Forbes wrote:“Samsung had been targeting Kenya as its base to build an assembly plant for the Eastern African region and a top government official asked for a $10m parting kickback for the license forcing them to move to Ethiopia. One governor asked for a $10m kickback – an amount that was larger than the intended capital of the proposed investment,” says Watima.

We were inspired and sought to lease the Sameer Business Park. What followed was a circus after cartels infiltrated the deal and wanted in on it. We were forced to abandon the deal and concentrate on Konza.

What is wrong with us Kenyans? Very sad indeed.
I agree with you that Kenya needs to think about a new metropolis. But that can't happen in the hands of politicians. Politicians in the whole world should never be allowed to control such projects.
Just looking at the cabals in Tatu City which is private should scare you on the scale of mass corruption that would be at Konza.
Even Muthama is in court for doing funny stuff in the area.
We are behaving just as Muslim clergy who keep quiet when terrorists attack in the name of Allah. We as Kenyans have decided that its ok to be corrupt. Very fine indeed. Infact, we shall vote you in.
Guys like Ndemo were living the American dream in a corrupt society. Konza was dead before it began.
Man loosing Samsung to a bloody governor thief. The man should be in jail. Instead, he shall be re-elected with a resounding victory for saying "Kikuyus are taking all the jobs!"
Thieves are not good people. Tumeelewana?
