Kenya rocks!

Interesting stuff happening in Nairobi, Kenya. from iHub to Nailab, I think the developer community there is really thriving and really productive through these technology incubators.

I hope they also take decentralization to heart and not concentrate efforts only in Nairobi. As in Accra, the capital is often choked and not much can be done in a day. So in Ghana for example, we need to foster the developer communities in Kumasi and other regions.

Think about g-ghana and BarCamp happening in the Prempeh Assembly Hall. Perhaps when the technology park in Ejisu by KNUST is completed.

I find the Zuku internet provider’s prices great. You get 512kbps for about Ghc 50 through wimax compared to Vodafone Ghana’s Ghc 65. What is even better is the 1mbps for about 85 cedis whilst you have to pay 185 cedis for that in Ghana. We definitely need stronger competition in the ISP space in Ghana.
