Raila bashed for breaking road safety laws
Cord leader Raila Odinga on Monday got bashed by netizens for posting a picture of himself on a boda boda without a helmet.
The picture was taken after Mr Odinga held a meeting with boda boda operators in Kisumu at the weekend.
The Cord leader ditched his car for the motorcycle ride to urge road users to uphold safety during the festive season.
However although he was wearing a reflector jacket the former Prime Minister had no helmet.
According to safety regulations by the National Transport and Safety Authority (NTSA), riders and passengers on motor cycles must wear helmets and reflector jackets.
Passengers must also sit astride and use foot rests with exception to persons with disability. Offenders are liable to a fine not exceeding Sh20,000 or a jail term of not more than six months or both.
Below are some of the reactions.
