Retired President Uhuru Kenyatta’s government spent Sh1.4 trillion building roads in his 10-year stint, opening up the country while also saddling it with debts.

This was nearly six times what his predecessor Mwai Kibaki spent in his two terms, with some of his largest road projects being the Thika Superhighway, which cost the country a total of Sh26.7 billion.
