\n}<\/p>\n

In an interview with the Union president Gafora Sentibagwe, he said that this is part of their grand target to have anti-crime clubs in all the 17 cooperatives by the end of January 2016.<\/p>\n

“On December 16 last year, Rwanda National Police donated Rwf2 million to 16 motorcycle taxi operators’ cooperatives which were registered in Rubavu at the time, which helped us in our human security activities,” Sentibagwe said.<\/p>\n

“This left us challenged \u200eand it’s time to put our ideas together to reinforce community policing activities and contribute to the general security by identifying, fighting, preventing and reporting crimes to police in time,” he added.<\/p>\n

Gafora went on to add that; \u201cwe could not have succeed in our businesses if we weren\u2019t secure. It is a responsibility for everyone to prevent crimes from happening and when they do, it\u2019s still a responsibility for all to report and support police in identifying and arresting suspects.\u201d<\/p>\n

“This starts among ourselves by having members who are professional, disciplined and who don’t indulge in illegal dealings.”<\/p>\n

The Rubavu District Community Liaison Officer, Inspector of Police (IP) Janvier Nsana, who witnessed the formation of the clubs enriched motorists with knowledge of the major crimes and how to avoid them.<\/p>\n

“This is a great contribution to effective community policing. Taking on this responsibility means you have to always be curious of everything since most criminals prefer moving by commercial motorcycles,\u201d\u200e IP Nsana said.<\/p>\n

The motorcyclist anti-crime clubs find other over 800 clubs formed by students in secondary schools countrywide.<\/p>\n
