Kenya has had two inflection point - 2005 is when economy took big turn for the better - it almost hard to reverse that growth trajectory - it will take gigantic mess. Kenya also with Cok2010 made big turn for better legally and politically speaking - it almost now impossible to reverse those political gains - the Cok2010 is sum of all lessons we had learnt in 50yrs and where we do not want to go. Yesterday rulling is important because no future politician will ever attempt to change the constitution without a very thorough process.

Let them play their politics but leave constitution alone, the independent judiciary and other institutions are going to become more embolden to protect public interest.We still have big problem with police - they are supposed to be independent - and reformed - but they remain ever corrupt.

I knew Uhunye would get nowhere and I REALLY hope he pays for wasting gov resources to shoehorn his cohorts into permanent POLITICAL relevance to safeguard his family's ill gotten gains. Fk that self centred nigga!?
I hope he's watching Zuma's fate. I still maintain though he's a political prisoner of the Anglo Jews!

The day 4 of World Althetic Under 20 championship in Nairobi - with 100 plus countries participating. Like I said Nairobi is likely to be first city to host olympics in Africa.

Joke of the century Ur sporting infrastructure is the worst on this thread. A joke for lack of a better word.

Hosting a sport or a large events is more than a fancy stadium. That we can build in a year or two if there is justification. There are more important things - right from hotel and accomodation, road infrastructure, security, airport and many such facilities. Kenya has increasingly proven it can host world events. Both sports and big international conferences.

Why would Nairobi host Olympics soon. It simple. It already one of biggest global and modern cities - and going by it's growth trajectory will probably be biggest city in Sub-Sahara (infrastructure/real estate wise) in 10yrs overtaking Joburg. Nairobi has pretty much most of elements to support a big event..

And we will be given 5-10yrs to build fancy stadiums.

You cannot start from fancy stadium - and like ASABA thing - althetes get stuck in Lagos airport for a week.

Nigeria you totally embrassed yourselves

@ first bolded. So what’s stopping u from building one.just shut it,u can’t afford one except you sell ur soul and that’s of your generation to either Chinese or more recently JAPANESE.


@second bolded,get of your high horse this city that o just watched doesn’t ha e an ounce of modernity.u have to be blind or stupid to believe otherwise. It looks mediocre African,Pakistan,third world.

What is justification for building huge sport stadiums that will be empty 90 percent of the time. Right now every county is building their own medium size sport stadium...so about 47 will soon be ready.

If we are host olympics that will bring say 1B dollars - yes we can then justify investing in modern stadiums.

To invest billion dollars for CRAP AFRICA UNION FOOTBALL that will not even bring 100m dollars is crazy.

Your opinion on Nairobi is irrelevant compared to JLL or KnightFrank.

And Nairobi has already hosted world events - Nigeria cannot..

Sport in Kenya is a county (state in Nigeria) function. And every county is now building their own stadiums. They will be 47 stadium. Medium sized stadiums that can host county level function - not 100,000 capacity stadium in the middle of a bush like ASABA

There are many stadiums built in the last 5yrs.

Example- Kinoru stadium - Meru county - just completed.

It’s simple.u can’t build a de ent sport facility cos u can’t afford one. They are so many countries in Europe and Asia that has never hosted Olympic or any serious global sporting activities yet they all ha e ultra modern sport facilities. So be gone with this excuse already.

And as for Nairobi,watch again cos I doubt you watched this video else the word modern wouldn’t even hit ur thought talk more of emanating from ur mouth. U will have to edit or go under filters to be taken seriously.

Day 3 of World Althetic under 20 in Nairobi Kenya

Empty Stadium everyday.
No much euphoria about this tournament and that goes to tell you how low this tournament is.

Just one empty stadium and a few facilities then you are good to go.

Even Togo can host it back to back.

No highly rated tournament will be hosted in such a stadium. Man, your stadium is an eyesore period.

It's COVID-19. Wake up. Nobody is allowed in the stadium.

Nairobi's Kasarani hosted World Under 18 four years ago- and stadium overflowed - many were sent home. A record crowd for IAAF.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qV2fsMYs-1M

Kenya Shattered its own record of the biggest attendance at an IAAF World Under 18 and Under 20 Championships in a day. The final day on Sunday saw the 60,000 seater stadium full to capacity. So big was the crowd that tens of thousands more were turned away by security officers. The cheers were felt far and wide, an here are some of the reactions from competitors and organizers.

IAAF is not aware - and has hosted world events in Kenya. Many other sport association have also hosted big events in kenya. We will not spend money to build empty tombs

Nobody is talking about fanciful stadium here. At least the stadium should look decent. It should be standard.

Seat-less stadiums like yours should be banned from hosting any tournament including High School Games

Yet as we speak IAAF is hosting a world event - something that wont happen in your lifetime in Ghana - with 100 countries plus participating

This 2nd world event in 4yrs

Wait for next Africa Cup of Nation -

Excuse upon excuse. Even European countries allow spectators in their stadiums.

Europe is not kenya. It all depends on many factors.

Track and field sports aren't a big deal in Ghana. We need to invest more in that area (athletes) before thinking of hosting such events.

But when it comes to Hosting tournaments in glam and style! Kenya has a lot to learn from Ghana.

You're just bitter because kenya is hosting a worldwide event with single stadium whilst your country with all those football stadiums don't. This alone should should tell a lot .
