Relief as Mathare Hospital Ward gets first paved road since independence

Since time immemorial Mathare hospital ward has been the only ward without proper roads network and although it is the only ward in Nairobi which host the famous Mathare mental hospital, Mathare police depot and several international NGO’S with a population of 20,463, Mathare hospital ward still lacked proper roads network.

Many residences living in this ward faced many challenges since there was no motorized bridge connecting hospital ward and Juja road commuters had to carry goods using Thika road to enter Mathare hospital ward which in turn was very expensive hence making many investors look for other areas to start businesses.
