I agree with this opinion. The problem with our governors is that they are not able to think outside the box. Mutua spent much of his youthful time in Dubai and USA and got mesmerised with big cities, now he thinks he can plant Dubai in Machakos pap. Building a city is like climbing a tree, you always start from the bottom never from the top.
It would have been better strategy to look for water first – for domestic use first then irrigation.

And Kenyans Keep watching as Dr Alfred Mutua teaches you some very important lessons. When he said he's going to host CECAFA 90% of Kenyans rubbished the idea, he set aside around 5M to rehabilitate the stadium ( note close to the same amount Siaya is hoping to spend in the reelection bash of the gov) many asked him how grass would grow there.....go have a look at his facebook page. If your still doubting him think again.

I would rather give the governor the space he needs than criticize his idea with empty rhetoric. When a certain guy said that he'll build a ship with steel, many people thought he was a fool. Well, steel sinks in water and the people were entitled to their opinions anyway. When the Wright brothers said they'll build a plane to go through air, many thought it was another damn idea. Well, it had not been done before and no one would have thought it would be possible. Give the governor his chance.

I will not visit to ask but wish him well. Am only offering constructive criticism which he is entitled to ignore

Just stambled upon this in a googles group, any one with info on this guys,

AFFORDABLE PLOTS FOR SALE. Located at only 25 km along Magadi road
from Kiserian. There is a very pure coming upcoming town called Ol
tepesi also known as Tinga. Interestingly many prominent persons and
highly acclaimed institutions have purchased land in this area because
the proposed Greater Southern Bypass is passing through that area
(connecting Mombasa road through Konza City, Isinya, Magadi Road, and
Narok at Suswa), thus creating a vast opportunity for the growth and
development of Tinga Town. Also the road from Kiserian through
Olepolos to Magadi is being widened and re-tarmaced. Oltepesi is also
the proposed Kajiado West Administration Location.
