Note to Nation.
You don't acquire an internet company so that you can implement your own failed methods.
Ask Ghafla.
You want to be acquired by someone who's better than you and only needs to either get rid of our brand or leverage on what they know.
Exactly what new thing is Nation going to add to Kenyan Buzz? Money? I know Kenyan buzz owners are very happy. As for Nation.....again ask Ghafla and
My goodness just been informed they were acquired for 2 million. A 10 year old site that's supposed to be the best in the country cannot be sold for 2 million.
Unless of course someone is lying...Either the author of the rumor or Kenyan Buzz owners...I'd rather die in poverty than give out a 10 year old site for 2 million.

Why ask Ghafla? What happened to them? This acquisition is good for Nation whether they run it well or not. It's easier for a big organisation to acquire than build afresh because customer acquisition is a nightmare and failure rate higher since they'd be going for the same clientele, also losing to the inferior competitor would be doom.

Exactly what is happening here is what happened with Ghafla.
You get bought by a company which doesn't know your business.
Now tell me, who's going to be running this company?
Linus Gitahi?
And stop lying to people. Customer acquisition is not a nightmare. Mpasho did it in 6 months. Just writing about Vera Sidika's buttocks. Just say these fellows don't know how to do it.
If they ran down Nsoko which is just like Kenyan Buzz, what makes you think they won't destroy this one too?
Oh, by the way, just saw a post by the former kenyanlyrics on wazua...I can see he agrees with me.

The last time I saw that man, he was checking out some fish who was stocking doom up the shelves of Nakumatt TRM. I must confess, there's no way any eye would miss that behind. :-d

:-d :-d :-d it's obvious I don't know anyone in Nation. I only know of Madowo and James Smart and tafakari ya babu at nation...Hao wengine sijui kaikai, gitahi etc I just read about on wazua.:-d [/quote]
Wameenda wengi. On acquisition of Kenyabuzz, this is Nation getting into the lifestyle magazine business. Just like the way NBC owns E! Entertainment and ET is owned by CBS TV. The young lads are tired of news/siasa 24/7. However, I hope they grow to create tv content and leave madowo out of it
