I know some people with land at Tuala and they were offered 10M per acre(heresay) though they were asking for 30M.

Air conditioned yes, no stops yes but that service will be introduced soon.


So, you guys have even Tv stations to cater for ethnic languages? very sad indeed.

We should strive to create a homogenous society but not to strenghthen what already divides us. Kiswahili should be the first language of most people by the year 2040. Tribal stations, Tribal Football teams, Tribal political parties have no place in modern society. A heretogenous society will not reap big from infrastructural development.

Have you been living in space? We now have radio TV YouTube podcasts catering to the various demographic societies living under the sun. Am sure there are several Kiswahili stations, so what is your problem again?

Why are Africans ashamed of their languages and culture? Especially in a world that is promoting multiculturalism and diversity? What if the Englishman was ashamed of his native language, aka mothertongue, English and instead used kikuyu to communicate to his people? No language is superior to any other in the world. Why should a joluo struggle to communicate to his people in English or kiswahili, a foreign language, while he can use the language of his people dholuo? We must do away with this inferiority complex. We are all equal. Proud citizens of this world.

@Bigchik, 1.Have they been paid? 2.Which authority is responsible for payments?

The reason I ask is coz the chinese have already erected 2 electricity poles, and are doing blasting on a small portion of that shamba.

Our languages need not divide us. They could be used as a tool for division, but we shouldn't do away with them

But, negative ethnicity and ethnic pride is not just reinforced by language. In Rwanda, the Hutu and Tutsi speak Kinyarwanda. 1 Language. That did not stop the genocide. People will still stick to their tribes even if we have 1 language

Joho should do something about the road to miritini SGR station. Hata kama ni kuweka murram on this road. Or is this his way of sabotaging the SGR project.

If our languages are what devides us, then pray tell, what divides the Somalis today? What divided the Rwandese, the Bosnians and Croatians?

What divides the Americans?

I dare say our divisions are not drawn so much from self created differences but rather our innate hatred of self and the other.

So is there a safe parking within the stations where people can leave their cars if they are returning the same day or the next similar to the Airport?

BBI will solve it

The opportunity is huge! If they have a parking lot then you can offer security services and maintenance. If not you can lease or buy land nearby and create a safe parking lot. Why use a taxi if your vehicle is cheaper for a same day return trip? In the US, people leave their cars in a lot, take the train to work and take their vehicles home in the evening or night.

hardwood yawa...ati Joho?

Anyway, at least this proves the point that on wazua there are those who get paid to say stuff, those that will say stuff just to sound happy and the minority who say stuff based on the reality on the ground.

As it stands now, the SGR is for the midro crass. Those that can afford to risk a trip to syokimau and miss a train. Then carry their bags in a boda boda from Miritini to Mombasa...

Ati parking in Mombasa. My fren you can't even leave your car overnight in Nairobi CBD now you want to leave it in Syokimau? Wacheni bwana.

The only way this railway is complete is when the last mile is complete. As it stands, the only people who find it complete are the paid bloggers who travel from syokimau to miritini and take videos. In their minds Syokimau is Nairobi and Miritini is Mombasa.

Hopefully no one will suggest another publicity stunt until the last mile is sorted. It reminds me of the Bush "mission accomplished" excitement before reality bit.
Thieves are not good people. Tumeelewana?
