"content": "I urge the President that while implementing these measures, we also come up with ways of cushioning Kenyans so that they do not get doubly affected. Already since March last year, we have been going through this pandemic. At least, business was recovering when the economy was opened up and now we are going back to the same lockdown. Restaurants have been closed, working hours have been reduced, transport businesses have already been affected because of this lockdown. Let it not end at the lockdown because this thing will not sort itself out. Let us also take care of how the Kenyans will be affected especially in these five counties by reinstituting again the cushioning measures which were there in the first wave so that we do not lose livelihoods while trying to save lives. At the end of the day, we have to be sensitive to the lives of Kenyans."
