Nairobi named most intelligent city in Africa in 2017

[Jay456watt]

Nairobi was the only African city to appear on their shortlist of 21 hubs throughout the world for 2015. Intelligent Community Forum co-founder Robert Bell says: "We see a strong foundation being put into place [in Nairobi]: sensible, pro-growth government policy, a more diversified economy, and an innovation ecosystem of startups, international companies and universities.

The Kenyan capital, however, didn't make it to the next round that will see seven communities around the world contesting in June for the 2015 Intelligent Community of the Year award -- in alphabetical order, the 2015 Top7 Intelligent Communities were Arlington County (U.S.), Columbus, (U.S.), Ipswich (Australia), Mitchell (U.S.), New Taipei City (Taiwan), Rio de Janeiro (Brazil) and Surrey (Canada).

Nairobi, Kenya

Behind the façade of Hustling in the city of Nairobi, Kenya
Tales of horror brought about by marauding gangs that kill without a second thought, they prowl and prey on their victims with lethal force. They may look too intoxicated when they patrol the dark alleys and streets of Eastlands in Nairobi, but the bleary eyed youngsters dressed in chains and oversized hoods will kill just to get a phone. Hidden in Kayole is a gang that for over a decade has terrorised residents in the area and outskirts of Nairobi.

Like in most parts of the city, residents watch their backs, businesses close early for fear of being robbed. One gang member narrates how their crime networks operates.
