Posted on 11:43 by

Monday, it’s pretty hard to board a bus in Nairobi if you look Somali.
Twitter users report seeing Somalis kicked off buses, or buses emptying when Somalis get on.


(For my fellow Americans, alights means "gets
out.")

@bonifacemwangi tweeted :
Somalis are been refused entry to public
vehicles and their businesses
boycotted.Government of Kenya to
blame,they labeled them terrorists.

@CarolmNyaga tweeted:

evening where passengers forcefully threw
out a Somali lady
