Kenya should focus more on developing infrastructure

NAIROBI: Two decades ago, road trips to my in-laws home in Elgeyo Marakwet County were a bitter-sweet experience. Almost the entire road network was full of potholes that drastically slowed down the journey as they messed with the health of both the vehicle and those in it. We would crawl along, only fuelled on by the joy of family that awaited us. Thankfully, this road network is now evidently changed.

Indeed, infrastructure constitutes the veins of a country. It is through infrastructure that goods and people are able to move towards a green economy and more constructive interaction. Infrastructure developments create jobs and once complete greatly enhances green businesses.
