The government has moved to restore order and sanity in the chaotic and yet important public transport sector from today. But even as the government vows brutal action on the cartels and those who don’t obey traffic rules, some matatu operators are threatening to boycott,a move that is aimed at blackmailing the government to rescind the notice. It is important that the sector provides Kenyans with adequate, effective, efficient and safe transport services. The mad rush by matatu crews is to meet targets and make something on the side for themselves. The rules must be enforced with such vigour as to change the culture of public transport.
