The Independent Policing Oversight Authority (Ipoa) has launched a probe into Saturday's killing of Tharaka Nithi bodaboda association chair even as the Bobaboda Safety Association of Kenya threaten to hold countrywide protests.

The Association has given security agencies a one-week ultimatum to arrest the police officer who allegedly shot Willis Mugambi, 31, as police dispersed protesters in Chuka.
