The National Transport and Safety Authority (NTSA), alongside the National Police Service (NPS), has begun piloting unique identification numbers for boda boda riders nationwide, starting in Nairobi. The move seeks to regulate a sector criticized for flouting traffic laws. Boniface Otieno, NPS traffic liaison in Nairobi, explained that the program will assign riders numbers distinct from their vehicle plates.
