George Ruto's prized matatu, Baba Yaga, is out of service after a collision that left it and a rival vehicle badly damaged.

Newly obtained footage, however, is raising uncomfortable questions about the events leading up to the crash.

George Ruto’s Baba Yaga matatu involved in yet another accident

The accident took place on the night of Friday, November 13, along Route 125, the Nairobi-Kiserian corridor that Baba Yaga operates under Ruto's 98 SACCO PSV line.

The John Wick-themed matatu, one of the more eye-catching vehicles in the fleet, reportedly ploughed into the rear of another well-known matatu on the route, Detroit.

A source familiar with the incident told TUKO.co.ke that the two vehicles had been competing on the road when the collision took place.

Images and footage captured at the scene told a stark story. Baba Yaga's front end bore the full force of the impact, with its bumper, grille and body panels caved in.

Debris and dislodged interior fittings lay scattered around the vehicle. Detroit did not escape unscathed either, with its rear section sustaining significant damage.
