This road was designed, the drawings were reviewed, and they were approved by Kenya National Highways Authority engineers. I have a simple question: do you believe those engineers approved drawings with an open drainage channel right next to a highway? After construction, the road was inspected and certified for payment. Another question: do you believe the as-built drawings submitted to KeNHA showed an open drain running alongside a live carriageway? If we assume it was only the resident engineers who was “seen” by the contractor to turn a blind eye to this obvious hazard, are we also saying that none of the directors at KeNHA have used this road or noticed the mistake? There is nothing as destructive as corruption. It is a cancer that quietly takes lives, all for the sake of a few extra coins. And those who have the power to act but choose not to ,whether corrupt or simply indifferent ,are part of that harm.
