@theutdcode "my efforts to get him interested have not succeeded, he's hesitating, he thinks he can have his nomination served to him on a platter, that's not politics, you've to to make the struggle"
@kinjeketile@Seid101@KillaLando Going by the Nigerian refinery, Lamu refinery will produce 1m MT pa of LPG. Just about enough to meet projected LPG demand in 2031 (2025 LPG demand is 500k MT growing at 15%pa). Taifa Gas will be the primary competitor
@kinjeketile@TangoFox_@KillaLando@EricKigada@akams_@mucheke Toll Lamu-Kitui rd like Riroi-Mau Summit rd & no public money spent. More than enough traffic on congested Msa/Nbi corridor will shift. Prefer Kitui cos it connects to 7 existing corridors (Machakos/Ruai/Thika/Makutano/Embu/Garissa/Kibwezi)
@kinjeketile@TangoFox_@KillaLando@EricKigada@akams_@mucheke Dual carriage road from Kitui to Lamu is the priority. 1) Evacuates Lamu port to Nbi, the biggest cargo mkt in the region 2) De-congests Msa port & the Nbi-Msa corridor 3) activates Lappset with Kitui as pivot thru Thika Rd/Nyeri/Isiolo
@theutdcode The man left GDP per capita exactly where he found it. At the time of his exit, Tz had a higher aggregate GDP; after Tz made a hard right with the economic reforms & liberalisation by Mzee Rukhsa & Mkapa
@theutdcode Nyerere bankrupted Tz thru the Arusha declaration; but tipping point was support for Obote in 79 Ug war; demolished his intellectual ivory tower as Tz faced rationing due to war + 4 yr border closure with Ke. Coup attempt was consequence & he quit 2yrs later admitting defeat
@theutdcode James Orengo, current gvnr Siaya , first elected MP in 1979. Exiled into Tz after '82 coup. Exchanged by Kenya for TZ soldiers who attempted Dar coup of 83. Detained without trial. Ran for Prez in 2002. Minister in '08-13; Senator '13-'22
@onsy_xx@SamTheSeed Kuria was a district which like others (Thika/Nyando/ /Buret/Mwingi/Malindi/Teso etc) were annulled by High Court for not following the legal process of creation. As such, we reverted to the 41 districts at Independence + the 6 others legally created
@komu_wairagu@komu_wairagu The Interest Rate Control Act came into force in 2016 - which mispriced risk in the banking sector & misallocated capital to gov't while starving private sector of capital. We are yet to recover.
@JustEvansK@kinjeketile@EricKigada Railway forget for now - too expensive. Pipeline - has no effect on infra/people along the route. Road is the economical way to get maximum benefit & justify rail in 10/15yrs.
