The Kenya Motorists Association now wants top officials of the National Transport and Safety Authority to resign saying they have failed in their mandate.
According to kbctv.co.ke, the association’s chairman Peter Murima on Monday also wants the Ministry of Transport to take action against incompetent officials in the authority.
Murima, in a statement to newsrooms, accused the authority of laxity in cracking down on the operations of public service vehicles hence the rise in road accidents.
The chairman further decried the Sunday incident on Lang’ata Road in which four people died and several injured, after a matatu plying the Nairobi-Ongata Rongai route was involved in an accident.
Reports claim that the matatu was among PSVs that had been impounded by NTSA for flouting traffic regulations.
