Inside a South African suburb with Kenyan names
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 11 сен 2024
- South Africa’s Sunninghill suburb has most of its streets and roads named after Kenyan towns and other places. The origins can be traced back to the mid-1900s, when the country was under colonial rule. Kenya and South Africa have since become strong trade partners and allies. To unveil more on these names, CGTN's Julie Scheier visited Sunninghill and filed this report

Kanyans and Kenya as a country are loved here in SA because they have respect they are not involved in criminal activities they are just good citizens they represent their country with dignity so how can anyone not love those people and their beautiful country.
Do you watch Jim Nduruchi
@@irenedavo3768 "Irene" if you do not stop this stupidity of posting these comments. You're going to see fire. I promise you
Thanks Boss
Even in S Africa alot of people are hard working 💪,Honest,kind and very helpful 👍.
Infant in South Africa 🇿🇦you have Everything apart from Sea(Indian Ocean),Water,Minerals/Gemstones from Gold,Diamond,Manpower, Big Land(Millions of Hectares),Dairy Farming and Agricultural farms .
You should be Self reliable instead of waiting 2 be employed.
Our lands in Kenya are not mostly fertile compared to South Africa but we're developing to cultivate and plant Even if your land is small(Chinese style)-Cheaper and affordable esp to Poor people.
Why get employed while you can be Boss yourself?
We appreciate y'all. Thank you.
Shouth Africa needs to work together with other Afrikan
South Africa is rich in raw materials, gold and diamonds
But Nigeria, Kenya got natural petroleum gas ⛽ we need each other.
Criminals why do born Criminals 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤩🤩🤣???
Kenyans and South Africans are cousins. They seem to have that unexplained natural connection and both suffered white brutality and the whites loved both countries as settler colonies because of their beauty. The difference is that Kenya became freer and managed to shake off the whites much earlier than SA did.
Yes so true, in my experience overseas in college. The Kenyans and Ghanaians would sympathize a lot and knew more about SA than most. They have become my dearest friends and family.
Indeed. Black South Africans sound a bit like Luhyas in Kenya when they speak English. Some of our lingual similarities (Zulu/Swahili/Luhya)... Amapiano = mapiano, hamba = amba, nawe = nawe, wena = wewe, Indlovu = ndovu, inyama = inyama, imbuzi = imbusi, lakho - lako, yetu = yetu, ulimi = ulimi, umfundi = mfundi and many more!
One time I thought I was having a stroke. I was watching what I thought was a Kenyan cartoon and it seemed like I was slipping into moments of incoherence lol. It took me about 5 seconds of going WTF?? to realize It's a language I don't speak... Zulu lol
True 👍Boss
We suffered the same.
Our history is well documented and we lived side by side I mean Christians and Muslims as we had peace throughout until today.
Africa is a sleeping Giant.
Time for us ...
Have a nice weekend Guys

Very true 👍Boss
Alot of similarities as we have many common things not only in languages ,food,culture,Religion. Etc
Everyday you can see on the streets of Kenya from the streets of Kenya from the Coast (Mombasa to Nairobi to kisumu and all the corners of Kenya 🇰🇪we're having Dialogue between Muslims and Christians.
In Governorment we have Men,Women,Muslims,Christians,Hindus and a few Jews as well work together holding posts of Governors,Senators,MP,s,Women Reps,MCA,s ,Chiefs etc.
I think South Africa and Ghana is almost the same.
@@daniells71 The accents have strong similarities. I keep saying that
here in kenya we have many place named also from soweto....thank families from south
Wow that's cool.
There is a place called Soweto in Nairobi.

