The government has announced 600 job opportunities for boda boda riders in Dubai.
Labour Cabinet Secretary Alfred Mutua said successful candidates will earn approximately Sh104,000 monthly, working a minimum of 15 trips a day.
"Officials from a United Arab Emirates company will be in Kenya next week to interview and hire motorcycle riders," Mutua announced in a post on X.
Applicants are required to submit a valid Kenyan passport or proof of an eCitizen application in progress, a current Certificate of Good Conduct or proof of an eCitizen application in progress, and a valid rider’s license.
Although boda boda experience is not mandatory, it will be considered an added advantage.
The selected candidates will undergo four months of training in Dubai, during which the company will assist them in obtaining UAE riding licenses. However, Mutua clarified that the company will not cover pre-arrival costs.
The interviews will be held over five days at two venues: December 9 to 11 at Kamukunji TVC in Nairobi and December 13 and 14 at Kilifi North TVC, Watamu Town, next to Watamu Primary School, in Malindi.
