“Our attention has been drawn to a distasteful video circulating on social media of Boda boda riders attacking a motorist after an alleged road traffic accident,” NPS said.

The lady was grabbed from the car and stripped off her clothes by a rowdy group of boda boda riders.

There have been many complaints about the conduct of boda boda riders across the country.

A section of the public has called for the banning of boda boda over gross misconduct and involvement in criminal activities.
