@bonifacemwangi Experiential Matatus then should find their own lane of business. The matatu you enter is a choice, most of the time. And the matatu art culture meets Kenyans in a special place. Wouldn't the solution be to license and charge them as tour operators.

@aquantuokenya You service isnt working. Been waiting for my shipment for a month now... nothing... What's going on?

[Kariuki Gathitu @gathitu]

@aquantuokenya Your service and customer service is not working. Seems you have decided 2025 is the year you kill this great business. How unfortunate.

[Kariuki Gathitu @gathitu]

Hey @dhh thanks for that very insightful and heart felt conversation with a fellow geek, speed junkie/racer, developer, father, entrepreneur and ruby-lang lover. From @ruby_african, @quikk_api and myself, you have our gratitude. #RubyconfAfrica2024
