Super Metro woes

This comes days after Super Metro bowed down to NTSA’s demands and presented over 200 buses to NTSA’s inspection offices at Likoni Road in Nairobi, days after the authority suspended the popular matatu sacco’s operation license.

The troubles plaguing the company stemmed from an incident involving some of their crew members where a conductor threw out a passenger from a fast-moving Super Metro bus. The passenger died on the spot, and the crew fled the scene.

This led to fury and uproar from the public, who faulted the company for their lack of professionalism over the matter, prompting authorities to step in and take action.

Two Police officers on Friday night shot each other along Thika Road over what is suspected to be a love triangle.

According to a report by police, the incident happened at about 2130hrs on the night of Friday July 2, 2021 near Quiver Lounge opposite Garden city mall.

Police records show that constable Festus Musyoka Kavuthi, a DCI officer attached to Starehe Police Station, and constable Lawrence Muturi of Kasarani Police Station  engaged each other after Muturi bumped into Musyoka in the company of a woman identified as Felista Nzisa.

The Police OB report indicates that Musyoka was the first one to fire at his Kasarani counterpart before the latter shot him back in the neck  and accidentally hit Nzisa in the abdomen.

The woman and Musyoka are said to have been rushed to Nehema Uhai Hospital for first aid services before the latter was later taken to Nairobi Hospital after his condition turned critical.

Muturi is said to have sought medical attention at Radiant Hospital where he was treated and discharged. Kasarani DCI officers have hence confiscated rifles belonging to the two officers pending ballistic analysis and conclusive investigations.
