Nakuru Town Kenya

Just a fool and ignorant will compare Mwanza with glorified villages like Naruku,
No one agreed on those figures you provided as they come straight from your very own ass.
Wakenya hamnaga akili nyie.

Wacha maneno mengi ya ukike, GDP figures ni rahisi sana kupata. IMF na world bank wako na estimate zote, ukumbuke hao ndiyo walisema mumeingia lower middle income na mukapiga shangwe na nderemo.
Hauna aibu ata kusema ati mwanza iko na goldmines mingi, na inaoneshwa kidole ya kati na mji ya wakulima.

Nakuru county inatoa 6.1% ya GDP ya Kenya ambayo ni $100 billion. Hesabu kwako, 6.1% ya 100 ni ngapi?
Mwanza region inatoa 7% ya GDP ya Tanzania ambayo ni $66 billion. Hesabu kwako tena, 7% ya 66 ni ngapi?


NB: Mwanaume penda masomo, si lazima kila kitu upikiwe na upakuliwe. Mwanza imeshinda Nakuru kwa population pekee, kwa sababu watanzania hamjui kitu ingine ila kuzaana kama panya. Wacha utanzania mingi ya mdomo bila kufikiria, jaribu kupiga hesabu kidogo. Ukishindwa na hesabu hapo juu uniambie nikupe jibu na dakika moja.
 
The largest mall in mwanza is rock city mall which is a medium sized mall in Kenya but i have seen Tanzanians call it "Mega mall", I do not know what they will say if they see two rivers and garden city malls or even lake basin mall in kisumu. Nakuru has about 4 of those medium sized malls.Buffalo mall in Naivasha is actually bigger than rock city mall, the now completed golden life mall in nakuru town is also bigger and the completed Jennifer Riria hub is also bigger than the largest mall in their second largest "city".

Before two river mall rock city mall was once the biggest Mall in east and central Africa ,50sqm is as the same as Garden city mall which is your second biggest Mall
 
Please keep to the things you know, do not chase waterfalls or try to swim with sharks.
i) Nakuru has a bigger GDP than Mwanza
ii) Nakuru has bigger and better infrastructure than Mwanza. In fact the new upcoming Nakuru international airport will also put your kiosks in Mwanza that you call an airport to shame.
iii) Nakuru has more industries than Mwanza.
iv) If Nakuru was in Tanzania it would have been given the status of a city 20 years ago.
v) Nakuru has more shopping malls than Mwanza. In fact no shopping mall in Tanzania can match the new mall in Nakuru.

All the above and yet it is the fourth largest urban area( not city) in Kenya.

Advice: Do not compare Nakuru to those non corrugated iron sheet ramshackles, you call cities in your country. In 2010,2014 the UN reported that Nakuru is the fastest growing town in Africa not east africa alone. In 2019 it was still the fastest growing town in east and central africa.
Try to compare all your "cities" apart from dar es salaam with kericho or kisii town not Nakuru. Dar es salaam can not compete with Nairob try mombasa.
You are comparing apples and oranges.. you clearly do not know how revenue systems work in Tanzania. Clearly. We have what we call council sources that what most of you are referring at.

Nakuru can't have many industries than Mwanza. Nakuru is hardly 350k people city and you want to compare it with Mwanza a 2m people city....lazima ukuwe mgonjwa. Where do you think majority of these people in Mwanza work!? Nakuru should be in the same league as Mtwara, Songea, Sumbawanga, Kigoma, Shinyanga an Bukoba or Musoma
 
i) Dar iko league moja na mombasa si Nairobi.
ii) Mwanza nayo league yake ni kisii town na kericho town.
iii) Google malls in Nakuru brother stop being lazy
iv) Mwanza GDP is $1,309 per capita (IMF 2019 estimate), Nakuru GDP is $2,422 per capita (IMF 2018 estimate) and growing at a faster rate than any town in east and central africa.

Boss masomo na kutembea hii dunia ni muhimu.

