Laikipia County launches a fleet of motorcycle ambulances to improve emergency response for mothers and infants in remote areas with poor road networks.

The Laikipia County Government has launched a fleet of motorcycle ambulances in a bold initiative to bridge the gap in emergency healthcare for remote communities.
Targeting the vast and rugged terrain of Laikipia North, these specialized units are designed to reach areas where traditional ambulances struggle to navigate. The primary mission is clear: to reduce maternal and infant mortality by ensuring that pregnant women and newborns can reach medical facilities in time, regardless of the road conditions.
For decades, expectant mothers in the region have faced life-threatening delays due to poor infrastructure. The new motorcycle ambulances offer a practical solution to this logistical nightmare:
Governor Joshua Irungu praised the launch as a game-changer for the county's health indicators. "No mother should die giving life because of a lack of transport," he stated during the flagging-off ceremony.
As these lifesavers hit the dirt roads, they carry with them the hope of a safer future for Laikipia’s mothers and children. It is a simple innovation with the potential to save countless lives.
