City Shuttle Bus set on fire along Jogoo Road

A bus belonging to City Shuttle was on Thursday August 7 morning set ablaze by angry boda boda operators along Jogoo Road in Nairobi.

This is after the City Shuttle bus allegedly knocked down a motorbike rider along the busy road.

The boda boda rider died on the spot, prompting his colleagues to set the bus on fire in retaliation.

Photos and videos seen by nairobileo.co.ke showed the City Shuttle bus in flames as several boda boda operators watched from a distance.

The incident caused a huge traffic snarl-up along Jogoo Road as the bus was set ablaze on the roadway, blocking other vehicles from passing.
