Ruto has tried but judiciary is blocking everything.

We need to fix judiciary.

Until we fix it - we are wasting time.

Give them 50B from 20B - let them hire 1000 more judges

Let cases be resolved in months.



Actually not with Indians but Kenyan politicians cutting deals . You and I had advocated one of the way of doing away with debts was privatization of parastatals , it was a noble idea and could have saved Kenya from debt trap but politicians including Lootall  saw this as avenue to loot and cut deals , Uhuru and his proteges did that in last regime and thats why we are in the crisis we are . Kenyans have said enough is enough . Kenyan economic crisis is because of politicians cutting deals with nothing to show off .

Definitely trust issues with India.
But India is rising - and is the next China.
Ruto should not be afraid of Indians and public sentiment will change.
Chinese were not liked initially - as people had issues with perceived low quality
But they proved themselves.

Good thing with India - rising - we already have historical ties - so Indians will come.
Just maybe not in public projects.

Definitely Adanis are welcome in private ventures.

I agree with the President there. Countries that accept foreign investment and risk are rapidly developing. Kenyans have no money, so outside money must be used to develop the country.  Maybe the president should have attracted  Emirati billionaires like Kagame or Chinese to invest in Kenya instead. Kenyans seem not to trust Indian billionaires. The Chinese are already building skyscrapers in Kilimani and all over Nairobi, but those are private equity firms, and they are going undetected. I think in 2030 most Nairobians will have Chinese landlords simply because Africans have no financial muscle to develop the country in a meaningful way. African governments have recognized this barrier and are attracting capital from foreign capitals left, right, and center. Kenya, due to a trust deficit, is lagging behind in these equity migrations!

They have tried - Dangote put down what eventually became 25-30B investment.
But Nigeria is Nigeria
It cursed.

I learnt that Biden pardoned his son from Kenyan newspapers, I do not care about stuff like that. I am for whatever people want to do, this time, I am not worried about things that I cannot control or stop.

Dangote will likely be the billionaire to hit the trillion status quickly. That Dangote refinery is something to marvel at. If the African Union rallies behind him, energy costs will slowly spiral downward with drill, drill, drill while augmenting with renewables!

Nigeria's state-owned Port Harcourt refinery is finally back up and running. It is hoped that, along with recent launch of the privately-owned Dangote refinery, Nigeria will soon be able to supply the petrol products needed domestically while positioning Nigeria as a petroleum product exporter.

Teslas only same is the space station, as for cars he keeps promising but delivery is elusive.
The truck is a failure. Costs too much and it has too many issues
Yes, the Cybertruck is absolute garbage. I had the Cybertruck for a week, during which 10 things broke, but the stainless steel aging adds a unique touch. If you enjoy road trips, like I do, don't consider EVs; gasoline engines are always premium options. This is particularly true for those who do an annual road trip from Bakersville, CA, to Wilmington, NC, on I-40. EV will take you more than a week round trip! Suburban or Escalade: 3 days max!
