The chairman of Bodaboda operators in Mt Kenya region John Nderitu yesterday paid a courtesy call to the National Police Service (NPS) spokesman where they discussed various issues affecting the industry.
While identifying the important role the Boda boda sector plays in easing business and movement of people and goods, the Spokesperson Bruno Shioso encouraged them to partner with the police in fighting crime through the existing community policing programmes.
He further thanked them for appearing in large numbers in the ongoing countrywide registration and urged them to take advantage of the waiver and the numerous trainings conducted in partnership with the National Youth Service (NYS) to empower their members on road safety rules and requirements.
Nderitu who is also the Country Treasurer Boda Boda Safety Association of Kenya (BAK) made the visit in his capacity as the Boda boda regional chairman where he briefed the spokesperson on areas of partnership and their efforts in mitigating challenges.
He thanked the National Police Service through the Central Regional Police and Administrative teams for a series of joint workshops and trainings that have empowered their members who have largely embraced the ongoing registration process and compliance to traffic requirements.
The Chairman disclosed that the association has acquired a two acre plot in Chaka, Kieni Sub-County where they intend to construct the Regional Boda boda offices.
This is in addition to an existing petrol station and plots owned by the association.
