The government has banned the importation of second-hand buses and trucks into the country, in a move that could be disruptive for dealers in used vehicles but is a boon for the local auto assembly industry.
The Kenya Bureau of Standards (Kebs) said it would not allow the importation of buses and trucks into the country beginning July 1 this year.
