In Kenya, matatu or matatus (known as mathree in Sheng)[citation needed] are privately owned minibuses used as share taxis. Often decorated, many matatu feature portraits of famous people or slogans and sayings. Likewise, the music they play is also aimed at quickly attracting riders.[3] Over 70% of commuter trips are taken using matatu in cities like Nairobi. #moneyfest #matrix

Although their origins can be traced back to the 1960s, matatu saw growth in Kenya in the 1980s and 1990s, The matatu culture sprung up under the influence of widespread hip-hop music and culture by black Americans in the 1980s. By the early 2000s, the archetypal form was a (gaily decorated) Japanese microvan. larger, bus-sized vehicles also started to be used as matatu. The name may also be used in parts of Nigeria. In Kenya, this industry is regulated, and such minibuses must, by law, be fitted with seatbelts and speed governors.Present regulation may not be sufficient deterrent to prevent small infractions[10] as even decoration may be prohibited.Kenya has one of the "most extensive regulatory controls to market entry", and a matatu worker can be pulled from the streets simply for sporting too loud a shirt. ​⁠‪@MatwanaMatatuCulture‬ ​⁠‪@_matatunganya‬ ​⁠‪@matatuculture‬ ​⁠‪@NairobiCity_1‬
