A man has been sentenced to three years in prison, with no option of paying a fine, for vandalising road infrastructure along the Mau Summit-Nyahururu Highway.
According to the Kenya National Highways Authority (KeNHA), the suspect was nabbed on Tuesday following a tip-off from members of the public. The Authority, working in coordination with the Salgaa base, apprehended the individual as he vandalised a road sign between Sobea and Westlands.
KeNHA said the punishment is intended to serve as a deterrent against further acts of vandalism on critical road assets.
