The bus , KBZ 820N was reportedly on its way to Mtito Andei when the incident occurred at around midnight.
Karuku Ngumo Kwale County Commissioner said the bus was on its way from Mombasa.
“No one was injured as it would appear that the bus had no passengers at the time,” he said.
The cause of the fire is yet to be established.
The incidence came weeks after a matatu burst into flames on Juja Road on Wednesday morning. Passengers were still inside the 14-seater vehicle during the 8.45am incident that occurred near Huruma Flats. Occupants in the Pinpoint Sacco matatu escaped unhurt. The vehicle was headed to Eastleigh from Kayole.
