Motorists using the Nakuru-Nairobi highway will pay toll fees for up to 30 years once its dual upgrade is completed.

The dualling will be part of the 175-kilometre upgrade which will start at Rironi, proceed to Nakuru town, and terminate at the Mau Summit. The dual carriageway is being undertaken at a cost of Ksh160 Billion.
The Kenya National Highways Authority (KeNHA) disclosed that a private investor who was contracted for the project will set up toll stations where motorists will pay for using the road.
“They will raise finances for the road project, design, construct, maintain and operate the road on pre-agreed standards and specifications. The concession period is 30 years and they will run it for 26 and a half years,” KeNHA Project Manager Kefa Seda disclosed.

That is illegal, and the only way to manage this is to have an alternative road that is maintained by the public so that those who cannot afford to pay can use it while the well off can pay to use the private road.

The same arrangement as mombasa road

Is there anything legal and illegal in this country anymore? Where pesa an kujua watu iko, laws become fluid.
