Beatrice Ogola, MP, regarding the death of boda boda riders and their passengers by sugarcane trailers of a local sugar miller, Sukari Industry in Ndhiwa Constituency. At the sitting of the Senate held on Tuesday, 15th November, 2022, Sen. Beatrice Ogola, MP, requested for a Statement from the Standing Committee on Roads, Transportation and Housing regarding deaths of boda boda riders and their passengers by sugarcane trailers of a local sugar miller (Sukari Industry) in Ndhiwa Constituency. In the Statement, the Committee was requested to- (1) Explain why cane trailers belonging to a local miller in Ndhiwa; Sukari Industry, transport sugarcane at night when visibility is poor leading to frequent cases of accidents specifically involving boda boda, their passengers and other pedestrians. Noting that local access roads are very narrow and the trailer-loads of cane are abnormally big. (2) State whether recent cases of accidents involving cane trailers of the said company, boda boda riders and other road users where approximately 20 people have lost their lives and dozens injured have been investigated and culprits brought to book. (3) Cause the sugar miller to clear cane trailer breakdowns along the local roads promptly noting inordinate delays in clearing broken down cane trailers from the roads"
