Some temporary businesses Kenyans can venture into ahead of AFCON 2027 from my experience:
1. Transport- Taxis, boda, luxury cars, buses:
People are always on the move during the tournament. In Abidjan, I spent at least Ksh1500 per day on Uber and sometimes boda. Bodas will always be the fastest mean to get to and out of the stadium. VIPs tend to hire luxury cars for moving around
2. Accommodation- hotels, Airbnb, hosting:
This is the most challenging bit to the fans/journalists attending. Accommodation is never enough as demand is higher than the supply. If you can host, turn a house into an Airbnb or have a hotel you’ll make some cash.
3. Fast food and street food
Fans will want to grab something before and after the game. Usually, the food at the stadium may be slightly expensive for the attending fans so they will go for a quick sandwich, smocha, or smokie pasua. Street food at night sells like hot cake as fans want something to hold their stomach until morning.
4. . Open social areas
Whenever a country is hosting a big tournament, everyone is carried away by the atmosphere and feel of the tournament. Due to this everyone will be looking for a match ticket but only 50,000 can get to a stadium like Kasarani. This leaves a chance for something called- a fan park or fan zone. Football fans not attending a match at the stadium will look for an open space area to catch the game with other fans. They prefer big open places as they feel safe, can throw stuff and run around. For towns like Mombasa, Kisumu, and other places in Nairobi that will not host the matches in 2027, business owners can come up with fanzones and set up big screens to make a few coins.
5. Football kits
Every fan will want to don his favorite team’s kit whether on the way to the stadium, fan park or just watching at home. Host team kits sell like smokies at 4am outside BnD. These kits run out in the first few weeks and demand increases as the team progresses. I remember I carried a few for my friends when I was going to Qatar for the World Cup because they were not only expensive over there but also rare to find. On the eve of Nigeria vs Ivory Coast this year, I unsuccessfully tried to purchase a Nigerian kit in Abidjan.
6. Translators
English, French, Arabic, and Portuguese dominate the African football sphere. Organizations like CAF will hire translators for press conferences and stadium activities. Teams and individuals can also hire different translators depending on needs. If you are already studying one of those languages keep going as there could be an opportunity for you soon.
7. Nightlife
Football fans don’t sleep. Clubs and social places will make a killing. They want to party till morning, watch football, and repeat.
8. Shopping and local markets
During their free time, AFCON fans like sampling local markets to buy something to take back to their country. During my free days in Abidjan, I explored the beaches, and local markets to buy some cool t-shirts and food. People want to take back something that will remind them of the tournament. Condoms also sell (I’m told).
9. Etc

A year ago, I was gonna be the senator of my people at EMC. Today, I was another ordinary citizen- in fact so ordinary I didn’t make the cut to speak to the people of Metkei. I greeted and shook hands with as many people as I could. I didn’t take a single photo of me. And yet I loved the place I am today as I loved the place I stood to have last year when I could have been the Senator. I gave out my small contribution and went to sit down, happy to be part of a group of people I love and I know loved me. In fact I am full of gratitude - for the great work today and for exactly the place we are. And where I am.
Don’t take yourself so seriously. Do your best today. Love fiercely. Do your best for those in your care. Be of service. Shape today. For there is tomorrow. #itesait
