I don’t see Rwanda becoming the new Nairobi. It’s landlocked, and the situation with Congo could risk turning Rwanda into a pariah state. Somalis should focus on investing in themselves or at the at least in Mogadishu. As the wealth in Somalia continues to build it will eventually spread out to other regions.
Rwanda is one of the wests favorite African countries. They're always pushed as the model for development in the continent. I really don't think they will face any huge repercussions for Congo. Pretty sure Kagame is aware of this as well. They've been meddling in eastern Congo for a long time at this point.
I don't think you're up to date
One thing Western countries don't like is an assertive African country.
Why have Rwanda and Belgium cut diplomatic ties? – DW – 03/18/2025
Belgium has successfully pushed the EU to impose sanctions on its former colony, Rwanda, over its military involvement in DR Congo. Rwanda has not taken the decision lightly.

I’ve been there like 3 times, it’s a service based country, it takes like 4 days to open any business but it has a small population with little spending power

Belgium has successfully pushed the EU to impose sanctions on its former colony, Rwanda, over its military involvement in DR Congo. Rwanda has not taken the decision lightly.
"The sanctions mainly target Rwandan government and M23 officials and do not touch on critical EU policies, agreements, or development aid. Titeca believes the latest measures, while an important step, fall short of what's needed to create a significant impact."
They sanctioned a refinery and only 3 defence officials from Rwanda, the rest are all M23 members. For someone that is starting a war with troops in a neighboring country, displacing millions, funding militias that are killing and raping indiscriminately, hiring child soldiers, etc this is nothing. If Kagame was to get a fair punishment it would be an ICC warrant. Like I said, I don't think Rwanda will face actual repercussions for its operations in Congo.
Yes, I remember years ago seeing a video of Kagame scolding his government for how long the bureaucratic the process was to register a business. Now the whole process is online and quick. Even shorter than 4 days.
Mogadishu ain't safe, too risky. The future for xamar looks grim as Shabaab relentlessly expands in next door regions. If your business is mid sized or large you'll be visited by them and forced to pay protection tax to them. No means your business will be bombed. The government that can't protect you will also demand taxes.
