Minister for Kampala Beti Kamya has expressed satisfaction with government for the arrest of members of the Boda Boda 2010 group. According to Kamya, the group has been a long-running problem in Kampala.
“In 2013, KCCA was trying to organize the boda-boda industry but the exercise was frustrated by boda-boda 2010. KCCA tried to establish stages for boda-bodas but it was frustrated mainly by boda-boda 2010 and their leader was at the forefront of it all,” Beti Kamya explained.
“We’re really happy that this has gone down, we can now organize the boda-boda industry. These warlords are in every part of the city until the law gets them. These warlords use all sorts of tools to get away with their crimes” Minister stated.
However, the minister revealed that Boda-boda 2010 is a registered organization but their underground activities have caused chaos. She further promised that as KCCA, they are going to streamline the boda boda industry as soon as possible.
