By MAUREEN KAKAHMore by this AuthorA group of business people who offer transport services to individuals, corporate and organisations on Thursday moved to court seeking to have the directive to paint school buses yellow be declared illegal. Regional and county directors of education were also asked to ensure that all school buses are painted yellow as of March 31. Education Principal Secretary Belio Kipsang had also earlier directed school administrators to keep buses off the road if they do not comply. The directive came into force in January after it was imposed by the then Education Cabinet Secretary Dr Matiang’i. The law stipulates that other vehicles that regularly transport school children but are not school buses are exempted from the stringent rules but will only be required to adhere to traffic rules.
