Bulsha:- The public transport company is looking into allegations that a passenger asking for directions was told by the driver to “take a bus to Somalia”.
The alleged incident happened yesterday morning on a bus stop at Msida, when according to a bus passenger, a man boarded the bus and asked the driver for directions.
According to the passenger who spoke to this newspaper, the man knocked on the door of the bus, which had left Valletta at around 11.20am.
But all the man allegedly received after asking for directions was “disgusting racism and hate”. The passenger told the Times of Malta that the driver’s reply was: “Take bus to Somalia, you worthless, speak Maltese.”
This was not the proper way to treat people, he noted, adding that the bus driver told the man to leave the bus immediately.
A spokeswoman for Malta Public Transport confirmed that the company had received a complaint through the social media site Facebook and it was investigating the allegations.
