      Word goes that .KE would have been the first African nation to be declared Independent as early on in 1952. Mau Mau resistance kicked in bitterly upon learning the betrayal by the Mkoloni to deny our independence and a state of emergency declared to neuter the resistance until 1959. 7 years later in December 1963, .KE became independent much later than peer majority black majority nations of GH (1957), NGR (1960), TZ (1961), UG (1962) & RW (1962). Had that happened then, the rest would have been history, a G20 nation or developed nation after SA or EGY

    I'm Zimbabwean and I do follow both AT's. I enjoy your videos a lot. I have always thought of Nairobi as a model city in Africa, as it doing well in terms of scale and scope of infrastructural development. When Nairobi builds, its never a micky mouse project, its usually something quite grand. Thika Highway, Nothern bypass, now Nairobi Express Highway, and various other projects are all very huge projects. The current beautification of Nairobi that incorporates the beautifully paved walkways is just wow,wow, wow and some wow. How I wish there were several General Badi's for every African city. Can we clone the man and have copies of him to fix other African cities? Could you please do a video of my favourite project in Nairobi, The Michuki memorial park project. Most videos of the project are not quite as in depth as I would prefer. Thank you visiting my country. I had hoped to bump into you and Harmony Mr Zim when you around. Hope that will happen next time, when you bring along African Traveller.

      You need to remember Kenya has a larger economy than Namibia so it is richer than Namibia as an economy, coming 3rd in Sub Saharan Africa after South Africa and Nigeria. Nairobi is also the fifth wealthiest city in Africa coming after Lagos, Cairo, Cape Town, Johannesburg. Nairobi also has an almost equivalent number of USD millionaires with Cape Town, so there is definitely great opportunity for grand real estate. Kenya also has the second largest number of expats after SA on the continent. With this in mind, you should then understand why Kenya in general is not a small player on the continent but is still developing.

Tigress you are a gracious person, you took us to many African towns & cities & never once talked down or ran-down those places, instead you praised some of them as though there were no other places more beautiful. Yet, your own Capital city was/is - THE CREAM DE LA CREME. Thank you Tigress, I know now - Nairobi is more beautiful than Harare & Bulawayo in Zimbabwe.

    The original version of that song. My land is kenya by a Kenyan born Roger Whittaker reminds me about his family in Loresho years ago .

    In his album ... A musical safari.
    Shimoni, oh Shimoni You′ll have to find the answer And the answer has been written down In Shimoni, Shimoni We have to find the answer And the answer has been written down In Shimoni, Shimoni, Shimoni, Shimoni
    And the answer has been written down
    There's a hole in the side of Africa
    Where the walls will speak if you only listen. Walls that tell a tale so sad That the tears on the cheeks of Africa glisten Stand and hear a million slaves Tell you how they walked so far That many died in misery While the rest were sold in Zanzibar.

Same number plates, The upper class Nairobi suburbs have smaller yards and have cookie cutter houses. But they are surrounded by such beautiful woodlands. Harare has literally everything from street names to suburb names in English, Kenyans seem more proud of their African heritage . Nairobi has more good looking men (please don't argue with me coz Kenyan men are hotter lol) and Nairobi seems to be growing faster, but that's coz it's got more people, more people means more development seeing that the city is HUGE. Harare seems much cleaner than Nairobi, overall I love the SIMILARITIES. WELL DONE AFRICAN TIGRESS, you're my inspiration!!! I love youuuu!!!

    There's part of our history that doesn't get mentioned so often, Kenya was meant to be an apartheid like South Africa. They had already set up Indian areas, White areas and black areas. Kikuyus, Maasais, Embus and Merus were chased out of their lands to have the white farmers in what was called the white highlands similar to what happened to black South Africans. When the Maumau uprising started most members of the GEMA communities who were leading the revolution were put in concentration camps, most males were transferred to far places such as Kismayu, Lodwar etc and majority never came back. Kikuyus call this 'Ithamirio'.. In a span of 60 yrs we have managed to get our country back something blacks in SA are still fighting for to date, we have something going on and I believe that is something to be proud of. We have come a long way, ours was a revolution not a transition like in Tanzania or Uganda where the British willing fully left... I know we beat ourselves so hard sometimes because obviously we are not where we wanted to be but we are on the right track, with the new oppressors looking like us the only thing we must not do is stop keeping vigil, I hear they want to grab Uhuru Park and Uhuru gardens but I know they won't succeed just like the white oppressors didn't.. #Badomapambano.

      @@mosalethoba5267 Don't take it as shade. It is just a reference to apartheid era that went on long after many African countries got independence. There are 25,000 White Kenyans and 50,000 Kenyans of Indian descent to date. A dot to Kenya's population. I would not say the same about SA on those numbers Black Kenyans control the economy and are the largest land owners in Kenya contra to what is said. There are land issues since some of the land taken by colonialists never went back to the rightful communities, but it is still majorly owned by the ruling/elite Kenyan families. Those racial colonial structures have faded away but you may see some remnants of them. The areas where black people could not live are currently mixed up. There is a narrative that is often perpetuated how Kenya has "many" Indians and whites but that is far from the truth. They could be tourists or on work permits since there are many international companies and they still are not so many to bump the numbers significantly considering Kenya gets 2 million tourists of all races in a year. That does not make them "owners" of Kenya or mean there are no rich Kenyans and does not make them majority of anything. There are significant numbers both poor and rich black Kenyans because they are the majority anyway.

Kenya was a settler colony, so you can imagine the kind of battles Kenyans fought to kick the Brits out. These folks had pitched camp and even partitioned Kenya into White Highlands. Our beautiful country and cool weather was our undoing, the fight was not easy. Same applied to Southern Africa, they loved these two sides.
