Shma2020: After uhuru's realization of pinnacle postponement. He decided to surprise Kenyans with other huge tower. The spike in competition btwn westlands and upperhill is now uncontrollable.
Ugatuzi tower will be the tallest tower in africa after completion(less or more taller than iconic tower in Egypt ) , this tower will cost 5 billion.
Samorobo aka Vlain. You can air your opinion here.
I think Nairobi constructions and developments are unparalleled in sub Sahara africa unless one proves me otherwise,competition of skyscrapers have now roped in government putting such an iconic building. This is a bench mark,many more will strive to out do this building sooner or later.If anyone watches Wode maya video when he was in Nai,listen to his comments on Nairobi infrastructure.
Kazikazi: Do u believe on that kibera talk? Just ask your kibera fellow,what will KQ haul from Johannesburg to Maputo and mind you it takes 4 hours driving from Maputo to Jo'burg
Tayser: KQ Cargo begins operating directly from their Johannesburg hub to Maputo, Harare, Lilongwe, Lusaka and Dar-es-salaam. Very bad news for Tanzania cargo, if such exists Before now, all cargo departing SA had to pass via Nairobi before being rerouted to the above-mentioned nations.
Big boost to KQ,it's also fly direct from Mombasa to middle east with cargo now
THE EVER RISING NAIROBI. Govt Starts Construction of Another Elevated Road in Nairobi By DERRICK OKUBASU on 26 November 2020 - 12:37 pm
The government has kicked off a process of constructing two other elevated carriageways in Nairobi to be done concurrently with the Nairobi Expressway.
In a statement on Wednesday, November 25, Kenya Urban Roads Authority disclosed that the new carriageway will be constructed at Valley Road/Kenyatta Avenue; Ngong/Nyerere Road interchange and Upper Hill/Haille Selassie overpass.
The overpasses are aimed at linking Ngong Road to the Central Business District (CBD).
Kenya Urban Road Authority (KURA) resident engineer Benjamin Asin noted that the initial phase of relocating existing service infrastructure was already ongoing.
“The elevated carriage ways are two, one from Integrity Centre to Serena (Hotel) and another on the Milimani Close,” Asin told People Daily.
He also revealed that the project was valued at Ksh2.9 billion and its construction was slated to begin in early 2021 and end in 2023.
“The value of the project is Sh2.9 billion. The works should begin sometime next year.
"At the moment, we are doing preparatory works that involve the relocation of works planning and geotechnical investigations,” he added.
He also noted that the design was strategic such that the carriageways, would approach the Nairobi Expressway, which is slated to be completed in 2022, at lower levels and into the CBD through Haile Selassie and Kenyatta Avenues.
“There will be no connection because that one is for traffic that are going express so we do not want to mix, so as traffic approaches the Expressway, it will go down and into the city,” he explained.
Another source from KURA confirmed that the project was independent of the Nairobi Expressway and would affect Ngong Road mostly.
A different contractor, the China Road and Bridge Corporation-Kenya is expected to undertake the project which will include KURA overseers.
No buildings will be pulled down during the construction of the project save for strips of land owned by All Saints Cathedral, the Milimani Commercial Court and others along Nyerere Road.

Kazikazi: Even starvations is also a global thing.But are we supposed to fold our hands and starve to death like Turkana fellows in Kenya?
Give us relevant info, ,turkana now produce enough food under irrigation managed by the government,they have surplus for sale.Show me latest report from turkana. If you bank on Turkana for your case study,you are doomed.
gallivant: That guy is a retard. We will keep on commisioning geothermal power plants while the laggards stake their future on fossil fuels. Stockholm syndrome is hard to kick.
Kazikazi: Son, Its impossible to pump liquified gas through a pipeline.What we pump in pipelines is unliquefied gas.This unliquified gas can't be transported through a port. Kenya don't use much gas currently, but the demand will shoot up once a cheaper gas from TZ arrives through a pipeline.You will use the gas.... 1. for power generation just the way Tz does
2.powering your manufacturing plants just the same way like Tz by using piped gas connected into factories
3.You will connect homes and other institutions with piped gas just the same way like TZ
.Your women won't use charcoal anymore.They will have a white sparkling eyes since they won't use smoking firewoods which causes eyes to be red.You will finally be advanced like Big boy TZ
Unfortunately your gas is impure,that's why Kenya doesn't import.Your gas is a big risk coz it has no additive which gives gases that pungent smell for leak detection.
gallivant: You cant afford to pay your civil servants what we pay ours. Your currency is not worth the paper its printed on. Anyway, post Tanzanian pictures in the Tanzanian thread.
@Gallivant,help this guy out,he thinks the word print in this case refers to physical printing of money,...oh my.in layman's language it means CBK giving overdraft to ex chequer/government.
Kazikazi: Why can't your nation help them too? How many times should TZ help these African nations? We helped Mozambique in the past. We helped South Africa in their apertheid era We helped Angola We helped comoroes We helped Namibia We helped Zimbabwe We helped syschelles We helped Uganda We helped Burundi We helped Rwanda We helped and still helping DRC We helped Kenya
But now they forgot us,some they are here badmouthing us,and putting up stupid propagandas against TZ!
Shma2020: Some Kenyans have accepted that Kenya is far behind nigeria and they have cling to other group not realizing how the mighty baboon is controlling that group with ego and ignorance. You should left that group to die. #tylann #gallivant #sadommjaka.
