    I visited Nairobi during 2017 Christmas but didn't see these infrastructures. On the contrary the center (between River Road and Uhuru Highway), roads were plenty of potholes and indicipline driving particularly on Tomboys Street. But if what I am witness on this video is the true situation,I say congratulations to the Uhuru administration though I was against his return to the office in the lattest ended electios

    They should have got automated number plate at the entry point so when you get to the exist it automatically shows how much money you owe and therefore just pay. It would have reduced the waiting needed for scanning, typing and then telling drivers the amount. Big deal when too many cars end up using the the express way.

    The Chinese now need to manage that road network for the next 127 years because the moment they hand management over to Kenya, that entire system and network will collapse overnight. Kenya is poor at managing anything and the only reason that entire road network and system is sanely operational, is because the Chinese are the big kahunas and not Kenyans or the Kenya government. I hope they appoint a Chinese businessmen to clean up Kenya airways, ports authority, Water department, Kenya pipeline and management at Kenya power.
