Uber drivers have threatened to leave the taxi-hailing service and join rival e-taxi firms if the management does not restore the old rates.
The drivers took to the streets of Nairobi on Tuesday to protest the low prices.
"Gava and Uber wanakula nyama tukimeza mate," which is Kiswahili for "the government and Uber are eating meat while we salivate," read the placard one of them waved.
"Uber is a software company, not a transport company," another read as quoted by the star.
Others carried signs saying Kenatco, national carrier Kenya Airways and supermarkets chain Uchumi were all 'dying', and that taxi companies would soon follow.
This is not the first time Uber is facing a revolt from drivers following fare cuts.
In August, About 3,000 drivers stayed off work to protest a new 35 per cent rate cut in fares announced by the US firm.
Under a new lobby group Kenya Taxi Digital Association, the Uber-allied drivers said the cheaper fares have more than halved their daily earnings raising fears of inability to pay their car loans.
Uber reduced the charges per kilometer from Sh60 to Sh35, while the rate per minute is down 25 per cent to Sh3 from Sh4.
