This is Mombasa rd pictured in 1975. This is where the Enterprise Rd adjoins. Firestone Factory (current Sameer Africa) is seen on the right.

Those days a Peugeot 404 would take 6 hours from Nairobi to Mombasa, carrying 4 passengers. Today a modern train takes more than 6 hours.

Not for free, for a private consideration, Meralli was as corrupt as they came and thus they became business partners with the old man. Thats how in the late 90s he was able to get a mobile telecom license
