Kenya tumebarikiwa na alot of minerals, ni vile major explorations hasn’t been done. Recently Kakamega kuna discovery ya gold worth ksh 680 billion na pia Kwale iko na coal. Hii mineral royalties inaeza tusaidia kujenga new level six hospitals, new airports, new universities na markets. Mkiona nchi kama South Africa ni 70% desert, but wako na tripple our GDP, due to mineral exports ya planitum na gold. Tunafaa tukuwe a mining economy and be an african superpower. Meanwhile, tutam.

Kenya should concentrate with the exploitation of Coal, a resource that can directly and significantly lower our cost of energy and lowering the cost of living.
The other resource that wr should be fighting for, is that Turkana water, a resource that can transform Kenya Agricultural landscape in a positive manner.
Hence, Industrial and Agrarian revolution in one stroke. Loyalty equals pennies per $100 of resources mined. You get a small %.

Coal is the second most traded mineral worldwide. Nchi za wazungu Na China walitumia for industrialization Kwa sababu Ni cheap Kwa production ya electricity uki compare Na natural gas Na nuclear power. Maneno ya coal kuaribu ozone layer ni woke nonsense ya wazungu hawataki nchi zingine zikuwe Na industries. Kenya tunaeza kuwa energy self reliant tukiextract coal.

there is no gold in kakmega, it is just an excuse the government needs to displace hundreds of thousands of people without fracus

Haiwezi, the acquifer has been found to be extremely saline. Hiyo majine iko na chumvi kuliko indian ocean. To clean it would require 5 billion a year just for test phases. Final count no about 30 billion a year

Do we really have any mineral “wealth” if royalties are set at a paltry 3% and mzungu pockets the remaining 97%? This country is a big joke, colonialism never ended, just rebranded.
