Isaiah is one of Nairobi’s ubiquitous boda boda riders; motorcyclists for hire as couriers. He has been at it for over 15 years now and has a rolodex of well-heeled clients. He appreciates the symbiotic relationship they share and does not in the least bit feel exploited by them.
Rather, he recognises that they are essential to his survival in the city. Occasionally, thugs on motorbikes will attempt to snatch purses or cellphones from unsuspecting pedestrians. But Isaiah and his colleagues always apprehend them before they get away. And this, not without some painful form of instant justice before they are handed over to the police.
