Kenya’s fourth president H.E Uhuru Kenyatta pulled another surprise on Wednesday morning when he boarded a matatu to KICC for the official launch of My 1963. The CEO of Safaricom Bob Collymore had the honor of riding in the same Matatu with the president H.E Uhuru Kenyatta as he was heading for the official launch of the cashless system from statehouse.
From the motorcades and the multiple security guards who usually follow the President, today was a bit different from the norm. The President decided that he would rather ride in the matatu and experience how the system works.
My 1963 is a Safaricom initiated cashless system that will reduce physical cash transactions in matatu buses.
