Ain't that swell? The dozen or so families that own three quarters of Nairobi are beaming as they lure more Chinese investors who are bringing "real development" to Kenya. Am sure the Kenyattas, Kirimas, Michukis, Njenga Karumes, Gachanjas, Mois, et al, are celebrating this seminal development.

Do you have a link to alternative development from your american friends that we can all appreciate. AVIC are invest back in Kenya after winning big contracts like 20B Two Rivers and the GreenField in JKIA. Everyone including suppliers, workers and eventually tenant will benefit. The economy too. And the land owners.

Alternative development? Well, the entire Kenyan state's institutions and regulatory frameworks are provided by us. Yes, including the one that's landed your cabinet secretary Waiguru in hot water IFMS. Look, we've contributed pretty much everything to advance human civilization since, say, 1900, including trying to assist you, our brothers and sisters in Kenya. And that includes that little something called entrepreneurship, which though French in word, is American in practice.
* Here's the big thing in Kenya today. Uhuru Kenyatta is arguably the most pro-American Kenyan president since your country's independence. Uhuru's inner sanctum of advisers are all American educated, trained and oriented. In Kenyan parlance these are the men and women with titles "Special Advisor" of this and that - folks that 99.9% of Kenyans never get to hear about.
Ruto, by temperament and disposition belongs to the "Rook East" alignment - read China.

Sound pretty much like nothing to me. I'm sure America invented the word invention. So no worries. Let just say for now you cannot point to single investment that is worth what AVIC are doing. They already paid the highest ever construction permit fee..something nearly 100M Kshs...to Kidero.
Those are 4 very tall towers that will overshadow Nairobi and underlies China's continued investment in this country. 20B worth of FDI. Just imagine if we can attract 20 more chinese companies.
Meanwhile continue scrapping the bottom of the barrel looking for evidence of mmm the lost glory while I celebrate yet another chinese company choosing Kenya has it Africa's HQ. StarTimes 7B towers in karen must be coming up.
