The National Youth Service recieved 10 DAF FA2100 -BOVA Benelux buses in 1980 as part of a development aid package for the NYS. Six of these buses were used in October 1986 to open the new NYS bus services in Nairobi. They were not built as city buses with their one hinged door and were returned to noraml NYS duties when sufficient new buses were available.
