yeh africa for europeans seems to be a place where my friends go 1tiems in their loves to take pics of gorillas in remote mountains,.u got to loook at some of the australian policys with the aboriginal people,.u got to attract low cost tourist in their millions form europe,.but while you got beach boys or taxi drivers tormenting tourists you will not get more business,.hotels in kenya are too expensive,.
The economic growth model we have adopted has encouraged growth in Nairobi rather than building infrastructure in the rural area such as electricity and roads to attract investors to the rural area to create jobs. We have also neglected agriculture so people are moving to Nairobi to find jobs as watchmen, matatu drivers and househelps. We need to create incentives in the rural area.
@drsugarcane so if farmers in the slums were give plots in other areas that would be a startm,u know in europe we are told for ever10 $ we give to poor in kenya the poor only recieve 1$ mit al dissiappear to corruption,.so a few different national policys of decentralising operated by community board with no politicians will be a start,,, i mean community councils,,,,,
at some stage mansions were bull dozed to give to way a hypothetical by pass no political support because the rich dont need money to voe for you.
when kpc asked sinai residents to vacate...Ndolo shamelessly incited his people,this was strategic for Ndolo to ensure he gets votes from the poor for "fighting for them"
On the issue of slums its one area where kenya could use a dictator to bring sanity on strict no build areas & waste disposal.Nairobi needs such a dictator to enforce building codes.
You dont need a dictator for people to follow rules, you need a president who will not take nonsense or allow corruption. If this idea can trickle down to the wanainchi then things would improve.
The so called 'poor' don't want good change. They fight anybody that comes out to do development - they physically attack them chanting 'Haki Yetu'.
All it takes is to have some jua kali minded civic leader like Waititu, Sonko & Ndolo - this has made it difficult to change Nairobi slums.
It was headache moving Kibera resident to put up the highrises. Infact some Kibera residents got so used to the squalor of slums they feel uneasy in stone building.
1. Politicians aka govt should encourage decentralization- not having everything in Nairobi. If the only jobs are in Nairobi, people flock there.
2, the politicians/govt should demarcate where houses can be built and where they cant. Safety is a priority.
3. Politicians should encourage people to follow the law, whether it means good news or not. You CANNOT break the law. Period. If the law says move, MOVE!
4. Govt should provide water, sewer, roads. Its their job!
@suirvale politicians are to blame coz they are stealing ALL the money meant for maendeleo!
Politicians cannot be driving in Mercedes, Passat, while wanainchi dont have water, toilets etc Sell those cars, reduce number of ministers, plus reduce MP & minister salary and use that money for piped water to the slums.
