Huduma Kenya inasema leseni smart ya kuendesha inachukua wiki 4 hadi 8

Huduma Kenya imefafanua kuwa uchukuzi wa leseni smart ya kuendesha gari unachukua wiki 4 hadi 8, na gharama KSh3,050. Hii inafuata swali la umma na inapingana na taarifa ya awali ya NTSA ya siku 5. Madereva wanalalamika kwa kuchelewa tangu Januari 2026.

Huduma Kenya imetoa ufafanuzi kuhusu muda wa kuchakata leseni smart ya kuendesha gari, ikisema unachukua kati ya wiki nne na nane. Hii ilikuja baada ya swali la mtumiaji mkondonline: 'Badilisha leseni ya kuendesha gari ya zamani kuwa digital, ni gharama ngapi na itachukua muda gani?'. Huduma Kenya ilijibu: 'Hello, Ksh3,050, na inachukua wiki 4 hadi 8.' Gharama hiyo inalingana na Sheria ya Trafiki, lakini muda umesababisha mjadala kwani NTSA iliwahi kusema uchakuzi huchukua takriban siku tano, bila kuepuka wiki tatu. Tofauti hii imezua maswali kuhusu ucheleweshaji unaowezekana kutokana na idadi ya maombi, matatizo ya mfumo au changamoto za usambazaji. Waombaji wanahitajika kuomba kupitia lango la NTSA, kulipa na wakati mwingine kutembelea vituo vya kuchukua data ya kibayometriki. Shikayo za madereva zimeongezeka tangu Januari 2026, wakiomba ufafanuzi na kuangalia lango la NTSA bila majibu wazi. Serikali imetoa huduma za kidijitali ili kuboresha ufanisi, lakini tofauti kama hizi zinaweza kudhoofisha imani ya umma.
