Can he pull out a Michuki? Somehow those guys would sit and listen any time Michuki talked. We need such a tough manager to get out this. About Sonko, remember he has a direct interest in the same. He owns a great chunk of those vehicles.

@Innovate.....Perhaps wewe ndio unafaa kutoa goggles, like i said Sonko probably had something to do with the strike.

"An angry Kidero said the protest was politically instigated and asked why the protestors chanted political slogans against him. Nairobi senator Mike Sonko told the protestors that he supported their strike. “The governor should not simply impose bye laws but consult Nairobi leaders including me and the Women representative. Please go back to work and continue to pay the old rates and not the new rates,” Sonko told the protestors. The protestors then left with Sonko and his bodyguards."

Next elections it is Sonko vs Kidero vs Tim Wanyonyi vs Kevin Malinga.

RVR had an opportunity to shine and I think they did well. There is need for reliable rail commute to all major settlements and nobody would need these matatus anymore. If I were Kidero, I would have doubled the fee for the 18 seaters and maintained for the bigger ones as was or just slightly raise it.

PROVEN: A matatu strike CANNOT last more than six hours!

REASON: Everyone lives hand-to-mouth... drivers, conductors cannot survive without their daily salaries, stage manambas [managers?] cannot survive without their daily fees, vehicles owners cannot pay off loans without daily income, the cops cannot survive without daily bribes..... so, it is in everybody's interest that the vehicles get back to work!!!
Nothing is real unless it can be named; nothing has value unless it can be sold; money is worthless unless you spend it.

This courts Jameni. When everything seemed to start working one Odunga takes us back to the menace.

Someone should go back to court and use the ruling as a precedent to kick out the Alco-Brrow!.
