The geekiest girls of Kenya is right under your eyes (+1 lucky stalker heheh) meeting @*IHub. Here you got Angela Nicole, Lillian Nduati, Linnet Quamboka, Judith Adem Owigar, Muthoni, Jessica Colaco. I must soon do their logo inspired from Carol hairstyle (!!!). The group is called Akirachix (Akira + Chicks) and is under construction too, but the idea is to empower Kenyan tech-ladies to take over and help each other. Nice initiative of the fantabulous Jessica Colaco (TED Fellow 2009), meeting once every 15 days or so. Pretty nerdy round here O_O ;p
