21 matatu saccos in court to quash order on CBD ban

Twenty-one matatu saccos have gone to court seeking to quash a decision by the Nairobi County Government barring their vehicles for entering the CBD.

They argue that the decision was made without taking into consideration that the operators have valid transport licences that allow them to operate in the central business district. The county has issued picking and dropping permits to the matatu operators.

They said pushing them out of the CBD is inconsiderate as there was no study to first ascertain whether the designated points can accommodate all matatus.

“It is an avenue for chaos and anarchy as the rule will be survival for the fittest which is counterproductive in a civilised society,” reads the court documents.
