Activist Boniface Mwangi has once again refused to pave way for a VIP motorcade using the wrong side of the road in order to avoid the traffic.
Reacting to the incident, the activist took to Twitter to air his reservation on what he termed as clear violation of the law.
“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,” wrote Mwangi on his Twitter page
In video footage shared on his Twitter account, the controversial Activist was heard questioning the security personnel of the ‘VIP’ why he was using the wrong path.
A voice, seemingly of Boniface Mwangi, was heard saying “no, no, no, I am not going to move. Who is this? Obey the law!”
