Just heard on Citizen that other than the Kshs 55M, Safaricom was do to some rehabilitation and other improvements. The total deal is actually worth about 200 Million.


Yeah, heard the same on Citizen. It seems better than reported. However, the Chinese rehabilitated the place and handed over this year. So I'd be interested in other than a SCOM colors paint job, what else these 'rehabilitation' works SCOM talk about are?

NB: My previous query on process still stands.

Can't an independent valuation of the MISC Kasarani branding rights be done then we know what its worth? 55M does seem like pittance..maybe Sumsung could afford triple.. Let SMB advertise MISC branding and let the best bid win.


Unless he lied in National TV, an official from SMB said clearly that they advertised and safcom gave the best offer...please listen to the youtube link at the beginning of this post and comment.

Good. Seems all procedure was followed. The issue is now with the Committee of Parliament and I hope they will not do the silly thing of rejecting it because the taxpayer will have to refund Safaricom for all the money they have used on the Stadium. Why is it that it is only URP MP's who are against it?

I believe this is a very positive step. Govts. have consistently failed in the upkeep of all sports facilities.

BBI will solve it
