@EricKigada I did say revenue, not profit (less than 30% of rail investment has a positive ROI, anywhere in the world) As for Freight, the rail has to reach deep in DRC, serve 4-5 EAC countries to make profit. Uganda would be a good start.

@consultSC3 Trains never run a profit on passenger service alone. It's cargo that is profitable. How many containers of tea are exported every day? We have never been self-sufficient in fish supply in Kenya.
The metre gauge railway passes through those areas & it's not used.

No matter what every Kenyan thinks about SGR. As long as it does not connect to Uganda it is not viable.
It has been connected to Naivasha for 7 years & no one has used it to export items. How will it be different in other regions?
Ng'etich@_feloh_
You don’t build SGR and leave out one of your most consistent export regions. The SGR may connect cities, but it fails to connect production.

@AmbokoJH @kinjeketile An interesting twist is that this ruling can and will make @SafaricomPLC hide the phone numbers of people you send money to or receive from.

UPDATE: Kenya's High Court declares that registered
mobile phone number constitutes a digital identifier linking personal data that relates to an individual’s private affairs hence qualifies for protection under Article 31 (c) & (d) of the Constitution to safeguard the right not have information relating to private affairs
unnecessarily required or disclosed.
This declaration by the High Court follows a petition challenging the reassignment &/or recycling of the deactivated but previously registered mobile telephone numbers owing to extended period of inactivity or non-use.
The High Court has now given the Office of the Attorney General 6 months to take all necessary and appropriate measures to safeguard digital identity associated with the registered mobile telephone number against unfettered deactivation, and subsequent arbitrary reassignment or recycling.
The High Court rules that reassignment of cell phone numbers should happen only when/if:
1. There is the previous registered owner’s informed & verifiable consent
2. After expiry of reasonable period following issuance of public notice which must be preceded by through documented verification process aimed at confirming the original registered owner cannot be located or has unequivocally revoked the rights to the number
3. Technical safeguards be put in place and implemented to prevent unauthorized exposure or transfer of personal data linked to previous registered owner to 3rd Parties upon reassignment or recycling of the number

A petition has been filed at the High Court challenging the reassignment &/or recycling of the deactivated but previously registered mobile telephone numbers owing to extended period of inactivity or non-use. The petitioner argues that those numbers constitute an individual’s digital identity that provides linkage to delicate personal information of which substantial risk of exposure to 3rd Parties is created by their unfettered reassignment. The petitioner wants a declaration that there exists a personal digital identity & a person's registered phone number forms part of his/her digital identity just like the physical national ID., Passport or Driving license.

Why can't SADC countries come together and build an Oil Refinery Plant in Angola and build pipe lines that service all these countries instead of spending millions of dollars buying fuel in the Middle East What stops Africans from doing this?.

@Safaricom_Care You want me to believe I used up 10 GB in 10 minutes really?
Your days are numbered with this level of thuggery.
I can’t acess the data manager without your data, I have WiFi but won’t work on it as you can see in the message below.
English
@Safaricom_Care is there a reason or any possibility one can use up 10 GB in in 10 minutes? I called customer care and I was informed my data was used up. It’s never happened in all the years I have used my lines.
What’s really going on lately with your billing?
Your data experience has become extremely expensive and extremely unsatisfactory.

The Eastern bypass exit from Mombasa road ( Nairobi bound ) needs to be rethought. Too much traffic.

@xysist @SurveyorOfKenya At 1500 per passenger, for 7pass max calculate whether the vehicle is worth investing in
English
@SurveyorOfKenya Assume 10km/l 360km is 36 litres so at a rate of 182/l we looking at 6552. So a budget of Ksh 7000 works
Would put aside 10k worst case scenario

How much, for fuel, would one need to drive from NAIROBI to KISUMU;

I was today years old when I realized “Roho safi” means clean spirit, not clean heart. This is because ‘Holy spirit’ in Kiswahili translates to “Roho mtakatifu”.
From henceforth, when I say something from a “Clean heart” I will be adding “Moyo Safi”…. IDC.

The govt was misadvised on traffic instant fines. Kenya can learn from some USA states. Kenya should (1) amend traffic Act to make violations civil not criminal (2) Provide for fair process to challenge fines (3) Conduct proper public participation. @ntsa_kenya @CJMarthaKoome

#hotoffthebench Justice Bahati Mwamuye has issued an interim conservatory order restraining NTSA and others from implementing the Instant Fines Traffic Management System(an automated/algorithmic decision making system) which enforced instant traffic penalties.

To those who think that appeasing a cruel leader would make him stand down , this is what Winston Churchill had to say many years back, ‘ ..appeasement is like feeding a crocodile hoping you will be the last to be eaten..’ We are at a crucible moment and the tyrant MUST BE DEFEATED. Not appeased.

@MwangoCapital @DavidNdii Just look at the operating profit (mostly loss) over the years, why would Aga Khan sustain that business? Why would Azim buy a loss making entity? He will sell the real estate, and downsize it to make it a digital only business
English
It is somewhat disingenuous for @DavidNdii to suggest that investor interest in Nation Media Group is purely about land.
If the real value sat in the land, are we to assume the Aga Khan Fund for Economic Development failed to recognise it before agreeing to sell its stake to Rostam Azizi? More importantly, the transaction price has not even been disclosed, so there is no basis to claim the assets were not properly valued or that the land was ignored in the deal.
If the thesis were simply land speculation, Nairobi has plenty of prime buroti maguta maguta available. Acquiring a controlling stake in a major media house points to interest in the platform, reach, and strategic influence, not just the underlying real estate.
