By NYAMBEGA GISESAMore by this AuthorThe Ongata Rongai matatu that was involved in a fatal accident last Sunday had been cleared by the Motor Vehicle Inspection Directorate in questionable circumstances only two days before the crash. Matatu operators on the Lang’ata/Rongai/Ngong routes have also claimed that NTSA officials demanded bribes. Investigations by the Sunday Nation have found that the NTSA had, on several occasions, raised compliance issues with the matatu sacco. In a letter, Ongata Line officials claim that they notified NTSA officials about the matatu that had an accident. When National Transport and Safety Authority conducted investigations, it found that the driver of the vehicle was under the influence of alcohol.
