[quote=josimar]My friend You are yet to visit Lamu mainland where a small local tribe called the AWER's or Mboni as they are popularly known live. You will attest they are not Kenyans and where they live the nearest school or health facility is over km away .[/quote.]

I have used that road from Mokowe(lamu mainland) to Kiunga upto ishakani.The area is undeveloped,kids have jiggers (in one of the villages on your way to kiunga(I dont think Ahadi Kenya even know that village),There is no public transportation.People co-exist with the elephants. But once in Kiunga the scenery is orgasmic.The bajun fish(its claimed they are crossbreeds of shainese and swahili) are great to eat,beautiful white beaches, the marine life,the dhows,the fishing(actual fishing with fishing nets) etc.

It is here that i was told the octopus increases your libido

In Kiunga and ishakani any new visitor has to register with the kenya police on arrival and departure.

Safaricom foundation is trying to set up a primary and secondary school in the area

The country would rather build roads in areas where those roads will lead to more "revenue"(tax) generation. That is why most rural areas has been ignored and maginalised. NE was always a strong zone of Moi yet he left it untouched for ages. Kibaki too did little. And thus, the central govt having failed for 50 years, then we can only try a different formula and thats why I think devolution might be right.


I was being told about some key roads that were earmarked for tarmacking in Isiolo county during Kibaki's tenure. The area leaders refused saying that will open up the area to prostitution and other vices.


The only Key road in Isiolo county is Nanyuki-Isiolo-Marsabit-Moyale road of which it has been tarmacked to Merille or which road did they refuse to be tarmacked and left agreed for the isiolo-Merille road to be tarmacked?


Certainly not Nanyuki Moyale and of course its tarmacked. There is a road I encountered on my way to Sericho. I think it connects Isiolo and Garissa. I stand collected though. Clearly I was napping during geography lessons by one Mr Kanumbi (RIP)

The Isiolo - Wajir - Mandera Road is a Class A road (Thika Road Class) since it connects Kenya to Somalia. To move from Isiolo to Garissa, you will branch at Modogashe and head southwards.

The entire A2 road is being tarmacked right now from Merille-Marsabit-Turbi-Moyale (Ethiopia Boarder).

The Garissa-Daadab-Liboi-Somalia (A3) road design was done some years ago (~2-3) and JUSTICE demands that that road be done ASAP.

Shame on you Shame on you Shame on you Shame on you Shame on you

The Garissa-Modogashe and Modogashe-Wajir Roads are Class c and B Roads respectively, hence under KeNHA. The county governments are powerless there, they are supposed to take over (handle) those roads under KURRA and KERRA, thats what i understood about their roles!


Even KURRA and KERRA the National gaarment was hesitant to leg go!!!

I used to travel to Mandera frequently and i can attest that ROADS DO NOT EXIST.
You have to search for them.
During rainy season you can stay put for even more than five days as you wait for the flooded plains to dry and become motorable.
Even during the dry season it used to take 2 to 3 days to travel.
In the past the Government had tried to tarmac the road staring from Mandera but when they reached Rhamu all work stopped.

Which past and tarmac are you referring to? I dont think any adult who has grown and lived/lives in mandera has ever stepped on a tarmac road
