Residents win in row over substandard road works
Kajiado residents refused to accept what many Kenyans have become accustomed to—poor workmanship, substandard roads, abandoned public projects and disappearing public funds.
When Kajiado County Government awarded a contractor a Sh3.9 million contract to grade and gravel the Acacia Feeder Road in February 2024, Kitengela residents expected smoother journeys to Namanga Road and the town centre.
However, the contractor abandoned the project four months later after completing barely one kilometre of the promised four, leaving the estate's only access road covered with loose stone chippings, patches of exposed cotton soil and poor-quality murram that turned into dust during dry weather and mud whenever it rained.
