Good News! Now Travel In Tuk Tuk As Much As You Want


Mombasa governor Hassan Joho’s effort to ban the registration of tuk-tuk has suffered a major blow after a High court revoked the ban. Judge Dora Chepkwony ordered that the registration of the three-wheeler vehicles proceed until the determination of the petition.

After the ban by the governor through a letter to the transport department, tuk-tuk owners through the commission for human rights and justice moved to court seeking to stop the ban from being affected. In their application under the certificate of urgency, they had said they were set to suffer losses if the ban is effected without further interrogation.

Chepkwony also ordered both parties to file and serve the main petition within 21 days. Joho’s ban happened due to the ever-increasing number of tuk-tuk within Mombasa. Currently,8,000 tuk-tuks have been registered.
