Forbes on Phombe. If Nairobi despite Kidero the zombie is 3rd, imagine how bad Gaberone must be. Business opportunities are like buses,there's always another one coming

For a fact the city is rather cleanish...yes we can do better esp down town Nairobi but uptown is indeed clean...the roads are being sorted out...for the traffic jams thats a rather complex matter...the other day I read this...www.nation.co.ke/business/City-middle-class-snubs-train-shuttles-and-sticks-to-cars/-/1950106/2134526/-/format/xhtml/-/1hog0x/-/index.html ...to the traffic lights yes some dont work but those that do are ignored...today I was almost knocked by some stupid guy who ignored the red- stop light plus I noticed that if there is no cop at the roundabout almost everyone jumps the light...we have just bad manners... What about the hawkers whats the best way to deal with them...a case usually looked upon as CORD vs Jubilee...these guys are everywhere and increasing by the day... possunt quia posse videntur

Nairobi, surely! Ok. In the business world, everyone is paid in two coins - cash and experience. Take the experience first; the cash will come later - H Geneen

We aint doing bad.  I have always known that nbo is far much better infrastructure wise than other African cities. maka wrote:

Allocating them specific places,has failed to work. Don't know the best remedy.

There is so much positive going on but a lot of Kenyans are inherently negative and the media doesn't help the cause either. For example, a simple question to most Kenyans on how life is will yield a negative comment ...."maisha ni ngumu sikuhizi" ..tunang'ng'ana tuu...etc. SMH Also a lot Kenyans are not widely traveled to realize what they have.

Kidero is 10 times better than kafogo, I swear. Gone are the days I always looked forward to driving back to my hometown.... Nairobi is good, n eastlando is changing considerably for the better. ORR project will be the ultimate gamechanger! TULIA.........UFUNZWE!

washiku wrote:Ngonjeni @Alma aone hii mtakipata haha not really. The article was comparing cities in africa. It did not say they are good cities. It was saying that its better than the other masukuma Africans. I say this coz today, I happened to be in the city center. I saw pickup full of "these people". One of "those people" opened the door and "these people" were paying him some murchr bebapay. That is the real nairobi Where ODM gofana, Kidero, oversees the biggest extortion game in africa. Better than the mafia. And the TNA president elects a nutcase to run a corporation then changes his mind in the morning. Do you guys even know what really happens in nairobi or do you just look at the samsung advert on KICC and get mesmerized? Before you answer, please remember it was a white man's reporter that was praising africans. Just like in the zoo. Jose: If I make it through this thug life, I'll see you one day. The Lord is the only way to stop the hurt.

Surely what makes Accra better than Nairobi? "There are only two emotions in the market, hope & fear. The problem is you hope when you should fear & fear when you should hope: - Jesse Livermore

Honestly if Nairobi is third, then Africa is really in the dungeons.With all this insecurity, the first thing one does when the buy a 'Toyota' is to weld metalic strips on the head lamps and chain the side mirrors!!
You can hardly park in the city centre with a laptop in your boot and find it when you return!
I agree Nairobi/Kenya is making some progress but it's at snail's pace.
And yes.......tembea ujionee....

At least for me I have travelled allover the world, via internet though, and I know that for a fact!!!!! @Kiash, what says you? Receive with simplicity everything that happens to you.” ― Rashi

Jo'burg really? Nairobi? We need to sort security, public transport, roads and water problems first. If we're that high up on the list, just how bad are the other cities?
BBI will solve it :)
