Boda boda operators have announced nationwide demonstrations should Parliament fail to dismiss the controversial Public Transport (Motorcycle Regulations) Bill, sponsored by Kakamega Senator Boni Khalwale.
Addressing the press on Tuesday, March 4, in Nairobi, the Chairperson of the Boda Boda Association of Kenya (BAK), Kevin Mubadi, accused the Kakamega legislator of attempting to sabotage the boda boda sector.
Mubadi claimed that despite the sector's immense contributions to the economy, there were heinous plans to impose additional levies on the operators.
While expressing his frustrations over the Bill, Mubadi called on Khalwale to withdraw the proposed law immediately and provide written confirmation of its withdrawal.
