New Singapore or Singa-Poor? The country—and the government—keep telling us we’re moving in the right direction. But on the ground, the economy says otherwise, especially for SMEs. Recently, many Kenyan youths have been left with no source of income after demolitions wiped out their only livelihoods 😢. Youth-owned businesses and low-income families have felt this firsthand—from Marigoini to the recent Mukuru kwa Njenga bypass demolitions. Mama mbogas, vibandas, and kiosks were brought down, leaving families stranded with nothing to fall back on. So the big question is: what should the government do to ensure these Kenyans are treated equally and with dignity? And the bigger quiz remains—are we headed to Singapore, or Singa-Poor?
