The construction sector contributed Sh169 billion to Kenya’s gross domestic product in the third quarter of 2020, the highest in any quarter since 2015.

“The growth (in the construction sector) was evidenced in the volume of cement consumed, which increased by 23.5 per cent from 1.6 million metric tonnes in the third quarter of 2019 to 1.9 million metric tonnes in the review period,” said the report.

Kenyans are on proud of Nairobi. Mean while Kaduna city be giving them headache.

Nairobi construction everywhere. Btw kenya cement consumption has now recovered from 2015 slump - last Q - 1.9m - meaning we could close the year close to 8M metric tonnes

To compare Nairobi with any west african slumpolis is abuse of our intelligence

Ohh Really, Abuja and Calabar are probably the greenest cities in Africa, but from my videos , one could tell what cities looks better, u now see why we say Nigeria cities are far more Developed than kenya, if your best area(west land) looks this horrible and can not even come close yola, adamawa state(North East Nigeria) which happens to be among the poorest in Nigeria, how then would mombasa, Juja, Kitengela, Thika or even Karen be compared with owerri not even uyo.
RVP, are u really ok upstair?

Nairobi was named 11th eco friendly city in the entire globe...jesus..Cape town was no 45.Nairobi is one world greatest cities.just accept and move on.calabar or Nigeria have one or two half decent estate in sea of integrated slumpolis .Nairobi by 2030 will have overtaken joburg as the premier city of Africa ..if not earlier. Your slumpolis should try basic zoning and planning...basic..

Spintex district in accra looks far more Developed than this crappy area called Westland, most roads in Westland are tiny, Dusty, ugly, with no road markings, no street and traffic lights

rural markets in kenya have street lights..westland an acre of land is 5_10m dollars. Kojoa ulale oga.Westland is crappy yet has some world most expensive real estate. People dont just build skyscrapers...land is so expensive it only make sense to build up

gallivant:
That's how you know you have defeated a West African.

precisely

Why are you embittered and frustrated.
Why would you go for street view when you have drone views?
You have a problem with reality or what?
Let me tell in Kenya - street view - will not show you much - because we invest in trees, hedges and greenery.
Unless you want to see street view of the business districts.
Otherwise estates in kenya are lined with too much trees and high school - you'll not see much.

Madman, I could show thousands of such estates across Nigeria from Maiduguri to Lagos.
I only asked u to show me a road trip(not a drone shots of estates), I mean street virews from kiambu, Runda or any other parts of Nairobi outside the the tiny CBD, can u please?

Nairobi North Collector - Phase 1 - adding 140k cubic meter per day - ready to be consumed this quarter.

With longest tunnel in kenya - 12KMS - LONG


https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qnK0aFyi3X4

Algeria with about the same or less oil than NIgeria'

See the university - Nigeria oil could have done the same


https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=O2mVxBW9rtg&feature=emb_logo

Indeed Nairobi is water deficient because Nairobi and it's metro has grown so fast.
Nairobi north collector is nearing completion.
Saisuma dam is near completion.

Here is Nairobi North Water Collector project - Phase 1 - will ADD 140M litres per day to NAIROBI

Nairobi requires 825K cubic meters per day - and Nairobi right now get supplied with 500K cubic meters - and north collector (will take it 640K cubic meters per day) and others will fill the gap.


https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EsV0_t70Tpo

There are other dams around Nairobi metro.

Just30:
so answer why kenya has been in a water supply crisis for the past 10 years and no solution?

See I told you - you can only compete with Kitengela.
Now you're bringing your A-game.

And when we bring the rundas, karens - that occupy more than half of Nairobi landmass.

That will be too much for you of course. Those ones are word class developed world standards.

Let try Kiambu - which is 20kms from Nairobi city center - in Nairobi Metro - it's just need a little more of horizontal infrastructure - and it becomes another runda

These vloggers are damn too funny, they starts by showing a driver from either Nairobi or thika highways , getting closer to this slummy areas calls Kitengela,Rongai, Kikuyu,Juja,Thika they then fly drones showing some tiny nice estates in a repeated way while avoiding the inner streetd.
Is it hard to show us the inner street views of Thika,Juja, Kitengela without without the drone shots of some small estates mostly occupied by muhindi,whites and few fortunate Kenyans?
Bellow are street drives around Abuja(inner city drives not drone shots of few nice estates).

[b]Rvp, let me be sincere with u, No, I no city in East Africa(not even Kenya) can come close to Abuja in terms of development, [/b]Abuja is far more Developed that than most cities in Africa

Street view tended to be careful selected. Give me drone view.

