This is the world's most expensive road ever built in the history of road construction and engineering. At Ksh 3.5 Billion per kilometre, it is ten times more than the average cost of building a six lane Class A road.
Even the Chinese do not spend such to build their own roads.
The cost of building the Nairobi Expressway has risen to Sh87.9 billion, from the Sh65.2 billion initial budget estimate provided by the Kenya National Highways Authority (Kenha).

Lucy, you dwell so much on showing off. Private jets, sleek cars, bodyguards etc. Leave that to celebrities.
You are a pastor. Try miracles like raising the dead, healing the sick in entire wards in hospitals and the likes.
You relax on a plane, even though you don't know the pilot. You relax in a ship, even though you don't know the captain .You relax on a bus, even though you don't know the driver.
Why don't you relax in life knowing that God is in control!

If I knew of an investment opportunity with returns between 125% to 150% per year, I wouldn't advertise it so that I share it with others.
I'd quietly borrow from a bank at 15% and invest so that I make all the money for myself.
I'm not saying this is a scam. Just that......
‘’The green house concept allows people to invest in our lands. We have two packages: One for Ksh. 320,000 and you get returns for Ksh. 400,000 in a year and the other Ksh. 380,000 with returns of Ksh. 550,00 in a year. It is paid semi-annually.’’- Maureen
