Ugly. These are lower-middle-class housing in Kenya. You find them in Nairobi Metro.

I pity your miserable soul. Nai-robbery has a long way.

Saddamochieng00:


Oh Sammy! A grown man like you should not be having insecurities about his sexuality and his looks at this age.

This just goes to show how immature you are cause Its only teenagers who are disturbed by such silly things.

Come out of the closet already no body will beat you...it's a faceless forum you know

vankelvin:
Yes,
Atta Mills's time they did all the feasibility studies for mono-rail transport but was later paused.
Mahama's time they tried building the Light-rail but loss the election.
And this Government is trying to continue.
We just hope they start it.

Mahama got big dreams. His projects are of higher standard. I am sure he would have finished the project by now.

You don't get it. The interest capping bill was very popular - because banks (like everywhere) were charging people Ghana like interest - well not exactly that bad - but sometimes 20% -

Now gov has attempted to repeal this without success since it got passed in 2016. The interest capping bill had been popular since 1995 but never saw the light until the gov was cornered in the election year of 2017 - and bankers finally lost.

Anyway 3 yrs later - credit growth didn't happen - as Banks bought gov debt instead of lending to risky sectors. The real estate suffered as you saw cement consumption dropped from 6.7M to 6.5M and now about 6M.

There was a court case too by CBK to contest it - and eventually, the Supreme Court of Kenya, ruled it unconstitutional for interfering with Central Bank's independent mandate to set monetary policies.

So in 2019 - Gov brought in amendments as part of the budget/financial bill amendment.

Mps rejected it - and it went to the president - and the president vetoed the financial bill - and it was brought to parliament.

For parliament to overturn the president vetoe of any bill - they need 2/3 of parliament.

They failed in one controversial voting where gov basically used all tricks - and president vetoe won - interest capping was repealed.

It was not going to be easy to repeal such a popular law.

Just30:
so basically it hasn't been repealed because your national Assembly could not raise a 2/3rd majority to overturn it.

Saddamochieng00:


Show us what your govt has done since Rona to make the cities more people-friendly .

Nigga eco-friendly is different from whatever nonsense you saying..lol people-friendly

Saddamochieng00:


I know you have so many skeletons in your closets but with me around be sure that they ain't safe any longer.

Lol I am shaking already...

Lol such weak threat..try again

Shma:
I have only seen a bus station and sketchily less than seven rail stations.

I am talking of the ones U/C...I don't know you are talking about.

rvp2018:
You are still insisting that hydraulic cement is not another name for portland cement . The only reason they are not calling portland is because in the developed world - they are rarely sold in 50kg bags like Ghana or Kenya - but most as pre-mix - the cement companies sell either concrete or mortar - they do the mixing at factory.

Back to GHANA cement consumption.

As of 2016 - US estimates you were doing 4M metric tonnes. In 2019 my own calculation came to around 5.1M tonnes.

Kenya has solid data lasting from 1963 to the highest precision.

soon we will have 2017, 2018 and 2019 data....

Otherwise cement consumption would show up in Accra or Kumasi or TEMA...there is nothing there.

Except if cement consumption were all about highrise I dosage completely on the emboldened.

any link ?

so that means its almost topping out.? Cos it's a mere 19floors building ..

And what if I say it has stalled?

Lol atleast try to be creating you ever dream of trolling me...stop copy my style...

It's 20 btw.

forgiveness:



Mahama got big dreams. His projects are of higher standard. I am sure he would have finished the project by now.

All the leaders has positive and well thought out idea to revamp the country. I have taken time to study their initiative. It is just that they are weary in executing it . Probably trying not to tied the country with too much future debt .

This current administration is piloting a very successful social infrastructure , the past one was very interested in physical infrastructure.. all boiled down to what matter to each political interest .

This is a current plan . Hope it is executed soonest.

We shouldn't put the blame on the Nigerian guy. Can't you see how ugly she is. May the Good Lord forgive me?

Heck I am not blaming him.. Never...
I blame the bi*tch

You can have the video. Gov had to play dirty otherwise MPs were going to overturn president vetoe. Kenyan banks remember having been making supernormal profits since 1998!!

