    Hi UG Connect,Somali is a tribe in Kenya and surprisingly the 6th largest tribe in a nation of more than 45 tribes. I believe the large number of this ethnic community is due to location of the mall in it's self.
    Otherwise UG Connect I always love your content. Let's celebrate diversity and the steps geared towards making Africa great.
    Karibu Kenya.

    Lawrence and Dolphine I always always enjoy your lively collabs - not him teasing you about showing your nyash 😂😂😂😂😂. Both malls offer different activities and are needed in the region. BBS is way bigger though - must be so expensive to keep it clean and well lit. Shout out to the Somalis for being so hardworking not just in Kenya but in Uganda and all over the world. I like how spacious the hallways and shops are - big time business!!! That little trolley was a first. Thanks so much for sharing - impressed!

    The fact that there's 52 mega malls in Nairobi shows how rampant mall culture is in the city and the funny thing is that most malls are built in middle to lower class neighbourhoods. Those living along the superhighway and Eastlands are the ones who enjoy the most.

    People ought to know that Somalis are Kenya's sixth largest tribe. And I am not talking about Somalis from neighbouring contries like Somali but those native Somalis. Thatbis why Kenya is different from ALL neighbouring countries because Kenya is ethnically diverse! The countries have Sonalis who are immigrants and not native like Kenya.

    Konza Technopolis, also known as Silicon Savannah, is a large technology hub planned by the government of Kenya to be built 64 km south of Nairobi on the way to the port city of Mombasa. It is marketed as a key driver of Kenya's national development plan, known as Kenya Vision 2030. It is the largest and the only one of it's kind in Africa. The South African one is far much smaller and outdated. The Rwandese came of to study Konza City in out to build theirs.

    Are they the richest in Kenya 3:51? That's a quite controversial question, and I guess should not be asked, especially at a time when Kenya seriously needs integration and a shift from tribalism. Most Kenyans don't declare their wealth and even if they did, it is not really easy or even practical to associate wealth with a tribe. That said, if tribes were to be associated with wealth, we would just need to consider investment in key sectors of the economy. Roughly, 1) Kikuyus, 2) Asian-Kenyans, 3) Kalenjins, 4) Somalis. In reality, Kenya has two tribes - the rich and the poor.
