Uber eyes other towns after 2016 Nairobi and Mombasa conquests

San-Francisco-based taxi hailing firm Uber has set its sights on other Kenyan towns after conquering Nairobi and Mombasa where it is now the most widely used taxi service.

Uber says it grew the number of Kenyan drivers four-fold this year, owing mostly to a 35 per cent price cut that came into effect in July.
