Shma: A skyscraper is any building above 150m. Durban has zero skyscrapers. Only Joburg will have a say in Nairobi.
You need to reduce ego and learn, shack man.
Develop your zoo so you can have that ego. C’mon Nairobi stretch of road and you’ve been trying to be egotistical about it if not that some of us consider it a mediocre joke that all over Africa.
who told u TZ electrified high speed railway is 2nd class while your diesel powered slow railway is first class? wonders shall never end. And mind you,the same Chinese company which built kenyan sgr it's the same company which built tanzania's TAZARA railway about 50 years ago. In actual sense,your railway looks like tanzanias TAZARA but not like our new speedy electrified sgr.
Please post that Tamara rail let me mock Kenya and show them the semblance
tylann: Then why do you want to cry You're so emotional and pained for nothing Ethiopia is one of the poorest countries in East Africa your emotions won't change that
That goes to show that your economy is cooked. A single look at Ethiopia and you can see what their economy has done no matter how little it maybe,o can’t say the same for your zoo bro. Now please stop I wailing on my mention,I am not the cause of your misery - just vote a more capable idiot this time - maybe ruto or odinga whatever.
Shma: You seem bamboozled because you think light rails are more expensive & superior to SGRS, but I don't blame you.
Kenya's SGR is 1st class - Ethiopia and TZ are building 2nd class.
Back to your Ethiopian light rail:
"Review by the Office of the Auditor General found that, during its first four years, the system took in $11.1 million but cost $154 million to operate.
“The feasibility study has been inadequate, and it was conducted without collecting enough information,” the auditor general analysis stated. “This, coupled with the absence of a maintenance center to fix the trains that need repair and other factors, have contributed to the losses sustained by the light railway.”
The light rail transit (LRT) is part of a list of Chinese-sponsored Belt and Road Initiative projects in Africa that have failed to live up to their Chinese-written feasibility studies and saddled host nations with massive debts.
The Ethiopian Railway Corporation (ERC), which runs Addis Ababa’s LRT system, borrows from the state-owned Commercial Bank of Ethiopia to pay off the $475 million construction loan to the China Export-Import Bank, which financed 85% of the project. The ERC has already paid $2.8 million in fines to the bank for late payments, according to the report.
The system began operating in 2016 with 40 trains, but regularly runs about half that number. Addis Ababa’s deputy mayor noted in 2018 that the city’s electrical grid lacked the capacity to power the system before construction began. Even with its own dedicated power supply, the LRT still experiences outages and delays, leading to packed cars and poor service.
The health care demands related to COVID-19 have forced Ethiopia and countries across Africa to choose between protecting their citizens and paying their debts to China. Because those debts are often through state-supported commercial banks, nations have struggled to get Chinese authorities to provide them with relief.
Ethiopia asked the G20 international forum in January for relief on its government-issued debt, prompting Fitch Ratings to downgrade its credit rating.
Even before the pandemic hit, Ethiopia was seeking relief in 2018 on its Chinese debt. It got some — a 20-year extension on repaying the $4 billion loan to build the Ethiopia-Djibouti Railway, another Chinese project that has come up short of expectations.
Kenya can build them, but how profitable is it for our economy? THINK! don't just argue like a street dunce.
Lmao mumu I never asked you about the cost,profit making I just asked to see Kenya’s light rail which apparently does t exist. You are talking about loss making in Ethiopia light rail,lol your sgr is a loss making Chinese Ponzi scheme,heck even your entire country so don’t throw stone when you live in a glass house hurst show me your light rail and zip it.
When we want to talk sgr,then you can bring forth your Chinese scrap metal. Lol you are even talking about first class sgr with your limited single track.for the records,ours is even better and it double tracked.
There is nothing you want to show me about Nairobi or Kenya in general that I am not aware of. Heck at this point I need some degree on your zoo,I have practically seen it all.So yeah you stop heckling,Addis is ahead.
gallivant: The begging is too much for me. Give this clown Ethiiopian, Algerian, Morrocan or South African citizenship already. He needs time away from generator.
Boring as hell. You are not worth my time stupid. Ethiopia and those other countries you listed are ahead of Kenya. Yes I said what I said,might be painful but I don’t care. Just develop and quit whining.
Shma: Words are not facts. You're entitled to say anything you want, like; Lagos is more developed than Newyork. No one will tell you sh*t. But deep down in your obtuse head, you know it isn't.
So don't waste words with me, zombie.
You are stupid. Based of what I just saw Nairobi has nothing on Addis Ababa. This is a fact cos it’s a naked eye test. Choke on it,it’s not up for argument.
Shma: .....THESE THINGS! I thought your toffee brain got some deliverance.
Anyway, what was the modus operandi for this? Lemme guess. You came up with pictures of skyscrapers, which I counted 8, them BooM! Your puny brain conjectured that the entire glance is development, smh!

Why are you using your @sshole to think, zombie?
Blah de blah. Ethiopia is more advanced than Kenya. I said what I said and I take nothing back. This was not meant to be an argument but hot fact.
gallivant: Am I the one still using generators for power in 2022? At some point you have to take responsibility for Buhari's failures, it's affecting your mental state.
When hit hard you sound even more stupid than I thought you could be .
Boring comeback. Take snapshot of this and stamp it on your wall,then read it as your daily mantra. You need to recognize how stupid you’ve become. Lame ass idiot
Shma: To engage this one, you need to wipe off your brain. He's below the barrel when it comes to logic and thinking. You'll give him an algorithm and he will answer with what his feeling is telling him.
You don’t need logic and thinking to know that Ethiopia is the most advanced country in east Africa. This things are naked eye test. Shove your logic up your stupid ass.
rvp2018: There is almost nothing you can teach us Nigeria. We send engineers to China. But even more than that we had China come to kenya and expand our existing Railway Institute of Training. Now it regional(Africa outside RSA) school of railway engineering.
Kenya Railways Trainining Institute. The Railways Training Institute now has the capacity to train up to 800 Kenyans using the same standards used to train the SGR Kenyan staff who undertook a training exercise in China. The institute has been upgraded at a cost of Ksh1 billion and it now includes modern laboratories and technical workshops that will be crucial in training the people who will work on the SGR.
Look nigga I don’t care if you send them or not,I am just here to mock the substandard infrastructures they are giving you guys and how badly they are failing financially. That’s all.
Lol Kenyans lie to much and raise their shoulders up for nothing.
Lol this is definitely the most developed city in east Africa. This things are naked eye test lol.
When next gtc wants to go high it should steal a page from Addis ananda on how aesthetically beautiful and advanced a skyline should look. Not those hideous tall bland gtc structures with limited acrylic painting ,zero architectural marvel and of course zero aesthetics.
Did I forget to add they have one of the most advanced light rail system In Africa. A look at Addis and you can tell the Chinese did well,but a look at Kenya and you weep cos you can smell hot mandarin Ponzi scheme choking your nostrils.
