 containment measures.

The MPs allied to Deputy President William Ruto condemned the state of the economy and loss of livelihoods by people in the one-zoned counties of Nairobi, Machakos, Kajiado, Kiambu and Nakuru.
