Ready For The New Africa; Kenya Launches The Standard Gauge Railway by Womenrep(op): 12:08am On Jun 03, 2017
The president of Kenya officially opened the Standard Gauge Railway, a project that commenced in 2013.
This is said to boost their economy as the train which goes at a speed of 120km/h is faster thus lessening the 10 hour journey to 5hours.
The passengers will be charged 700, which is 7dollars,as opposed to the bus price of 1200. Their dollar to shillings is (1dollar-100 Kenya shillings).
The transportation of containers from Mombasa to Nairobi will also be half the normal price.
Africa is a land of opportunities, good leadership is all it takes and our grass will be as much green.
Let's make Africa great.
