Jubilee has been launching useless projects to please China while overburdening Kenyan taxpayers and when things start falling apart, the President has to face his shame.
The latest shame that Uhuru Kenyatta has been forced to defend is the extension of the Standard Gauge Railway (SGR) from Nairobi to Naivasha.
“Some prophets of doom are saying that this railway is going nowhere but as a government, we know what we are doing as we are planning for the future,” he said.
According to Uhuru, Kenyan Bulletin can not verify the numbers, since SGR started its operations in Mombasa, over 3.5 million passengers and 6 million tonnes of cargo had been transported, reducing traffic congestion in the Coast region.
On offering Museveni the land in Naivasha, the same Museveni who is chasing Kenyans their from Migingo homes, Uhuru said this
“We have offered land to our neighbours in the 1,000 acres set for an industrial park and we expect thousands to get employment opportunities,” he said.
“We have set aside land for construction of houses around this park and we are calling on the State to address the condition of the road linking the SGR to Maai Mahiu,” Nakuru Govenor Lee Kinyanjui backed his boss.
On the Nairobi Expressway, Uhuru said China Road and Bridge Corporation (CRBC) would construct, run and charge toll for 30 years before handing it back to the Government.
“We require Sh400 billion to bring our roads to desired levels and the only way we can do this is by working with partners,” he said.
On his visit to the Port of Kisumu on Tuesday, Uhuru told of his shock on learning that some equipment set for auction had been serviced and were operating.
“A ship that had been declared as unfit for use had sailed from Kenya to Uganda while train wagons set to be sold as scrap metal are in good condition,” he said.
Chinese Ambassador to Kenya Wu Peng said his country was keen to partner with Kenya in various infrastructure development projects.
“Some countries neighbouring Kenya have expressed their interest in such a project and we are ready to offer them advice, expertise and technology,” he said.
The Ambassador did not say which countries though, Kenyan Bulletin has learnt that no single country wants the bullshit these neocolonialist trap African nations with in the name of development.
