I hope you now believe me i wasnt at the previous mbuzi ;-)).... I might have grown taller if we wait for RTS and Pondi's mbuzis..... - if they come before 2017.... Those are the major issues,others we can handle - like purses disappearing and the squeezes etc. @leona sounds like just yesterday! Those stories were all too common............ and this dude says we go back to that........ hey,asha weee.... afadhali nikule panya..... Experience is what you get when you don't get what you want.

The policemen counted 86 heads + 2 touts and a driver as they stepped out of the 25 seater NKR matatu. Simply put,those rigs from GM are not safely designed to carry standing passengers. At Fiumicino,Heathrow and many other airports,you will find buses which are safely designed with the centres of gravity being so low that the chances of overturning are almost nil. Or reintroduce the ERF buses like the kind formerly operated by KBS. Some lunatics from two of our lunee bins tried in vain to overturn them on two occasions. Back to pines,tents and bla blah. One woman,noticing that her behind was being pined asked ' Hai mzee,kwani hiyo ni nini?' and the mzee went ' Si hiyo ni sehemu ya mwili kama ingine!'. The whole matatu burst into uncontrollable laughter. We tenda wema kisha wende zako. Usinipe macho ya kutarajia shukrani!!!
