18 December 2013

Fares in Nairobi are likely to go up following the high court's decision to throw out a case challenging the implementation of the county's finance bill. Under the bill, transport companies with more than 50 vehicles will now pay Sh100,000 for operating licenses up from Sh80,000 while single vehicle operators will pay Sh15,000 a year instead of Sh10,000. Here is Simon Kimutai from matatu owners association.
