You mean Kenya is being digitally transformed - which hopefully reduce graft and allow economies of scale as retail & wholesale formalize and middlemen are cut out. Bigger tax base is the immediate benefit. It also very easy for MNCs kina Alibaba, Uber, Amazon, AirBnB to snap a big pie of e-commerce as all sectors are Uberized. Glossaries are available online in Palo Alto. Mama mboga, real estate agents, makanga - these dinosaurs will be redundant.
You can ascertain - as food retail goes online - a few big agribusinesses take over everything from pitch-fork Kalenjin, Gema and all subsistence quarter acre 'farmers'. Peasantry will die with the rest of the jua kali market.
The demographic dividend is what will cause something akin to a leapfrog - Asian Tiger variety - cause a 121 worker-dependant ratio is a recipe for prosperity. Only civil war or serious instability as say US sanctions can squander the coming dividend. Hii ingine ya M-Pesa ama Ruto si leapfrog. Just organic growth.

Kenya is about to leapfrog.
RV are online shuttles visible around CBD? Little, Taxify, etc. I know Mavoko is backwater despite SGR but they would be prying Lavington or Runda such routes.
