Accelerating Safer Roads Through Lifesaving Skills

The College, on November 13, 2025, took a significant step toward strengthening emergency response and road safety in Kenya during a high-level consultative meeting held at the EKA Hotel in Nairobi. The engagement, attended by representatives of the Japan International Cooperation Agency (JICA), road safety stakeholders, and KMTC officials, centred on the College’s Boda Boda First Responder Training Initiative, a country-wide programme transforming riders into lifesavers.

KMTC CEO Dr. Kelly Oluoch highlighted the vital role of boda boda riders as first responders, especially in areas where emergency services are delayed. With over 1.5 million riders nationwide and motorcycle-related crashes accounting for 33% of road fatalities in 2024, KMTC stressed the importance of equipping riders with essential emergency care skills.

“Who reaches the injured before the ambulance arrives?” Dr. Oluoch posed the question, noting that boda boda riders are often the first on the scene but lack the basic life-saving skills that could prevent avoidable deaths.

Over the years, the College has trained more than 9,000 riders across 90 campuses, offering practical skills such as bleeding control, safe lifting techniques, chest compressions, choking response, and scene management. The College has also integrated first aid and trauma management into all its academic programmes, ensuring that every KMTC graduate has lifesaving skills.

The meeting acknowledged key challenges, including funding gaps that limit national scaling. To train 10,000 additional riders, KMTC requires KES 14 million, excluding monitoring and evaluation costs. However, stakeholders agreed that the programme remains one of the most cost-effective investments in reducing preventable deaths, costing just Kshs 1,400 per rider for a two-day course.

Dr. Oluoch called on partners to support the next phase of the programme, saying, “KMTC brings the expertise, infrastructure, and credibility to transform community response, not as a project, but as a system.”

KMTC Strengthens Global Partnerships Ahead of 94th Graduation Ceremony

The College has today, November 13, 2025, hosted a delegation from the Ministry of Health, led by the Director, Health Sector Coordination and Research, Dr. Omar Ahmed, to lay the groundwork for an upcoming visit by an Angolan delegation, scheduled for December 4 to 8, 2025.

The discussions, chaired by CEO, Dr Kelly Oluoch, represented by the Deputy Director, Finance, Planning and Administration, Ms. Lucy Chebungei, focused on deepening collaboration between Kenya and Angola in health workforce training and development.
With a Government-to-Government Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) already in place, the meeting aimed to prepare for the upcoming visit by identifying key sites for the delegation to tour that showcase the country’s robust healthcare training and service delivery system.

The Angolan delegation’s visit follows a similar engagement in October 2023, when a joint team from Kenya, comprising Ministry of Health officials and a KMTC delegation led by the Board of Directors, visited Angola to explore areas of mutual interest and establish pathways for collaboration in healthcare training and capacity development.

Notably, the Angolan delegation will be among the guests at the KMTC 94th Graduation Ceremony, where the College will graduate over 22,000 well-trained, fit-for-purpose healthcare professionals into the workforce. The ceremony offers the visiting team a firsthand look at Kenya’s robust medical training model and its contribution to the health sector.

Speaking during the meeting, Ms Chebungei highlighted the College’s strengths, noting that a collaboration with Angola would represent “a new level of partnership that blends diplomacy, shared growth, and practical cooperation in healthcare training.”

Angola, with a population of over 36 million, continues to invest in rebuilding and expanding its healthcare sector. Kenya, through KMTC, is strategically positioned to support this effort by leveraging its extensive experience in training health professionals and strengthening primary health systems across the region.

As KMTC prepares to celebrate its 94th graduation and host the Angolan delegation, it continues to strengthen Kenya’s standing as a leader in health education, innovation, and cross-border cooperation, cultivating a workforce ready to transform health systems both locally and globally.
