The Motorists Association of Kenya (MAK) has opposed the government’s decision to hand over the construction and management of the Nairobi-Nakuru-Mau Summit to a Chinese Roads company.
In a statement on Friday, October 24, 2025, MAK condemned the agreement.
“This move represents pure discrimination against Western-bound citizens and an alarming threat to Kenya’s sovereignty and economic independence. It is unacceptable to impose toll charges on Kenyans travelling westwards along the Northern Corridor while users of other major highways enjoy free access,” the association stated.
MAK questioned why the government was entering into a 30-year deal with a foreign contractor instead of financing the road directly through public funds.
