Nairobi City County on Monday issued a notice to matatu owners and the business community regarding a waste management initiative by the county.
In a notice dated January 13 and signed by Geoffrey Mosiria, the County Chief Officer for Environment, Nairobi County directed matatu operators to vacate stages at night to facilitate cleaning.
The county also mandated all businesses, including matatu stages, to comply with provisions aimed at enhancing cleanliness as it embarks on cleaning the capital.
The Nairobi City County Government cautioned that many matatu stages remain occupied by vehicles during the night hindering cleaning activities to make room for cleaning.
