National Assembly Majority leader Amos Kimunya has criticised Jubilee administration's Sh162 billion Nairobi-Naivasha SGR project, saying it was ill-advised. In a rare rebuke of Uhuru's projects, Kimunya said there were many populist issues introduced into the Nairobi-Naivasha stretch that shot up its cost. "Amos Kimunya has criticised President’s SGR project to Naivasha calling it SGR to nowhere. He was reacting to claims that the expensive SGR line headed to 'nowhere' after its expansion to Western Kenya aborted. Kenya will start repaying the SGR Naivasha line loan from the end of this month in addition to the current loan for the Nairobi-Mombasa line.
