@Sincero_Dinero People don't know how to.merge.

@OlindPaul "Older version" is the operative phrase. Harare still retains some of the charm we lost.

@ivymuthe Open drains where people walk is poor design.

[Michael Kihato @MichaelKihato]

@LathaPhilani @AfricaFirsts Depends on where. Many very good places, much better than what you would get anywhere in Accra or Nairobi.

[Michael Kihato @MichaelKihato]

@AfricaFirsts Johannesburg, great city but too much crime. Also, services were very good but have deteriorated substantially.

Nairobi, awful. Poor infrastructure, little water, power blackouts, traffic. No open spaces. Ugly.

Kigali, just not interesting.

Go with Jozi despite all.

@amenya_nelson His truly talking nonsense.

@calvinokello4 There is a Commuter Rail Master Plan 2019 for the metropolitan region financed by the World Bank. Never been implemented, surprise.

@zazaxbtt Had one ...lasted me years. Loved it.

@mauakanja @__JasonMarshall Wueh. You hate the truth.

[Michael Kihato @MichaelKihato]

@Alfayaz11 True. The biggest challenge to long term sustainability to whatever we manage to deliver for affordable housing will be management and service fees. They will likely end up as high rise ghettos.

@MativoMJohn Footbridges don't work. And if the system is as dysfunctional and corrupt as we know it is, it cannot be 'encouraged" to be otherwise.

[Michael Kihato @MichaelKihato]

@denniskioko It has nothing to do with the size of the city. It's demand driven and based on what type of corridor we have.

@IanECox Oh my word. Who would have thought. I actually follow both closely and admire their scholarship. Don't always agree, but can't help myself.

[Michael Kihato @MichaelKihato]

@krazygb @KURAroads @KeNHAKenya @NelsonHavi Agree. I live around there. They have not solved the problem - riparian land grabbing. Houses have been built on top of the 'brook' and in heavy rain, the water spills over to the road. Someone needs to bite that bullet.

@contentcowboy Brixton, Mayfair, Newlands???

[Russell Pollitt @rpollittsj]

The mayor telling residents to use water sparingly while it pours out on streets all over though leaking pipes! This is lunacy and so immoral. He should GO.

[Rod MacPhail @rodcampsbay]

South Africa has some good points. The climate is great. The diversity of nature and animals is breathtaking. Camps Bay beach is world class. The winelands are beautiful.

I can criticise the President without fear of arrest. The LGBTQ minorities are free from official interference. We don’t have a secret police force.

Most of all I like the wonderful South African people who I interact with on a daily basis. My experience of my fellow citizens is that neither racial differences nor religious differences nor wealth differences nor age differences are important.

We get along very well together. Thank you.

@IanECox I agree, Lusaka looks good in many places. Reminds me of the Nairobi of the 80's where I grew up. Watch out though, when the slide starts, then it is a very slippery slope.

What is the longest straight line you can walk without going over water?
