By Wilson Amondo 

Nairobi, Kenya—5July 2025 

In a landmark celebration of innovation and impact, AA Kenya hosted the inaugural Road Safety Excellence Awards Gala Dinner yesterday at Pullman Nairobi Upperhill. The event drew top leaders from government, industry, academia, and civil society, all united by a shared mission: safer roads for every Kenyan.


The awards recognized individuals, organizations, and institutions that have driven transformative road safety initiatives nationwide—with hundreds of submissions evaluated against measures of impact, innovation, and sustainability.

Guests of honor included Principal Secretary in the State Department of Sports Hon. Elijah Mwangi, NTSA Director General Mr. George Njau, Traffic Commandant Dr. Fredrick Ochieng, and key representatives from Kenya Police Service, Kenya Airways, KCA University, and the Kenya Motor Sports Federation.

“Tonight’s awards serve a triple purpose: to recognize excellence, inspire replication, and catalyze enduring change. It’s time to walk the talk. Road safety is everyone’s responsibility.”

This launch builds on AA Kenya’s April announcement of the awards, part of its broader mission to reduce fatalities through robust, evidence-based innovation.


“These awards are a strategic contribution to the UN Decade of Action for Road Safety (2021–2030) and Kenya’s Vision 2030. Under the FIA umbrella, we are empowered not just to dream of safer roads but to build them.”

“Every statistic has a face, every number a name. The champions we recognize tonight have turned data into decisive action. This ceremony is not the finish line—it’s the launchpad for the next era of Kenyan road safety.”
