A section of Nakuru residents have protested against a Sh2.1 billion agreement between the county government and the National Youth Service to maintain feeder roads, terming it illegal.

They have said they will go to court to stop the pact where the county has tasked NYS with full responsibility for maintaining roads under the Imarisha Barabara programme over the next year.
