Activist Boniface Mwangi has been known for his courage and unending effort to curb political rogues. Boniface on Monday morning was at it again, this time around, blocking a ‘VIP’ motorcade in a Nairobi highway. Feeling unmoved, Boniface was not intimidated by the bodyguard making a million moves with his Woki Toki.
In a video that he has shared on his twitter handle, the photojournalist-cum-activist is seen refusing to pave the way to an oncoming motorcade with sirens, forcing it to swerve. Mwangi says he refused to pave way for the motorcade because it was using the wrong lane.
I only give way to ambulances and fire engines. I block entitled civil servants and politicians who love to use sirens to avoid traffic. As a taxpayer, l expect the people in these big cars to follow the law and work towards solving the perennial traffic jams. @NPSOfficial_KE pic.twitter.com/HIJDKEVbB4

The former Starehe MP aspirant claimed that he would never give way to entitled civil servants who evade traffic by scaring Kenyan drivers with their sirens. He insisted that they should follow the law and work towards curbing the traffic situation that Kenyan have constatly compained about.
Below were a few reactions, of what people thought about Boniface’s move:
Good move…give them a dose of their own medicine…tufuate Sheria#Teamcourage

@NPSOfficial_KE need explain if the directive was a joke meant to make their new boss look good.

Do you think it was right for Bonface to block the motorcade?
