Scammed in Africa's Biggest Slum 🇰🇪 vA 84

  • Опубликовано: 1 дек 2023
  • I walk around Kibera, the second biggest slum in Africa, in Nairobi, in Kenya. I meet some friendly people, and after struggling to arrange my lunch, I find myself in a weird situation... the man of a restaurant asks me for a ridiculously high price for ugali, the cheapest food in Kenya.
    Then, I keep walking around, meeting some nice and some strange people.
    What a place it is!

    The history of kibra, The Nubian soldiers were fighting in the world war and when they came back the British didn't want them to go back to Sudan, so they gave them that land kibra which means forest.so literally kibra is a Nubian land. All the way from jamhuri to langata.

Please know that he does NOT represent all Kenyans. His behavior was deplorable. He was greedy, unethical, and is a quintessential thief! I also hate that every other person was asking for a handout. I'm Kenyan, and I'm sorely ashamed to see this. I hope you can visit other places where people are well mannered and have a better experience in the future.

    Golden rule of street survival is to ask the price before purchasing. Everyone was complicit there because no one stepped in to intervene. That's the sad part for me. If anyone walks by there, be sure to drop in and shame Bernard Obiero. He's not a kenyan son.

    Yves was kind enough to share his fish and tomatoes with the dude and he had the audacity to turn around and rip him off. Also, good job on telling those bums chewing on the street to get a job. Why is it when we see a white person we assume that he has money and start begging? What a shame mama africa what a shame. It really bothered me to see this and made me feel super angry.
    Good thing you are a patient man Yves.

    Bonjour Yves, je suis originaire de Djibouti, pas loin de l'Ethiopie et du Kenya,
    Je tenais d'abord à te remercier pour tes vidéos, nous voyageons à travers ta chaine RUclips.
    Mais je voulais rebondir sur un moment de la vidéo où je me suis vraiment senti mal à l'aise, lorsque les habitants se servaient de la nourriture dans ton assiette, je trouvais qu'ils profitent de ta gentillesse. Encore le fait de partager le repas avec la jeune fille est une expérience amusante, c'est un moment de partage, de convivialité, et d'échange au contact des locaux qui est assez intéressant pour la vidéo, mais lorsque le vendeur et un passant à côté se servent dans ton assiette c'est insupportable. Et ensuite le vendeur qui a l'audace d'augmenter le prix du repas je trouve cela irrespectueux et très indécent. Et puis à la fin de la vidéo le gars qui demande de lui payer un déjeuner, c'est énervant cette manie de demander de l'argent aux touristes.
    J'espère que tu pourras faire de belle rencontre par la suite avec des gens honnêtes pour contraster avec ces mauvaises expériences car tu es un gars sympathique. Tu es également le bienvenue à Djibouti si un jours tu prévois d'y passer.

    @rang3688 6 месяцев назад +25

    Yves, another brilliant video and sad 😢 to see that you were scammed. But what sets you apart from most European vloggers is your idealistic approach to life. When exploring different places, you genuinely connect with the local people, steering clear of a superficial feel-good mentality.
    In Nairobi, you not only explored its positive aspects but also delved into its less explored facets-an admirable approach that highlights Nairobi's multifaceted nature.
    Moreover, your historical insights shed light on the roots of contemporary global south problems, revealing their colonial origins. For instance, the presence of Nubians in Kenya can be traced back to colonial beliefs in Hamitic theories, asserting that valuable aspects in Africa were introduced by the Hamites, considered a branch of the Caucasian race on the continent.
    The British, following a strategy of racial and ethnic segregation, implemented a "divide and rule" perspective, allocating leadership positions and roles based on ethnicity. Nubians, Kemet, as well as present-day Somalis, Ethiopians, and Kenyans of the Swahili Coast, were favored over other black communities, following Indians and Whites in the hierarchy.
    The influx of Indians and Nubians, brought in as indentured laborers for trains and policing/military roles respectively, shaped the demographic landscape. Consequently, areas like Parklands became home to many Indians, Eastleigh to the Somali community, and Majengo to Swahili Coast people.

Thank you for sharing your experiences with the public. I like these travel videos because they are really authentic. You are living the life of daily adventures what I am dreaming about. What I ask me sometimes is how do you financiate your adventures? Working as a digital nomad is one possible option but you are not a digital nomad as it seems in your videos. Maybe you could answer me this question if you see this comment. That would be really cool. With the right strategy maybe one day I also have enough freedom to travel to many countries.

    After watching this,I realized that our greed for money makes us loose potential customers, it's so sad that even after being given ksh.500(which is 13 times the price of ugali),he still goes ahead to boldly demand for more money, the vendor should have used this opportunity to promote his business online rather than surcharge the white guy, sometimes you just sit back & regret some things

Then he turned around and eat some of your fish and vegetable and have the nerve to charge you 1000 shillings for ugali. This is such a turn off for me and many others watching, so now visiting Kenya that is one place I have no interest in going. I understand people are poor but that is no reason for being dishonest.
