The Chief Security Officer Major Rtd Benjamin Kiplagat, has strongly warned matatus overcharging students. He said this in a joint meeting convened on Monday after comrades complained about the fare issue.
It is said that sometime last week some matatu touts were charging sh. 100. Tables overturned after MUSO’s Sec Gen Rashid Omar, boarded a matatu on Saturday which is said to have overcharged the passengers. Pleads by the passengers to be refunded the extra sh. 20 shillings bore no fruit and this prompted Mr. Rashid Omar to phone the commanding officer, Kesses Police Station after which they were refunded the extra amount charged.
This attracted the attention of the Chief Security Officer and some Senior Administrators who immediately intervened to solve the misunderstanding.
For now any matatu charging more than the normal fare should be reported to the Chief Security Officers office for action. Students have also been advised to restrain from boarding matatus in excess.
The meeting was convened by the Chief Security Officer and Mr. Rashid Omar.