GDP per capita
Now to get city GDP you have to factor in Population. Mwanza Est. Population by 2020 is 2m People. Nakuru is 373k that puts Mwanza GDP at 2.6bn $ and Nakuru at 0.9bn$

Wewe Kenya na Tanzania ipi nchi kubwa? Kama kenya ni ndogo karibu twice iweje mue na pop karibu sawa na Tz?Tanzania nchi yetu ni kubwa kua 55M sio big deal...
Fyi ninyi ndio mnazaliana sana
 
Hawa watu wa Tanzania hutumia makalio kufikiria. Mzungu alisema "Little education is dangerous", watanzania wanakamilisha huo msemo. Masomo yao hafifu ya kijiji, inafanya wanafikiria kama mende.
Wewe pimbi unaelimu gani yakuona watz ni wajinga?mngekua mmesoma sana msingekua hapa na sisi tusioenda shule.
Waliosoma hawana tabia za ki layman kama unazoonyesha

Huanakumabia masomo ndio huana, Kabla two rivers mall Rund, the largest mall ilikuwa Garden city mall thika road ambayo ndiyo ya pili kwa ukubwa east and central africa, ikifatwa na lake basin mall kisumu ambayo ndiyo ya tatu kwa ukubwa east and central africa. Hiyo rock city ni ndogo sana ikiwa hapa kenya. Hata Golden life mall ya nakuru imeishinda na mbali.

Ujinga uko nayo ni mingi. Denmark iko na population ya watu 5 million unataka kusema GDP ya denmark ni ndogo kuliko Tanzania? Hii masomo yenyu ya peni mbili inawasumbua! Marekani iko na population ndogo kuliko india ila GDP yake ni kama mara tatu ya india.
Rudi shule ulisomea uitishe karo yako kwa sababu hiyo eimu ya peni mbili haikusaidii kufikiria kama binadamu.

Hahahaha, Fertility rate ya kenya ni 3.4 na ya Tanzania ni karibu 5 . Penda masomo yani lazima wakenya wakuje JF kuwapa elimu, kwani hii mtandao hua munatumia kutazama bongo flava tu na si kufanya masomo mtandaoni?

Hiyo fertility rate inamaanisha kila mwanamke mtanzania anazaa watoto 5 ilhali mwanamke wa Kenya anazaa watoto 3.4.Kweli nyerere alibeba akili zenu na akaenda nazo.

Umesema GDP ya Mwanza ni $1309 na ya Nakuru ni $2422 (what did you mean!?) Ili upate GDP per capita unatakiwa utumie nn!? Au ndio tuanze shule hapa JF!?

Nikajua unafahamu unachozungumza kumbe unapinga njunga tuu humu!? Kamasi tupu... Kiingereza tuu kumbe kichwa yai.

THE NEW SHOPPING CENTRE IN WESTERN KENYA SET TO SPUR THE REGION’S SOCIAL-ECONOMIC GROWTH.
20170221_122649-Mall.jpg

The Lake Basin Mall (LBM), the largest in Western Kenya, is expected to provide visitors with a fully-fledged shopping experience, add to the country’s GDP basket while boosting the region’s economy and ease the unemployment burden to the country, once it is fully operational.
According to the 2019 Economic Survey report highlighting Kenya’s economic performance for 2018, wholesale and retail trade accounted for 6.3% of the country’s GDP, ahead of the manufacturing sector and slightly behind the agriculture, forestry and fishing sector which accounted for 4.2% and 6.4% respectively of the 6.3% overall GDP growth recorded in 2018.
The shopping complex is owned by the Lake Basin Development Authority (LBDA), a government agency established in 1979 by an Act of Parliament to plan and coordinate the implementation of development projects in the Lake Victoria catchment area.
The entire project cost the taxpayer over 4.1 billion shillings ($41M).

