On Kenyan roads, especially those contracted by local firms, often one won’t miss a pothole. These potholes show a sign of poor and shoddy work from those who were given the work to do.

Besides, the larger the pothole and their increase in number clearly show the high rate of corruption in the country.
But one pothole along Karatina-State Lodge can be excused if it disagreed with the ideas above.
The pothole, naturally falling to the tyre friction, weather and gravity has gradually evolved into a shape of love, often represented by a heart.
If it was not in Kenya, the Western world couples would exchange vows on the poor pothole and even re-name it ‘road of love’.
Chances of it being a tour attraction would be so high!
That said, the poor state of our roads cannot be ignored. A ‘good’ constructed road would take barely six months before it gets potholes.
One suggestions, the government should put extra signs besides names of the roads, indicating those who were responsible with the road upgrading.
Incase of a complain, the citizens can hold demos channeled towards those who were tasked
