CCTV Installation Cuts Motorcycle Theft in Narok Town, Riders Praise Security Partnership
Narok, Kenya – Motorcycle theft in Narok town has sharply declined following the installation of CCTV cameras and strengthened collaboration between boda boda operators, security agencies, and the Narok County Government. The joint effort has significantly improved security, restoring confidence among local riders.
Speaking to Kass Digital, Boda Boda Association chairman Lemayian Punyua described the initiative as a turning point in the fight against theft. He explained that riders, who previously faced daily losses, now feel safer with cameras monitoring key areas and enhanced police cooperation. Punyua urged riders to remain vigilant, particularly at night, and to properly secure their motorcycles to prevent further thefts.
Beyond theft prevention, Punyua highlighted the importance of financial responsibility among riders. He reminded operators with outstanding loans to honor repayment agreements, warning that non-compliance could lead to repossession. The success of this initiative reflects the positive impact of community-police partnerships and technology in enhancing urban security and protecting livelihoods in Narok County.
