Nema has indefinitely suspended the construction of Oinonobmoi-Barwessa-Kinyach road in Baringo over environmental pollution. The oversight agency said SBI International construction company has failed to suppress excessive noise and dust to acceptable standards. Some residents do not seem bothered by the dust and noise. Isaac Chepturo from Muchukwo village said, "We knew there would be dust and noise but we chose to preserve because we knew normal life will resume after the road is completed." “After receiving the information I pushed SBI, Nema and KeRRA to have a meeting over the environmental concerns,” he said.
