Nandi Senator Samson Cherargei now wants the National Transport and Safety Authority (NTSA) to withdraw its notice that directed Public Service Vehicle (PSV) operators to remove unauthorised artwork, including graffiti, from their vehicles.

Recently, NTSA threatened to suspend and revoke the licences of motorists who would fail to comply with the notice, further stating that it would also impound the non-compliant vehicles.

Cherargei, in a statement on Thursday, May 29, termed NTSA's directive as retrogressive and backwards.

He also termed it primitive and illegal as it undermines freedom of expression, thought, art and consciousness.
