I would never touch it. Not before we fully transit to the new constitution anyway. I don't know anyone or anything with worser reputation than the NCC. Not even Hitler. This would transform Ngilu and her Water ministry into angels.

BBI will solve it

I wouldn't touch it even with a 50ft barge pole. The kanju can hardly manage its current resources, corruption is rife (although am told things are changing for the good), PR is pathetic.
I can't even fathom what would convince me to take part in this. I simply can't.

Halleluyah!! this is a good investment opportunity for the dare devils.... but, eeeeeh, i will let it pass.

LOL!! NCC would need a consortium of 10 PR firms before they pull this off on local investors and it better be asset backed coz enyewe NCC does have some serious real estate that can be redeveloped!!

Crap. Nairobi is dead, killed by the counties. Jobs are moving to 46 different counties, who will be left in Nairobi?

Another point, Nairobi is also being killed by the emerging suburbs like Tatuu, Kitengela, Mavoko, etc. Proof? Look at Johannesburg. For those who have visited it, did you go to the city? No, because there is Sandton, Eastgate, Westgate etc.

If it had a good premium above the GoK bonds, I'd definitely jump in with both feet.

It will be so hard to pull off this but i wish they get good advisers on how to entice the investing populace to take the bond.

One way they could organize for a sinking fund a/c. this would ensure at the end of the bond period its fully paid.

How ? they plan to use KRA to help in collecting their revenues, before they pass the funds KRA would deposit a %age to the sinking fund account.

Just saying.
The problem with the world is that the intelligent people are full of doubts while the stupid ones are full of confidence
