Now this is one right thinking Kenyan. Time and again,we say this at Dreamcities forum - Nairobi will NEVER recover! It doesn't really matter what roads,skyscrappers or whatever else we do,NBO is not waking up again - like Lagos before Abuja,it will remain overcrowded,real estate prices will be inflated to a point where no one can afford any more and evem office space will become a major issue with costs soaring by the day. This inspite of expanding to mlolongo!

Isiolo is central and it also opens up huge areas not previously developed. All that is needed is a second international airport and we are there! banks and other services will follow us there! Maji itatoka Mt.Kenya,stima iko,security needs to be tightened and land is in plenty.

Seriously,why do you think there is such a clash between the politicians in that region? They see the potential,and are fighting to control this 'city' Abuja was also wasteland,go there today and come back and report your findings here.

Yote yawezekana.

Administrative or Financial/Industrial capital; which would be better/easier?

This is my home town,haven't been there for a while (3 years now) - the weather is harsh to say the least.... but you get used to it after sometime....

Did you insinuate that oil is about to be struck around or near Isiolo?
We can actually start talking from there.
That is as far as the pros go for Isiolo.
The flip side is that it is in such proximity to bandit country that one shudders.
The Al shababs aren't too far either.

...wait till Hussein (former Police Commmissioner) becomes the president! He screwed our security. I am sure screwing our economy will mean nothing to him and will feel nothing....!!!.

Security is a non issue,there r several army camps there. Problem is the harsh weather. Too hot n dry.

Can silence be misquoted?

What a brilliant idea!

Just like flourishing Dodoma....our hyperintelligent neighbours had a similar idea....

Nanyuki is the most strategic place.

@B.Timer;

If by 'bandit country' you mean Ethiopia,then you need to revise your geography. The boarder town of Moyale is 580km from Isiolo by road...about 450km om a straight line.

And Liboi on the Somali boarder is another 450km by road (300km straight).

You probably missed the point that this whole suggestion of Isiolo as capital city is driven by the fact that this is the most central town in Kenya. When you get to Isiolo,you are at the centre of our country.
