My reading of the current happenings in the country is we are sitting on a serious powder keg. People need to be very careful, moreso the leaders. They cant afford to get it wrong twice. The consequences will be dire. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IMgI2IZCTZE&t=176s |

Someone was asking what the numerous airstrips in Kenya are used for. The great aviation guru Sam Chui has a great video https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=p0Q93kHnS1U&t=339s 1 Like |

Before the war in Myanmar, Kenya hosted the two largest refugee camps in the world, Kakuma and Dadaab. They are so big they are effectively among the top 10 largest cities in the country by population with each camp hosting over 250 K people. The total number of registered refugees and asylum seekers in Kenya is over half a million. Compared with the previous years, there is an increase in the total population of refugees, mainly because of new arrivals from South Sudan, Burundi, the Democratic Republic of the Congo, Ethiopia and Somalia. As of 31 January 2023, Dadaab Refugee Camp population stood at 339,108 individuals (70,766 households). Of these, 233,828 individuals (45,338 households) are registered/documented. A total of 105,280 individuals (25,428 households) were profiled awaiting registration by the Department of Refugee Services (DRS). https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ix_EICvHeH4&t=890s https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nyCIAeg1CKU https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iW4SN3e4Uug?si=eEMi50gTtLZziCqV 1 Like

Asianplug: I think everyone is trying in their own way. Dust in many parts of Africa is a result of Sahara and dry conditions, something you wont find in SE Asia with their rainforests and mangroves. But some SE Asian countries are as shytholic as any African country if not worse. Asia as a whole has the rich, middle, and poor countries. Rich include Japan, S. Korea, China, Singapore, Malaysia, middle include Philipines, Indonesia, India and so forth, then the poor are countries like Laos that have become mini-colonies of the Chinese, Burma with the unending ethnic wars, Cambodia after the Khmer Rouge still looks like an apocalyptic super farm. The countries that have failed Africa the most are the ones who were promising in the past, read Nigeria, Ghana, SA, Kenya etc. These are countries that should by now be in the leagues of S. Korea. But they are definitely better than the worst in Asia by far! But there are definitely somewhat success stories in Africa too, countries that rose from the dust so to speak, such as Rwanda after the genocide has put its act together, Botswana has managed to improve itself through proper resource management, Namibia too, and the island nations of Mauritius, Seychelles, and Cape Verde. Africans need to do more though, no doubt.! 2 Likes 2 Shares |

popizaino: That definitely includes small airstrips and private airstrips. National parks in Kenya have lots of those, plus private ranches like Vipingo Golf Course have their own. JKIA & Wilson - Nairobi, Mombasa, Kisumu, Eldoret, Isiolo, and Lamu are the major airports in Kenya. The rest are small airstrips with several in each county.

I think we finally have a video that aptly covers the world-class amenities at Konza Technopolis. The laying of horizontal infrastructure is finally done at this Smart City - smartest in Africa. Some of the advanced features shown in this excellent video include; automatic waste management through vending machines (street garbage is automatically sucked into a tunnel for instant incineration and/or recycling), humongous utility tunnels crisscrossing the city, smart poles (panic/emergency buttons on every street light and smart sensors and cameras connected to fast-speed wifi for monitoring the weather, traffic, and security), advanced water/sewer management system, underground powerlines, drone corridor, etc etc. The second phase has kicked off in earnest which is the building of vertical infrastructure, i.e buildings. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OglkWAKScp8 1 Like |

GeneralDae: Granted. This is a valid observation. The presence of black Americans in different countries can be attributed to a range of experiences and motivations. There are various reasons why Black Americans might choose to live in or visit different parts of Africa, could include economic opportunities, historical ties, educational pursuits, or simply personal preferences. It’s important not to generalize, each person’s story and purpose for being in these countries can vary widely. Atleast from my own experience, most of the black Americans in Kenya are simply moving away from the madness in America, gun violence, mass shootings, crazy inflation, a sense of belonging, you know it feels great being around people who look exactly like you, zero racism, for the first time you can simply exist in peace without looking over your shoulder as a black man/woman etc and the fact that Kenya offers an ideal quality of life comparative to what they had in America. My concern was with the naive guy's monomaniacal perspective of African Americans. |

BeforeJuly: So you think Kenya is the cheapest country in Africa, cheaper than Nigeria ? Jokes on you! There are tonnes of cheap aass countries like Nigeria where the value of the local currency is useless and a typical American would become an instant millionaire. But they dont go there. Why? Because of other things, including the quality of life, constant access to electricity, etc. Thats why Nigerians and other Africans are trooping to Kenya and vlogging about it day and night. It's important to understand that the conversation around black American travelers, including passport bros, isn't just about stereotypes or seeking relationships abroad. There are layers to this conversation that touch on economic freedom, cultural exchange, and even the search for identity outside the confines of Western society. Your claim doesn't fully explain the diversity of motivations behind black Americans traveling abroad. Reducing the movement to a simple narrative of exploitation overlooks the complexity of why humans seek different experiences and connections in other countries. It's also crucial to be careful not to lump everyone into the same box. Travel, whether for leisure, relationships, or self-discovery, is multifaceted, and discussions around black unity and empowerment can apply to many of these contexts, or NOT! I encourage you to look deeper into the various reasons behind these movements and not just focus on the surface-level interpretation. Watch the initial video I shared that drove you nuts to understand why the guy interviewed (not Auston) moved to Kenya with his mum and has stayed for 10 years. Why didnt they move to Nigeria for instance? Thats all explained. 1 Like |

BeforeJuly: You sound frustrated over a simple video. According to self-hating co.ck- suckers like you white people who visit Africa are tourists but black Americans who do the same are passport bros. What then do we call Nigerians drowning in the high seas heading for Europe? |

Konza Technopolis. THE DREAM now is materializing. Easily the most TECHNOLOGICALLY ADVANCED city in Africa by 2030. This city will birth the Black Technology Empire. In June 2024 the city will officially launch its UAS corridor (unmanned aerial vehicle services flight path). Drones the size of the Hindenburg are already flying over the city https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PeYLTN1xHpY https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=V4LyGCuEvXs https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=u0n2kiHgTMs&t=52s&pp=ygUKa29uemEgY2l0eQ%3D%3D |
