Sunday, February 25, 2024 - Nairobi County Governor, Johnson Sakaja, has ordered the removal of all outlets selling wines and spirits near bus termini
The County Chief gave the order on Friday during a meeting
that brought together stakeholders from the transport sector such as the Matatu
Owners Association (MOA) and officials from the National Transport and Safety
Authority (NTSA).
“We will no longer allow disorder in the city” warned
Governor Sakaja,
“Nairobi is the capital city. We are working round the clock
to ensure this. That is why today, I have directed the removal of all wines and
spirits shops located around matatu terminals,” he added
As a result of the unregulated opening of such joints in the
capital, most lives had been compromised, others to the point of death.
“Drivers and Touts are spending time in these wines and
spirits that have turned into bars and drinking dens as they wait for
customers. We have lost loved ones due to recklessness on our roads because of
alcohol and drug abuse.” charged the Governor
