Cheap Asian motorcycles are transforming African cities

Cheap bikes from China and India are roaring about Kigali and many other cities. Africa has about 27m registered motorbikes, up from fewer than 5m in 2010, according to a report by the FIA Foundation, a global road-safety charity. Some 80% are used for deliveries or as two-wheel taxis, which are known by various names including okada, and boda boda. They are transforming mobility in Africa.
