Locally-Built bus body. But don't know on what chassis it based.

I think that this (along with the other buses) has been extracted from a real photo of the Nairobi bombing, because it has a yellow rear number plate (correct for Kenya) and is in Stagecoach livery.
Quote In November 1991 Stagecoach Holdings Limited (as it was named then), bought United Transport's shareholding in Kenya Bus Services Limited. During its tenure, Stagecoach rapidly expanded the fleet, introducing the Express Services and the modern double decker buses back on Kenyan roads. In October 1998 a consortium of investors led by Karanja Kabage as chairman acquired Kenya Bus Services Limited from Stagecoach Holdings which owned 95% of the business.

^I think you are correct.

Some users on Twitter shared pictures shared pictures on the 20th Anniversary. There are two Stagecoach buses here, the closer one with the highlight box has fleet number 477D:
https://twitter.com/KinyanBoy/status/1026723306819465216 - An image attached to this tweet shows the other bus, with a sliver of 477D in the background; according to the user, about 12 passengers on this Stagecoach bus died
https://twitter.com/MamboZuri1/status/1026746352766799872 - WARNING: graphic imagery - An image attached to this tweet shows a clear frontal view of 477D, with an 'LSHS' badge above the grille

LSHS is a bus builder in Kenya: https://www.lshs.co.ke/

LSHS wrote Established in 1950, Labh Singh Harnam Singh LTD (LSHS) is the largest and oldest bus, coach, truck and commercial body manufacturer in East and Central Africa.

^Bus 400, appears almost identical to 477D.
