traffic jams in Kenya are being staged deliberately to further the agenda of the proposed nationwide tolling policy, the Motorist Association of Kenya (MAK) has claimed.

In a statement released on Thursday, August 28, the group alleged that a surge in traffic jams across major highways in Kenya was deliberate, urging Kenyans to reject the proposed plan.

The group accused the government of deserting its mandate to construct roads in the country and opting for private foreign investors instead.

This, according to MAK, would result in double taxation as foreign investment would result in the implementation of a toll policy.
