Sad{|= d'oh! Sickquot; i don't want to come out as a pessimist but consider this...
we can't even buy BVR's when the time comes we are all procurement experts and we know the best BVR kits even those who don't know the meaning of it,we refurbish outdated boogie wagons and pretend we are setting up a commuter rail. ground breaking for most projects is postponed 10-15 times before it really happens we have build slums all around nairobi we can't get enough space.

The moment a space will be allocated as an olympic village every other kenyan will want an 1/8th for flats and 60X40 for commercials around the place and we will have a slum complete running efficiently before the olympic village is complete.
who's fooling who !

..This guy is unbelievable why mislead the country?? sounds like the Ayacko guy some years back who said Kenya would hoast the world-cup..

@Mcreggae i have no party/leader affiliations but having seen almost first hand what it takes to organise the olympic games, small wonder no African country has ever hosted it! It will take an ENOURMOUS amount of cash,goodwill from politicians,a complete revamp of infrastructure,accomodation, JKIA will need to be extended (further),companies will need to work on flexi-time,security the list is endless.

..Try and google the report by CISCO on the bottlenecks they faced in preparation for this olympics? (Do you know NBC'S streaming link broke down during men's 100m final, guys in the US waliona recorded version) LOCOG website crashes everyday here and this is powered by BT,trust me when i tell you hatuwemek!!

The greatest danger in times of turbulence is not the turbulence; it is to act with yesterday's logic.
