Buddy, you must own one of those colleges or you have shares in one otherwise why would you argue in favour of wasting good money for...you know what? Forget it....I think the argument presents itself. WHO DARES WINS

My point was that when I walk on Koinange street and Moi Avenue etc I see campuses of Egerton, Moi, JKUAT, maseno, Masinde Muliro etc etc hapo gorofani. There is nothing wrong with attending those campuses/unis.

If that is you point, then it is okay. There is nothing wrong with "gorofani" or CBD. One of the best Business Schools in Kenya and Africa - KIM - is situated "gorofani" in the CBD. And public universities with solid courses and faculty also have campuses in the CBD. My issue was that you should be careful with the University you are enrolling into - not necessarily the physical location. the only problem is that the CBD is littered with universities not worth their salt!

The word "just" in the phrase means a lot!!! There was a thread on English some time back. Maybe you should search for it! Never count on making a good sale.

NOTHING ELSE!!! Example Two:Politician are good at public speaking. >>Means politicians are good at public speaking. AND they might also be good in other things. Now get it???
