Founded by the late Ong’era Moturi and now managed by his family, the company has evolved into a formidable presence, connecting Nairobi to the Western parts of the country with efficiency and reliability.

Taking over from his father, Nahashon Ong’era Omote, he not only expanded the family business but also seized every opportunity to create wealth and employment opportunities.
His entrepreneurial spirit led to the establishment of Guardian Coach Ltd and Nyamira Express, further solidifying the family’s influence in the matatu business.

The motto “The best ahead of the rest” reflects Ong’era’s commitment to excellence, a principle that has guided the success of Nyamira Express, Guardian Hotel, and Guardian Coach.
