😁😁😁 To the extent of establishing their troops and bivouac with fully UK sovereignty in Kenya, they are owning you and your welfare depends upon them.

Acacia gets directive guidelines and subdue to our authoritative decision which could never be questioned or weighed within any other entity whether from outside or inside our Republic, that's why we slapped them heavily with penalties and fines and they pay without demanding clarification from whatsoever.

We banned them from operating in Tanzania and we're actively observing their movements now as we demanded their absence ASAP from it's senior Barrick

This is why we couldn't get along, coz we are discussing with little boys.

In other words, since huelewi... Mungiki sect doesn't exist! Kuja na jipya

Here they will never own an inch of land because the land is for Tanzanians and not foreigners, you don't need to tell me how much they own, they own Kenya already and I know that.

That's a topic for another day.

We were talking about attracting British lords, royalties as tourists.
While you're celebrating of getting 2 or 3 in ten years, hundreds of them call Kenya home.

Nyerere was not born by the time the so called majimaji rebellion aganist germany happened..Who ever faught the germans with such kind of nonsense war strategies deserved their death..
The new art of war that nyerere used aganist the british is the hallmark of supreme intelligence..And the same tactics have been used aganist islamic extremists of all kinds..That is why 20 years after the joint dar/nbo attack, kenya is still struggling while Dar is safe

The war for independence started way before Nyerere. He was simply continuing it.

That said, Tanzania did not gain independence because of Nyerere understanding of 'the art of war'.
Neither did Kenya gain because of Mau Mau or Jomo Kenyatta.

We gained independence because the British decided time had come. Anti-colonialists in Europe prevailed, and that's why all countries in Africa gained independence around the same time.

And only a fool can link 1998 bombing to what is happening in Somalia right now.

At the end of the day it's cash that matters, we are totaling 2.7$ billion over you.

UK slaps Kenya with new travel alert, citing kidnap risk

The UK Tuesday rocked Kenya’s tourism with a warning to its citizens against the risk of kidnapping in the country following an updated travel advisory that could hit recent gains in the travel sector after years of recovery.

The Foreign and Commonwealth Office (FCO) in a fresh travel guidance issued on Tuesday expanded the areas where her citizens should be vigilant for kidnappings to include Kenya’s top conferencing, safari and beach tourism destinations.

The UK foreign office advisory comes less than two months after the United States listed Kenya among the global kidnapping hotspots in a new risk indicator that Washington introduced for travel advisories.

“There’s a heightened threat of terrorism, including terrorist kidnappings, across Kenya, including to people travelling in or through Nairobi, the coast and resort areas around Mombasa and Malindi, the towns of Narok, Naivasha, Nanyuki and Meru and their surrounding areas, and the northern border counties,” the FCO statement read.

“Attacks, including terrorist kidnappings, could target Westerners, including British nationals.”

The advisory lists places frequented by foreigners such as hotels, bars, restaurants, sports bars and nightclubs, sporting events, supermarkets, shopping centres, coastal areas including beaches, airports, buses, trains and other transport hubs as possible areas which could be targeted. UK was the fourth leading source of foreign tourists to Kenya last year when earnings from the sector jumped 37 percent to Sh157 billion — which is the biggest increase in more than a decade.


It brought in 184, 002 tourists, equivalent of 9.09 percent of 2,025,206 arrivals, behind US, Tanzania and Uganda.

But the UK tourists spend more per head compared to travellers from Tanzania and Uganda. The UK foreign office advisory has invited protests from local tourism players.

“The blanket condemnation of Kenya as a destination is not very healthy (for the industry),” Kenya Tourism Federation chairman Mohamed Hersi told the Business Daily after the UK reviewed risk indicators to include kidnappings.

“Kenya is not a country where you ran a risk of getting kidnapped. We host the UN offices in Nairobi and another 150 diplomats. It (kidnapping) happens sometimes, but only along the border which is a no-go zone for many of the tourists and business visitors.”

Two Cuban doctors in Mandera were ambushed in April 12 by gunmen, believed to be linked to the Al Shabab militants, on their way to work two days after the US issued the alert.

Kenya is yet to find an Italian charity worker, Ms Silvia Constanca Romano, who was abducted in Kilifi County on November 20, 2018.

The 2013 travel alerts reduced the flow of tourist dollars, a valuable source of foreign exchange, put pressure on the shilling and forced some hotels out of business.

The industry has since recovered following improved security and aggressive marketing in foreign capitals.

Earnings dropped from Sh94 billion in 2013 to Sh84.6 billion a year later, following the Westgate attack. It then rose to Sh157 billion last year from Sh120 billion in 2017.

MY TAKE
When Kenya counts Tanzanian and Ugandan travellers as tourists instead of business travellers know something is wrong!
