The Motorists Association of Kenya has protested the government's move to introduce mandatory inspection of private vehicles, terming it evil and unjustified.
The Association, in a statement on Tuesday, June 24, argued that the mandatory inspection of private vehicles was exploitative and disregarded the economic agony already borne by vehicle owners.
It went ahead to criticise the current inspection regime for commercial vehicles, terming it a farce.
According to the Association, over 90 per cent of commercial vehicles received inspection stickers without undergoing actual inspection. "This proposal is not only unjustified but also stands as a testament to shameless greed and an unrestrained appetite to squeeze Kenyan motorists dry, without conscience or care for the economic agony already borne by vehicle owners," the motorists lamented.
