Nairobi matatus plying the City centre, Kasarani and Santon route have been put on the spot for allegedly overcharging their passengers.

Among the matatus named by regular passengers include those that operate under MSL Sacco.

Passangers said the matatus increase the fares by over 100 per cent depending on the mood and time of day.

“These guys are just cons! They will come up with different fares depending on their mood. Sometimes, you can pay even Sh50, yet normal charges ought to be Sh20. It is wrong and unlawful,” said an angry James Kangethe, a passenger.
