Raila is known as an enigmatic figure, a man who has been at the centre of Kenyan politics for a lifetime, a fighter who has also wielded immense power, an outsider who became the ultimate insider, and a leader whose final chapter in an epic political saga came to a close on October 15, 2025, when he passed away in India.

The Nairobi government said it will enforce the PSVs ban with the help of police and the National Transport and Safety Authority.
