Africa-Press – Uganda. <\/strong><\/span>A student of Law Development Centre (LDC) has become the latest victim of boda boda accidents after a trailer on Thursday crashed her dead at Makerere, Kavule in Kampala.<\/p>\n

Police said Jalia Nakiboneka, a student of LDC Lira Campus was riding on the motorcycle as a passenger when the Mercedes Benz trailer crashed her at around 2:30pm.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt is a dark day at LDC! We regret to announce the death of our student, Nakiboneka Jalia of Lira Campus, which occurred today at 2:30 P.M in Makerere Kavule.

The rider of the motorcycle took off immediately after accident, according to police.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe body of the deceased was conveyed to city mortuary for postmortem. Inquiries into the cause of the accident are underway,\u201d said ASP Faridah Nampiima, the traffic and road safety directorate spokesperson.<\/p>\n

Minister\u2019s daughter dies under similar circumstances <\/b><\/p>\n

Nakiboneka\u2019s death comes barely a week after the State Minister for Lands, Mr Sam Mayanja\u2019s daughter Belinda Birungi, 23, was knocked by a trailer while riding on a boda boda on Stretcher road, Ntinda, Kampala, on October 28.<\/p>\n

Road accidents have become rampant in the country with police saying they register at least four deaths as a result of boda boda crashes every day.<\/p>\n

According to the 2021 Annual Crime and Traffic\/Road Safety report 4,159 road accident fatalities countrywide were recorded. Of these 1,390 involved motorcycle riders while 528 were passengers on motorcycles. This translates to about four people dying from boda boda accidents every day and about 116 every month.<\/p>\n

\u201cMotorcycles have become a menace on the road. When you register five accidents a day, four involve motorcycles,\u201d Ms Nampiima told this publication on Tuesday.<\/p>\n

She said in October, 257 people died from in accidents and these were mostly due to boda boda.<\/p>\n

\u201cFrom October 1 to 29, 1,378 accidents were registered on different roads across the country and of these, 227 accidents were fatal, 705 were serious, and 446 were minor. In these accidents, 1,232 victims were involved and of these, 257 people died and 975 sustained injuries,\u201d ASP Nampiima said.<\/p>\n

Speaker directs <\/b><\/p>\n

The rampant boda boda accidents prompted the Speaker of Parliament, Ms Anita Among, early this week to issue a directive to the deputy Inspector General of Police, Maj Gen Geoffrey Tumusiime Katsigazi, to find a solution to curb the accidents.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe face a crisis, especially on Kampala roads as a result of reckless boda boda riders. We must address it forthwith. You need to take critical steps to reverse this devastating trend and save lives on our roads,\u201d Ms Among said during a meeting with the Maj Gen Katsigazi yesterday.<\/p>\n

She added that police should tighten enforcement and traffic guidelines to rein in errant road users.<\/p>\n

As a result, police said Wednesday that they would start boda boda crackdown operations on November 11.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe Operation will target motorcycle riders without crash helmets, reflector jackets, driving permits, carrying more than one passenger and those without driving mirrors,\u201d ASP Nampiima.<\/p>\n
