The Chronicles of a Fresha always brings you the reality of life in the most interesting way you will ever find.
In Kenya, especially Nairobi, Matatus or the P.S.V's are the main mode of transport for most of the residents just like me. However, some disturbing manners elicited by ladies in these vehicles are too huge to swallow leave alone to stomach. As a result, i will vomit them one by one....
#1. Fare...
What is the need of looking for your handbag all over the place to remove your transport fee when the conductor approaches and it is half-way the journey. From when you board this matatu, one thing is for sure that you shall pay for the services offered. I am disturbed when am seated to a lady and she has to shrug her Tuskys, Nakumatt, Kassmat paper bags, Keringet bottles, umbrella and even Galitos polythene bags looking for her handbag to extract her fare.

#2. Travelling with your extended family kids and you cannot handle them..
"Uncle/Auntie nishikie huyu please" is a very famous phrase where they ask you to help them carry these children. A person boards matatu with 13 kids and is only willing to pay for three seats meaning the neighboring passenger will have to help in migrating your family. BUY YOUR OWN CAR or travel alone
#3. Being always moody...
Nairobi ladies are always on headphones and scribbling their mobile phones even when they are out of power. They use the screen as a mirror just to make sure they avoid any contact with the person seated next to them. They also fold their lips in a manner likely to suggest they have kissed a thousand frogs and you are definitely NOT the prince charming..
#4. chewing...
#self-explanatory please you chew like cows' cud. please, gerrrr out here,,,chew ugali instead!
#5. Seating like you are...
ladies, kindly note that men should occupy the largest part of the available double seats in a matatu. This is because men seat while spreading their legs and most of them are taller than the available space between two adjacent seats.
#6. Coins and Notes...
A Nairobian lady can never give the tout coins of seventy shillings in tens denomination but pull out a note of thousand shillings to impress the other passengers, sorry, STRANGERS. Girl, you only live for yourself, give the poor conductor a simpler time by issuing the coins you have. you give notes in matatus and coins in churches....#ndingihota like Ciru Muriuki...
