Kenya: Roads Sector Best Managed in the Country - Muriuki
The roads sector is the best managed in Kenya, the chairman of the Nairobi Central Business District Association Timothy Muriuki had said. Speaking at the end of a two-day conference attended by major stakeholders in the sector including representatives from the Ministry of Roads, the NCBDA and the Kenyan Urban Roads Authority, Muriuki said the establishment of counties should not disrupt the existing status quo as far as roads sector was concerned. "Politically, the roads sector is the best legacy the President will leave behind at the end of his term. We should not destroy this legacy post 2012. County authorities are yet to take up road management, but when they do, they should take into consideration the present achievements in the sector," said Muriuki.
