Sakaja vows to fix Nairobi’s dilapidated roads

Nairobi Governor Johnson Sakaja has reassured city residents of an imminent solution to the city’s deteriorating road network, promising joint efforts between the County Government and the National Government.

Speaking before the Senate’s County Public Accounts and Investments Committee Sakaja outlined a collaborative plan with the Ministry of Transport to rehabilitate roads under the jurisdiction of the County, KURA, KeRRA, and KeNHA.

“When I got into office the first year we did Ksh735 million worth of roads and this last year we have done Ksh950 million worth of roads. We have been able to sit down with the national government on the need to prioritise roads some of which fall under its purview,” Sakaja Stated.

During the session, senators pressed Sakaja on the specific timelines for the project and whether there were measures to prevent future road damage caused by heavy trucks.

Senators in particular, questioned why certain city roads had been left in disrepair for months despite available funding.
