yaani vijijini ndio hatuwezi kabisa kujilinganisha na kenya-kenya nyumba za tembe/nyasi ni za kuhesabuServer za JF mnazijaza aisee.....same pictures over and over
Anyways, my contribution here is this
1) Dar es Salaam and Nairobi are both large cities by African standards, with Dar leading in terms of geographical size and population but Nairobi still ahead economically - that is in Gross Metropolitan Product (GMP) terms
2) Dar es Salaam will have crossed the 10 million residents mark by 2030, joining Kinshasa, Cairo, Lagos, Luanda and Johannesburg to be the only African megacities by then
3) Dar es Salaam will lift the most people out of poverty of any other African city.
4) Proper urban planning will be critical for both Nairobi and Dar es Salaam particularly hapo kwenye urban infrastructure. I have to say Nairobi is kind of ahead of Dar es Salaam in this; the roads there are spacious and not to mention the flyovers and the expressways. Dar es Salaam needs to catchup fast kwenye barabara focus isiwe sana kwenye majengo tu.
5) We need to stop focusing much on our cities and more on our rural population, which comprises over 70% of our populations. I hate to say this but Magufuli's government is not pro-poor as he famously claims it to be!
