40,000 dead in 10 years: What ails Kenya’s roads

Over a decade has passed since more than 40,000 Kenyans lost their lives on the nation's roads, as per official records. The reasons behind this tragic loss of life are multifaceted, encompassing substandard construction in certain road sections, the absence of crucial infrastructure like footbridges, and the reckless actions of both motorists and pedestrians.

Furthermore, criminals exploit social media platforms to entice unsuspecting victims to isolated locations, where they are subjected to robbery. The Finance and National Planning Committee is advocating for revisions to the Sessional Paper, urging its adaptation to encompass the Fund's risk-management framework. In a particularly poignant case, a mother's financial support played a pivotal role in determining whether her former son-in-law would be entitled to a share of property in Karen.
