As we walk out of the festive season and now struggling to survive the January blues, the western part of the country has this time experienced a kind of excitement which was expressed in several sittings during the holidays. There was talk about an upcoming superhighway connecting Nairobi- Limuru’s dual carriageway to Eldoret, Kisumu and Malaba. The talk emanated from the launch of the Rironi-Mau Summit road project.