The five-floor shopping complex has a floor area of approximately 62,000 square meters. It is located at Mambo Leo junction along the Kisumu-Kakamega road approximately 3.5 kilometers from the Kisumu CBD.
20170221_123411.jpg

The complex comprises of a modern mall with all social amenities, a lower floor parking area for 330 cars and recreational areas. It has a three-star hotel, showrooms for vehicles and other household goods, a tire center for servicing vehicles and has an electric perimeter fence and 24-hour CCTV cameras for security monitoring. The National Police Service is also expected to post officers to the mall to enhance security.
The entire project covers an area of approximately 8 acres. Construction began in August 2013 and ended in 2016.
“A DATE HAS NOT BEEN SET YET FOR THE OFFICIAL LAUNCH OF THE MALL, BUT IT HAS BEEN OPEN FOR THE PUBLIC SINCE 2017. THERE ARE A FEW SHOPS AND OFFICES THAT ARE ALREADY OPERATIONAL,” SAID DR. RAYMOND OMOLLO, LBDA MANAGING DIRECTOR.
Jobs in Western Kenya
Once it is fully operational, the shopping complex is projected to raise 220 Million Kenya shillings ($2.2 M) annually in rent besides generating revenue from other sources such as parking fees and advertising billboards.
“The mall is meant to encourage local investment, but foreign investors are also welcome. More than 500 jobs can be created, and this can ease unemployment and help grow the region’s economy and that’s why we built the mall,” said Dr. Omollo.
The government is struggling to cope with unemployment in the country. The Economic Survey report released by the Kenya Bureau of Statistics in 2019 revealed that the government created fewer jobs in 2018 compared to 2017 despite the country has recorded the highest GDP in years at 6.3 % in 2018 compared to 4.9% in 2017.
According to the survey, the government created a total of 897,000 jobs in 2017 against 840,600 jobs in 2018 -a drop by 56,400 jobs.
Sustainable Energy Use
The mall complex is fitted with solar panels that power the hot water system in the hotel and provide street and perimeter security lighting at the complex. The design also provides for skylights that ensure adequate natural light in the mall. It has a biodigester for recycling of water.

“One of our core mandates as the LBDA and provided in the Act (of parliament) that established the Authority is to pursue mitigation and adapt to climate change and ensure mainstreaming of cross-cutting issues in basin development,” said Dr. Omollo.
The LBDA’s compliance with green energy requirements is also informed by the Climate Change Act 2016, a regulatory framework providing for mechanisms to reduce Kenya’s carbon footprint. Under the Act, assented into law by President Uhuru Kenyatta in May 2016, all public and private entities must integrate climate change responses into their development planning.
Mall Tenancy
Tenancy agreements are still in progress with the retail space going for between 40 Kenya shillings ($0.4) and 80 Kenya shillings ($0.8) per square foot depending on the size and its location.
“As of now, the LBM is narrowing down to one (anchor tenant). We are in negotiations with a few interested international and regional retailers. As of today, (June 2019) 65% of the mall has already been booked and paid for,” said Dr. Omollo.
Corruption?
It has been alleged that the mall’s budget overshot by over 1.6 billion Kenya shillings prompting the Ethics and Anti-corruption Commission (EACC)-the anti-graft agency, to in November 2018, question nine former and current members of the LBDA management over the issue.
“The investigation is on-going, and it would be prejudicial to discuss it. The project was cleared as value for money by a team from the State Department of Public Works. The project’s final count was 4,138,895,104.89 (close to $41.4M),” said Dr. Omollo.
Underfunding and Debt
The LBDA which depends on government funding faced financial constraints that delayed completion of the project. According to the Auditor General’s report on the financial statements of the LBDA for the year ended 30th June 2017, the Authority secured a 1.5 Kenya shillings ($15M) loan to clear debts owed to the contractor of the mall.
In it’s 2017/2018 financial year, the Authority allocated one billion Kenya shillings ($10M) towards the partial clearance of a bank loan.
The Authority also recorded a 47% drop in its total income by the end of June 2017 after the government slashed its budget.
Dr. Omollo said a delay in paying the contractor led to the accrued interest which in turn increased the final cost of constructing the mall complex.
Establishing the complex is part of the Authority’s long-term strategy to engage in income-generating projects that will enable it to generate its own revenue and supplement its budget.

For now, efforts to get the mall fully up and running are on-going. Dr. Omollo said the delay in completing the Kisumu-Kakamega road which is right next to the mall had stopped some would-be tenants at the mall from starting operations right away.
“We are in a strategic location. The Kisumu-Kakamega road that is being constructed will give access to the mall. We have engaged a property manager who oversees both letting and management. We encourage business owners and the public to visit the mall and talk to him for spaces available,” said Dr. Omollo.
