The Minister of Health; Daniel Ngamije says that the 'taxi moto' riders are picked from different areas and tested in the ongoing effort to ensure no community infections of the virus in the country.
The spokesperson of Rwanda National Police, Commissioner of Police John Bosco Kabera reminded that the 'taxi moto' riders and clients are expected to follow the rules that have been put in place.
A study conducted by Rwanda Utility and Regulatory Agency (RURA) shows that motorcycle taxis make up 60 per cent of the public transport.
The Director General of RURA, Patrick Nyirishema told The New Times that a deeper analysis indicated that even with other options, many people still use and will continue using motorcycle transport.
"We still have a lot of feeder roads where they don't operate in which case people will still depend on private transport - motorcycles or taxi cabs to be able to move," he noted.
