Matatu Metropolis

Nairobi, August 2, 2019. Collins Birage (25) is a Makanga (conductor) of one of hundreds of Matatus which are every day lining up while waiting for passangers in front of the Nairobi Railways Bus Station, the largest bus station in Nairobi. The Matatus feed many people, including the conductors, the owners, but also police officers and city councils. And the national transport authorities also demand money for the routes. The Makangas earn as much as is left after deducting the payment of all these people.
