MC Jessy Puzzled by NMS Warning Notice

  • Churchill Show comedian Jasper Muthomi, popularly known as MC Jessy, has raised concern after receiving notices from the Nairobi Metropolitan Services (NMS). 

    The first notice was sent to Jessy’s mobile phone alerting him that his car had been spotted parked in the Nairobi CBD and was required to pay the required parking fees. 

    The comedian was given a 30-minute ultimatum to pay the money or risk severe action.

    After the lapse of 30 minutes, he received another alert claiming that he had been penalised for the offence. 

    “Dear motorist, Car Reg No. K** **** has not paid for parking and has been penalized Clamping Fees KES 2000.00. Pay KES 2200.00 to avoid Further Penalties,†the message read. 

    Jessy was puzzled at the developments, stating that he had not parked in Nairobi CBD nor was he within the city. 

    “How is this possible? I received a message that I am parked at Nairobi CBD While I was out of town? How is this possible? I was not in Nairobi! Who’s playing games with NMS Data?†he wondered. 

    The comedian suspected that there could have been a data breach/mix up at NMS which caused the erroneous alerts. 

    A spot by kenyagist.com found that other motorists have reported similar mix-ups. 

    Hours before, Judah Nzangi complained that he received a notice to pay a penalty of Ksh 2,000 for defaulting parking fees in Nairobi yet his car was in Machakos. 

    “Why haven’t they included a photo element to the reporting system? That way parking attendants can’t raise fake parking fines. My car was home and they claimed I was in an industrial area. I have proof,†Keith Ayodo. 

    One Ahmed wondered whether those affected were victims of duplicated number plates.
