Nairobi's hottest matatu: Viper strikes in Kitengela with ‘deadly’ features

When I first herd of the Kitengela-bound mathree known as Viper, I was curious to catch a ride on it.

I mean, why on earth would someone name a mathree after a snake?

The finishing of this nganya’s interior and exterior is an art form resembling a viper’s skin.

Another thing that caught my eye was that the 29-seater nganya has air-conditioning that is particularly welcome during this hot season.

“We are currently the most popular nganya on Mombasa Road, all the way to Kitengela,” Viper driver Simon Tiffo told Ma3 Culture.

His assistant Isma, added that, “We are also the first to install a 64-inch LED screen in a mat, playing the latest and hottest hip-hop videos and other great selection of music.”
