The Matiba children "mis" fortune

We bumped into one of the sons at some estblishment here…I was with a pal of mine from Nairobi whom they were old school friends with his elder siblings …and it got me thinking why couldn’t this children salvage the empire that their father had built…the guy was well articulated, upper class british accent( zile za expensive private UK schools) well dressed (very) and he seemed to be quite In touch with the business environment of us Diani locals…well back to my question with all that education, exposure and training why couldn’t the children salvage the business …just yesterday on my morning stroll on the beach I passed by their former crown jewel Alliance Safari Hotel which has been closed for decades and Is crumbling away ( pics attached)…the dad struggled to build an empire for his children now it seems it’s all turning to waste

Growing with money I guess you get bored with the rat race and see life from a different perspective. I am just back from the future and I am not all that ambitious now, hello @nairobilay.

Their other hotel here Alliance Jadini was bought by some Indians for a billion plus…iko na land kubwa sana I think 100 acres of prime beach front…they should have partners with an international hotel chain in renovation s and running the hotel…and then negotiate with the receivers…ningekuwa na means hii ningenunua

there is also this place branded two fishes, what went down pale, very good property, na ni kama the establishment closed in a hurry, bado mattresses, seats, curtains ziko kwa store

All those fires in mid 2000s. Africa safari club was the best.
Used to love the roar of the chatter flights to Tsavo every morning as they left. In the evenings we used to sit at the balcony and bet on the exact time the first one would fly over
