Daring Abroad Sn2, Ep9: Why Kitengela is a Hot Investment Destination for Kenyans Living Abroad

[@taucetus3657]

Plant more trees in Kitengela. Plant many more trees in Kitengela and all over Kenya. If you want to continue breathing nice fresh cool air and seeing green lawns and landscapes enjoy the ambience that is the rural atmosphere with birds chirping, plant many more trees in Kenya, clean the lakes and the rivers, save the lakes. . Nairobi became a 'chocked' city because it has been mismanaged, too much concrete, overpopulated, noise, random development that is not properly planned, poor land management, too much traffic and nonexistent waste management.

[@iandiru6433]

I agree with you 100%

[@thev8machine200]

i agree with you. We need more greening programs in Kenya

[@diyside]

I think land is overpriced in Kenya and diaspora money is not making it easier for the locals.

[@homesteadingwiththeangafam2158]

😆😆😆this is very hilarious. But maybe buying land in the country away from cities and big towns is the solution to such problems. My opinion though.

[@phyllisplays3811]

But sometimes, we blame government on things that we can avoid, I remember there was case in area where society was warned or rather cautioned about building because it was government land and they were planning to built a road, but people never took it serious, until the day came, so, some of this things are result of ignorance..

[@sharonwangari3693]

Another great piece! I stay in Kitengela and its growing at a fast rate with interest in housing. Hopefully people with also invest in other sectors as well. We see you chams adventures.....nice one!!

Real estate employs a lot people, the service being offered by mason is employment and the materials for construction create demand for factories which in turn hire more people. Don’t be so close minded

There is no need of investing in Kenya if one knows he/she will not, never, or circumstances does not allow one to go back and live there. One can invest abroad and make a lot of money. When one decides to go to Kenya, just sell some of your investments and buy in Kenya. People who have lived abroad, especially America, over 20 years, and others have lived most of their lives in America than Kenya, need just to accept the fact that they are no longer “Kenyans.” Some have raised families who have no idea what Kenya is all about. They know America. Kenyans should not fear nursing homes that much. The state have your back. Enjoy life when you are energetic, when the energy fades away, the social security will take care of you. Life of always tomorrow misses the point.

[@Lactomatic254]