There was high drama and almost rigging by gov

From that pic it's barely 10 flrs...10 more to go

up to you boy

It is not my data but the industry data.

ofcourse there are other stats, it is all available there.

when Kenya was progressing which is before 2016, consumption was between 6.2 to 6.7MT.

Now that kenya is not progressing, it did 5.49MT in 2017 and 5.9mt in 2018

Yeah.when they were in a boom..
Now it's over

okay

i will watch it in free time

The Banks have behaved so far but if they start charging 20% - the bill will be brought back. How Ghana and Nigeria survive with a 25-30% loan is beyond me.

Lovely, 100% owned by black Nigerian, not some random Muhindi,The 22-floor edifice will set the billionaire oil mogul back a whooping N60billion or $165million but at a networth of nearly $3billion, it shouldn’t be a problem for the former fashion designer who is said to be financing the project herself with no loans from any bank. plus the constructions has gone past this level,

Yes the building is built by Africa's richest black woman...heck I mean the world richest black woman...
She is building west Africa most expensive tower @ $165m(just a single tower)... I am not surprised honestly, Afterall one of her houses is regarded to be one of the most Expensive buildings in the world....a grandiose lookiyhouse in banana island..

Shma I made a mistake, it's 22 flrs...12 more flrs to go

By raising prices while limiting the participation of foreign retailers in the retail market.
There by creating enough buffer and a sizeable market for players.

Producers usually get their loans lesser.

Shma:
19fls

22 flrs

The delusion of grandeur. She is not richest African woman leave alone black woman. Just say the richest Nigerian woman - holding oil blocks on behalf of Nigerian Northern barons.

don't deceive people.
That tower is topped out, I can see the last beam which suggests so.
Cladding is also underway., that means the tower is topped out, nothing like 10flrs to go.

Its 10flrs and topped off.

The problem is not the competition. Our banking sector is free - and any player can come in. We have 45 banks.

The problem is dealing with defaults in a country where collaterals protection is weak. Title deed in kenya are wrought with graft - so if you fund someone to build a house - and you end up with useless title deed.

And then worse our court case is bogged down with huge case backlog - resolving any dispute will take years.

So this is what hails our banking sector.

As for Ghana - GOD HELP YOU: The macro-economics are SCREWED.

C'mon get off your high horse and appreciate this carefully planned gated community .Even Though beauty might be subjective it doesn't mean you should play down this because it's not located in Karen. if those monotonous vertical structures you guys having been showing us from the beginning of this thread to this moment is the definition of beauty then maybe the word beauty means complete opposite of what it ls.

LOL: 10 floors from richest black fashion designer. In kenya every tom, dick and harry can build such.

jeez @samorobo........ You're still a laaitjie your balls probably haven't even dropped yet

My ribs have been aching for two straight days
The nigga was so stupid to fall for my trap now look he has gone and changed his profile pic just to cover the shame

samorobo:


22 flrs

am now convinced that the tower is merely 13 flrs topped out.

The first video was okay - if there we enough greenery. This one is Nairobi Metro towards south of Nairobi.

Nairobi has a world-class residence. Let us not go to Nairobi.

Let us try Nairobi Metro - Kiambu, thika, etc

Nothing to see here... Just a regular Kenyan senator flying in chopper style to commission a classroom.

Kenyan Senator, Kithure Kindiki was elected into the country's parliament first in 2013 and served as the majority leader of the Senate. Shortly after winning his reelection bid in 2007, he was made the deputy senate speaker, a position he held until he was impeached in May of 2020.

The extravagant politician who even moves around in an helicopter literally abused his people and particularly the populace by helping to build a single class room block made of mud. Because he flew in a helicopter just only to help with a construction a mud classroom for a mud school in 2018.

Lol the last paragraph is so funny.

Too bad for you

We dont much of a court challenge so businesses do not have those limits.

We have a lands issue and land cases can take years to resolved but if you need issue free lands, you can easily get them.

As for our macro economics, they are not much of an issue since everything in economics have a cascading effect which can be both good and bad.
