American online taxi hailing firm Uber has guaranteed its drivers a minimum peak-time and off-peak pay to shield them from any loss of income arising from a passenger fare price cut that took effect in Nairobi on Thursday.

Uber drivers will earn an indemnity of between Sh500 and Sh450 for every peak and off-peak hour respectively that they fail to get ride requests when their Uber gadgets are online.
