The National Transport and Safety Authority (NTSA) has taken decisive action, suspending the operating license of Super Metro Limited. This suspension comes in the wake of a tragic incident where a passenger was ejected from a moving Super Metro vehicle, leading to his death.
According to reports, the passenger was thrown from the vehicle after a dispute over an 80 Kenyan Shilling (Ksh) fare. The man had allegedly paid 50 Ksh, believing it to be the correct fare, as he was used to. This disagreement escalated, resulting in the man being forcibly removed from the bus while it was in motion. Tragically, he sustained fatal injuries and has since been laid to rest.
The NTSA’s suspension of Super Metro’s license underscores the severity of this incident and the authority's commitment to enforcing transportation regulations. The suspension will remain in effect until Super Metro demonstrates full compliance with all relevant regulations. This includes ensuring passenger safety, fair fare practices, and adherence to proper conduct by their staff.
This incident has sparked widespread outrage and calls for stricter oversight of public transportation in Kenya. Many are questioning the circumstances surrounding the man's ejection and demanding accountability from Super Metro.
The NTSA's action sends a clear message that passenger safety is paramount and that violations of transportation regulations will not be tolerated. This case serves as a stark reminder of the potential consequences of reckless behavior within the public transport sector.
