Am headed to Konza, will be requesting an allocation of at least 1000 acres and am sure it will be approved, am mostly investing in start ups but we have a great advantage and will be kicking off with some of the biggest brands and names in technology and investment globally. As for speculating in mburotis around, this
is difficult to say. But we shall be giving several technology startups an easy through pass, think of investing with the firms that will move there.

More details over the next few weeks.


We plan to build all out stand alone aka off grid infrastructure, eg japanese type jakaso systems for house sewage, "smart houses" or "smart huts" so to speak, culturally sensitive, and customised planning and development etc, all made here, we have other secrets that are key, including energy, etc but its really extensive, pray for us Pray


Why haven't we heard of this project of yours. I mean 20% uptake of Konza deseeves some news mention.

I said there is some info i cant yet disclose (secret) for many reasons, and tech involves a lot of that, but a few right people even in some far countries and at least one wazuan i know personally, have some idea, again who is "we have not heard" who is this "we", say you or 'I' have not heard sio we. I have not even requested allocation, but you will definately hear something soon. Konza is not the only place in Kenya, or globally this can be done, its just an option, because there is goodwill, and shared vision, if i dont get what i want, will look elsewhere, dont have to partner with them, even if it is politicized as a 'big allocation' i will dump konza idea straight away, no need arguing with peeps who have no vision and nothing to offer there technology wise but are greedily looking to ignorantly position themselves there to do jerk, politics and demand jobs from gava there, and ati to blindly "look for oppottunities" there . Again 1k acres in Konza is nothing in technology, it will be very exciting to Kenyans and Africans in general if and when such progress is made, lakini watazoea such "miracles".



I agree with @Murchr and @Chaka. You don't know what you are talking about. The 5,000 acres will be planned, zoned and allocated to investors to put up data centres, educational, offices, residential and hotel developments.

You don't just walk in and get 1,000 acres of the city unless you are investing Trillions of Shillings and involve GOK as a main PPP partner. In this case, given GOK red tape, you are better off buying the 1,000 acres from elsewhere and developing your own private city like Renaissance's Tatu, Centum's Vipingo, Brookside's Northlands. There are numerous incentives for private cities and Special Economic Zones

Shauri yako, basi, what can i say, go and agree with them basi we see what it will help you with, wont stop me from getting what am aiming at. Ati investors, who are these investors? Or only wazungus? The one you have ati " heard of" enda kwa wale you have heard of to put your data centers for whatever there and leave my contribution to konza alone.

The vision of konza has been stated as hosting technology "knowledge industries", the knowledge economy is what will drive konza not some static ideas about " data centers", innovation is key and if you have no capacity to innovate in tech dont just talk of data centers, za nani? those are merely proposals, of a long list, anyone who has no technology based knowledge to offer konza has no idea what konza is about, i will ignore ignorant posts that lead nowhere and respond to any post that geniunly seeks knowledge on this issue, we have heard all sorts of ideas, come with yours sio kubishana ovyo tu!

On the issue of allocation of land, this is a decision for the Key decision makers, The President and Parliament, not wazuans and those are the people i will be seeking, this others commenting are not even worth the time i have taken to respond to.

In brief, am soon headed to konza, wait for the news on issue of our request and we want the land FREE, sio kuniambia i buy land and the land has been provided and bought by GOK for my work!!

I have scoured Wazua tried to look for a meaningful contribution from you but came up with nothing. It's interesting how you came up with a plan to get 1,000 acres of Konza overnight.

Take some fanta and clear your head from delusions by whatever you consumed yesterday.

Am sorry it doesn't work like that.

What do you know about technology? Well am the one saying what i want there, keep it here and see who will rule the day, this is about vision, not silly arguments.


I do not know you.

I currently work in one of the technology cities in the world right now.

And when i tell you it doesn't work like that I know what am talking about but I will not argue with you.




Good, don't just argue ovyo ovyo, give your points, some have said this is a white elephant, some think it is a place for assembling samsung phones, or coding for american firms the way wahindis do, or just narrowly copying what others are doing ni kama konza ni exhibition halls zaa tom mboya street, peyana mawazo zako, and lets see if you will enter konza before me, i can bet 1 million Kes. Payable by december, put your money where your mouth is or give your opinion.

Always the optimist and wishing you all the luck. Go Much know go!