I know you're pushing the inane idea that Nairobi city is small - without relent

This Nairobi Metro - 20kms-30kms - towards Thika

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tP0vtmc-GVk&t=275s

Nairobi 40kms away from CBD - thika town (city really) - is jointed with Nairobi - just like Kitengela, Ngong, Rongai, kikuyu, kiambu etc

Nigga, let start with Kitengela,I mean show me road trips ( street drive of Kitengela), those are estates and the worst areas in Nigeria also got very great estates.
Bellow is the street view of Yola, Adamawa state( second poorest state in Nigeria),u can u please show us something like that in Kitengela,Thika,or any other areas in Nairobi and Nairobi metro outside the usual the tiny Nairobi and it's adjoining areas?

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oc778g0y-_w

Those are like Rongai or Kitengela - the rest are integrated slums.

Heck even Kitengela or random Nairobi Metro -look better

Mad man, what about ikoyi,lekki,Ikeja,Lagos island , Banana Island and surulere, in Abuja, Gwarimpa, Wuse,Jabi,Utako,Asokoro, lifecamp,Gariki,Apo... are what?

Kenya is constructing many mega dams.
Karimenu - Kiambu - to supply 700,000 people

You don't know anything. Kenya had functioning railway long before any chinese. Then it fell into bankruptcy and disrepair. World Bank told us to concession - and they went and picked a South African farmer - to run it for 25yrs!!! Later it turn out the man was broke and knew nothing about running railways. Kenya and Uganda had fell line, hook and sinker thinking he was part of the impressive south africa's railway industry.

We had to build a new railway alongside it - as the deal involved Uganda. That is how Chinese came in. Chinese built the new rail.

Eventually Uganda agreed, and wee kicked out the boer - and now have old MGR - and are repairing and buying DMUS

This is Nairobi in 1950s

Appisko:
The Chinese owned and operated railway

Kenya Railway rehab - being done by National Youth Service and Army mostly

Kenya infrastructure
1) NCR - Nairobi commuter Rail
2) SGR - direct to port - ship - loads directly

This in addition to our very good downstream oil pipeline.

Kenya railway servies, ports, and entire infrastructure is back - to kicking - big arse.

After kicking out the broke boer - who committed the biggest international heist - on Kenya and uganda - our railway services are now back

The Kenya MGR that had fallen to disrepair is now being repaired and extended. Some South Africa broke boer had lied to Kenya-Uganda and got concession for 25yrs of the railway. The broke RVR couldn't even paint the train. The world bank's IFC was the financial arranger and had failed completely to do their job

Anyway now that South African was eventually kicked out - we are back to MGR

1) Nanyuki-Nairobi - is done and operational
2) Kisumu-Nakuru - under rehabilitation
3) Naivasha - Longonot - connecting SGR with MGR under constrution

Nairobi commuter rail - with BRT connection to JKIA

Konza technopolis - Nairobi train

Today is a very exciting day as we take the first Nairobi - Konza Technopolis train, this will further enhance transportation options and open up the Technopolis and the buffer zone area for further investments

Some somersault; your ministry talk about revenues; that domestic revenue from manufacturers. You're just un-educated.

Try compete with Ivory Coast before you come to Kenya level

weep

I even underestimate our exports



This is not kenya where all the drugs on your market comes through import

Local manufacturing today accounts for 45% of the drugs on the Ghanaian market

Domestically maybe. Export zeros. Imports still 70%.

Just30:
The Minister of Trade and Industry, Mr. Alan JohnKyerematen has revealed that Ghana gains much revenue that amounts to 400 million dollars from the pharmaceutical manufacturing industry.


The pharmaceutical industry has positioned Ghana to play a key roll in driving and accelerating pharmaceutical growth in Africa. The government’s pharmaceutical sector serves over 350 million people within the community of West African states.

of 1600 - how many are convenient corner stores.

Shoprite consists of 380 Shoprite supermarkets;
132 Checkers supermarkets;
24 Checkers Hypers;
148 Usave stores
20 distribution centres supplying group stores with groceries, non-foods and perishable lines;

Austine1213:
Shoprite has over 1600 shops for the the 6 that closed in Kenya 30 more opened around Africa, lol

They went bankrupt because of governance issues. The formal retail in kenya is super profitable. The Naivas/Nakumatt/Tuskys/ name them - were small shops a decade or so ago. Most of owners don't know how to run large chains.

These are family owned business - that got into frenzy growth - as kenya retail is formalizing very fast.

As for shoprite - what excsue does it have - to have burnt their capital in Nairobi

Austine1213:
Lol they all went bankrupt with combined 200 shops

And yet you celebrate shoprite leaving while it had less than 6 shops it shows hypocricy
