Uber, Easy Taxi, Pewin, and now Maramoja

We are spoilt for choice! Hope they all stay healthy and compete so we can have even lower fares...In the end though it is the company with best labor practices (Uber's achilles heel majuu) whether required by Gova or not, that is going to win.

Drivers are not happy, now on go slow.

Uber needs to embrace Kenyans' peculiarities. Undercutting the competition is less important than servicing their clientele well. In any case they cannot undercut motorbikes and matatus.

I see no problem in undercutting completion. One has to fight with the only weapon they have.

If the Uber drivers as they call themselves are not happy let them join the competition. I don't understand Kenyan mentality strike, riot, burn schools what nonsense.

The real game changer will be Uber introducing UberPool in Kenya or Litte creating a car sharing module.

The number of people who can share cars to and from work daily is quite huge.
