The infamous bus stage has a hierarchy of power through which tasks are executed by those working there.
The chain of command runs from the lowest ranks — made up of proxies — to high-ranking individuals, only referred to as wadosi (bosses).
Under them, are managers who report to them, not in words like Cabinet secretaries report to the President, but in cash.
Machakos Country Bus station is a stage just like any other in Nairobi only more famous, right?
Wrong. Unknown to many, this bus terminus has sort of a semi-autonomous government complete with hierarchies and laws. Failure to follow the laws, just like with a government, will land you in trouble.
