Kenya National Highways Authority (KeNHA) has issued caution on a viral photo with misleading information.
The photo that captioned the Director General Kung’u Ndung’u was in reference to the beneficiaries in Nairobi’s Premier Expressway.
The 27km highway was commissioned in 2022, months before Eng. Kung’u Ndung’u was appointed to the position.
The road, built under a Public-Private Partnership model, is being managed by Moja Expressway, a Kenyan subsidiary of the China Road and Bridge Corporation (CRBC).
The road, which has become a darling to motorists, has so far accumulated billions in toll fees that are channeled to repaying the Chinese loan used for the construction.
Kenyans.co.ke, an online media company stated that the post didnt originate from its systems and therefore FALSE.
Publication of false information which is likely to harm the reputation of a person is a criminal offence under section 23 of the Computer Misuse and Cybercrimes Act (the CMCA).
The offense can attract millions of money in fines, or a lengthy jail term for persons involved.
