If the information below is an Africa reawakening that the pathway to becoming a respected global voice is to develop from within and if it would mean paying a price, in my opinion is a welcome idea. You can't be respected if you come to the table at begging. Kenya Airways 🇰🇪 plans to expand its fleet by 30-40% and add 12 new destinations. Uganda Airlines 🇺🇬 is preparing to open new routes across Africa, including Abuja, Harare, and Lusaka, starting in September. Air Botswana 🇧🇼 is launching new routes, reinstating flights, and increasing frequencies in Southern Africa. South African Airways 🇿🇦 plans to add 9 destinations and boost its fleet by 50%, aiming for regional and international expansion. Royal Air Maroc 🇲🇦 plans to strengthen its fleet and expand its global network. EgyptAir 🇪🇬 will launch flights to 6 new destinations in Africa.

I've been thinking a lot about Kenya's potential lately. Here's the thing -I personally believe we've got some of the sharpest and brilliant minds not just in Africa, but in the world. No cap Let's talk about our human capital for a sec. We're churning out engineers, tech bros and sisters, and innovators left and right. Our people are out there killing it in Silicon Valley, and building amazing startups in Nairobi specifically, and in Kenya generally that are turning heads globally. But Why aren't we leveraging this brainpower to its full potential here in our motherland? Imagine if we really invested in our own talent. I'm talking serious, strategic investment in skills development, especially in sectors like infrastructure, tech, and renewable energy. We could be building and managing world-class airports, smart cities, you name it, all with our homegrown expertise. We've got the brains, the creativity, and the hustle. What we need is a system that nurtures this talent, keeps it here, and puts it to work solving our biggest challenges. I genuinely believe we have the resources and the smarts to be the giants of Africa worth benchmarking across. And not just by a little, we could be leagues ahead if we just play our cards right.

I was sincerely hoping that our government by now should at the very least have learnt that it’s not possible to force issues any more. In fact the saying that if you want to hide anything from a Kenyan put it in a book has all but been obliterated if the recent street protests are anything to go by. Kenyans read, and they compare, and they dig, and they smell. We all agree that our main airport needs serious improvements, but where are we rushing to? How for example can Rwanda build a whole brand new international airport for $2 billion and in Kenya, that can only achieve a new terminal and a taxiway. Nairobi is a very strategic city, in fact more strategic than Addis and if we were serious we would be handling far much more passengers and cargo than many countries combined. The problem is we joke too much. In the next 5 years Ethiopia will be handling 100 million passengers annually while we will still be at 12 million. But a win for any country in Africa is a win for Africa. On the Adani deal, take us slowly.
