As a business student I support the folding of @Nairobi_News, Its business, Bottom line matters However NMG should rethink overall Strategy

NMG has always been like this, raising and killing todlers siting it being unprofitable #NairobiNews. I never touched a copy though.

Shebesh is the only woman to have received a back to back ‘gubernatorial slap’, and a ‘senatorial punch’. #Nairobinews

Nairobi News was bound to FAIL they wanted to be a tabloid n be clean at it? Tabloid is dirty dirty n that’s why Nairobian is outselling

Why do I think that maybe #Nairobinews would have faired better as an online magazine. Less overheads & get bloggers to contribute

NMG’s Nairobi News now shelved due to non-profitability?
— Urbanus Kissiu (@urbanuskissiu) May 21, 2014
RT @fokango: NMG’s Nairobi news is closed after it fails to get traction from the readers – seriously? 🙁

And then there was this gem from this fool who decided to show Kenyans just how daft he is when he opened his mouth to speak like an expert on absolutely nothing:
So, gutter press *Read Nairobi News* finally discovered no one reads shitty gossip any more huh? That is why we have Twitter
