NAIROBI, Kenya, Oct 19 — The National Police Service (NPS) will intensify traffic enforcement nationwide and subject school transport vehicles to thorough inspections as schools close for the end-of-year holidays, amid warnings of increased road accident risks.
The police said more officers would be deployed on the roads to enforce traffic regulations as pupils and students travel across the country to reunite with their families.
In a statement issued on Monday, NPS spokesperson Muchiri Nyaga said the service would work with the National Transport and Safety Authority (NTSA) to strengthen enforcement and public sensitisation during the holiday travel period.
