37:20 Some of the Kenyans who complain have no understanding of how the project was built and assume it is tax-payer funded so they feel it is wrong to be charged for a road built on taxes...but of course that is not the case, there are investors who put in their money and must recoup it with a profit too. These are the very Kenyans who also complain when loans are taken. So they will never be satisfied by anything. They thrive by complaining about each and every thing. Of course there are some who genuinely cannot afford. But that does not mean everyone cannot afford. Many are willing to pay for the convenience and can afford it. Afterall, when you are driving on the same stretch of 27km and are stuck in traffic for 3hours or even more, you burn more fuel and waste of time is loss of money too.

[@philbland]

Yeah it’s worth the expense long term history belongs to the builders not the bean counters 👍🏻 thanks so much for watching and commenting ❤️ 🙏🏻

[@martinkibet4074]

I have just found your channel today and I have really like it, continue with the same spirit,so I'm your new subscriber (love you from eastern Uganda).

[@philbland]

Oooh amazing you’re very welcome here!! 👍🏻😄

[@blackhibiscus1876]

Nice one. I haven’t been home yet since that was built. Though I know Nairobi thoroughly well. Quite informative for me too. Thank you.

[@enriquekings9099]

Summary: The Nairobi Expressway is a 27km road, Costed approx Ksh. 80 bn, It's a PPP project to be paid in 30 years before handing over to Kenyan government, It's connecting not only 2 Airports(Wilson & JKIA) but also 3 counties Kiambu county(dominant tribe- kikuyu) from Westland toll station, Nairobi County then Machakos County(dominant tribe-Kamba)- Mlolongo toll station Matatus were prohibited after the accidents but now some are back after complying to the set requirements

[@philbland]

Nice 👌🏼 thanks so much for watching and commenting ❤️ 🙏🏻

[@asenathkiaw]

No need to make every thing about tribes. Both Kikuyu & Mlolongo are metropolitan areas. All kinds of Kenyans living there

[@Lewisjahatv]

So cold in Nairobi, a little bit hotter in Mombasa where I am now 👌🏼👍🏻 thanks so much for watching and commenting ❤️ 🙏🏻

[@victormuriuki8250]

The time i went via the express way from Mlolongo to westlands it cost sh. 360 paying cash. but it would have been cheaper and faster to be cleared on the exit queue at the westlands exit if i had an ETC or MTC card

[@philbland]

Nice tip 👌🏼 thanks so much for watching and commenting ❤️ 🙏🏻

[@dolphine254]

SGR to Mombasa cost Ksh.1000(10$) for ecomony class and Ksh.3000(30$) for first class.

[@philbland]

Nice info 👌🏼 thanks so much for watching and commenting ❤️ 🙏🏻

[@nelick4326]

Would wish to see next a tour vlog of both phil and Brittney in the express way ,, and also hope it will be more out side view of the road and the infrastructure and less of inside the car vlog

[@philbland]

Alright appreciate the suggestion 😁👍🏻 thanks so much for watching and commenting ❤️ 🙏🏻

[@doctorharry]

In the building watching from Barbados😎

[@philbland]

Awesome 🤩 keep it coming!! Thanks so much for watching and commenting ❤️ 🙏🏻

[@baroznoma2056]

It was built by mostly Kenyan engineers, cement and steel from Kenya but funded by china . Not overpriced, finished in one year. Loan to be paid only by users. Conclusion: good project . African Traveller explains all the raw materials and talks to engineers💯✅💪

[@philbland]

Oooh great summary 👌🏼😁👍🏻 Thanks so much for watching and commenting ❤️ 🙏🏻

[@esem135]

Some of the info thrown around is politicized so people have to be careful about what narrative they chose to believe. The debt burden on Kenyans is reduced since most projects after the SGR are on on loan but on Private Public Partnership (PPP) models. The Expressway is PPP funded, partnership by Chinese investor and the Government of Kenya. Investors to recoup the investment cost and get revenues for 27 years and the project will be in full control by the Government of Kenya.

[@baroznoma2056]

@@esem135 And you're just being negative. This comment and video was just about the expressway n not all other projects. The truth they'll pay the loan using that money collected in the toll station, not all Kenyans will pay for it. That's was was my point 🙏🙏
