Kilimani remains one of the most vibrant economic hubs in Nairobi city.
Yet some of the roads are in a bad state. Argwings Kodhek Road, named after a national hero, is in a sorry state, with potholes and an uneven surface endangering road users.
While many potholes have been filled on this busy road, some still remain.
Many times motorists are forced to swerve to avoid hitting the potholes, only to have to swerve again to avoid crashing into oncoming traffic.
What makes the situation worse is the fact that the road has no proper markings.
This endangers lives. It needs to be re-tarmacked and have the road markings put into place. But the worst road is Wood Avenue, Kilimani.
The potholes on this road are numerous and could easily destroy vehicle tyres and parts. Some are deep and dangerous.
Motorists cringe in near-agony as they drive along this potholed mess of a road.
It's a nasty experience many have to endure daily. In this day and age, this need not be the case.
Nairobi Governor Johnson Sakaja must order his team to move fast and repair these roads and patch up the potholes across the entire city.
A good starting point would be Wood Avenue, Kilimani. It's in a sorry state and makes the city look bad in the eyes of visitors.