Africa was a family, and we need to have a family reunion.
Where?
Very true 👍Boss
Africa needs to unite
Europe,Americas ?Asia and Middle East are uniting.
Its time 4 Africa the Sleeping Giant to wake up and we start
Uniting
Om East Africa community we have already started in East and Central Africa-
Tanzania,Kenya,Uganda,Rwanda,Burundi,South Sudan and DRC(Democratic of Congo)
Others are on their way in joining
Malawi,Somalia,Zambia,Ethiopia etc
That's our main goal 👏
So true. Well put. I think we need to start reunion festivals or something else that plants the idea of a reunion
I’ve seen him on taiyo aina chanel
Nice piece
Also remember that areas like Eldoret and Nyandarua had been reserved for Afrikaners settlers from Transvaal. The local Van Riebeck schule is now known as Ndururumo High School.
Wasn't this the time of Angloboer war in the 19th century when the British were fighting the boers and pushed them farther north to Namibia, and some to Zimbabwe and Kenya. Then when the British left SA after the 2nd world War, the boers came back full swing and introduced their disgusting apartheid system.
Wonderful
Nice one 👍
SPEAK!!TELL THEM!!-
@musa4747 BANTU FIRST, NGUNI FIRST, stand NO PIDGINIZATION of BANTU LANGUAGES! REMAIN PROUDLY BANTU-NGUNI.T here are 3 strands of BANTU people's;
1) the NUBA Bantu=North of the Equator. NUBA comes from nyumba, N(Y)U(M)BA=HOME, therefore "of SAME HOUSE"
2)the KUBA=Equatorial Bantu from East Africa coast to Mauritania WesrAfrican Atlantic coast along the Equator. Kuba comes from KÚÚBA-as CREATOR, hrnce the continent is called ITURI(meaning place of MAKING/ hence from where all the BANTU were CREATED/MADE...
3)the LUBA= South of the Equator, the NGUNI group. LUBA comes from RÍÚBA, the POTTERS CLAY, therefore the BANTU are a people CREATED(KÚÚBA) or MADE(ITURI-) from POTTERS CLAY.
ALLthree words are KÚÚBA NYÚÚBA ya RÍÚBA-meamung to CREATE A HOUSE OF POTTERS CLAY!---Hencevthese three called themselves BANTU, WHICH comes from AVANTU VA ITÚ, meaning OUR(va ITÚ---aa ITÚ- hence ITÚ- RI"OUR MAKER)-PEOPLE(ADÚ(people)-rendered in dialects as bantú=vantú=WATU)...so Bantu means PEOPLE OF THE SAME PATRIARCH-(Gen 5:4"...OTHER sons& daughters of Adam& Eve), like JAPHETH is the FATHER of Oriental Asians, HAM the father if INDO(Cushites-EUROPEANS(Canaanites) Egyptians(Mizraim, Misri) and Vandals(Tunisia, Libya)&-&- SHEM the father of Semitics, Jews and Arabs-(mingled people's=CAIN(+neanderthals&denisovans-hence straight and colourful hair& eyes)+SETH=NOAH)...
in fact they've even caused the BANTU to WORSHIP them as "MU**NGU" a word derived from an indigenous Bantu Kikuyu word for "GUN(ngú-firesparks from fireWOOD"Ngú"-- POWER, hrnce the pidgin Swahili word for "God" "MU**NGU" comes from the Bantu word, MÚ-thú-NGÚ-meaning ENEMY GUN MAN!!-adopted across the continent as MU-lu-NGU, MU-zu-NGU, MU-h-NGU; MU-ru-NGU...etc causing Swahili speaking people to LITERALLY WORSHIP the WHITES & ARAB slave master, colonizers LITERALLY "as God"-(read Ezek 28:2!) since they call upon this FAKE "God"--the "ENEMY GUN MAN"- MÚ-thú-NGÚ, as "God"="MU**NGU"-!! This is how TERRIBLE this pidgin Swahilination is!-causing BANTU to WORSHIP the NOAHIDE CREATURE as "God" instead of the CREATOR-MUUMBA which is the correct word for the CREATOR of the Universe if Swahilination wants to worship the TRUE CREATOR!...that's why PanAfricanism is this WORSHIP of this pidgin NOAHIDE FAKE "God"=MU**NGU mwenye nguvu-muweza yoote....meaning...."enemy gun man"(MÚthúNGÚ) who is OMNIPOTENT (mueza yoote!!....
So this continent of the BANTU, called ITURI- "so-FAKEnamed-"Africa" urgentlyNEEDS to DECOLONIZE the LANGUAGE and cultures from antrho-ethnographic shenanigans of NOAHIDE WORSHIP!!....Scottish Rite who are same as SA WHITES colonize Kenya to this day thru the Kikuyu-Maasai nexus!!!....
Africa should get payback on Britain.

There's a ghetto in Nairobi called Soweto

After working in Asia in different organizations,education institutions,companies and in major international airports,i came to see something very amaizing but rather shocking.Almost all asians and whites know kenya and majority have either visited,have relatives there or are planning to visit.

Africa is a special place in which it's blessed 🙌in everything in terms of great History,all the Natural resources available,great welcoming people and so on...
That's why the West(Mzungu/Mzungus) and the East will never leave Africa until they have Extracted the Most of what they can take.
We have the products but they put up the Price of the Products and whom to Sell to as well as whom not to Sell too!
Their Enemies are not Our Enemies.
Good example is 🇷🇺 Russia at the Moment(When the West Invade other countries it's OK but others it's Wrong)- Double standard Hypocrites.
Countries like Turkey 🇹🇷can work with Africa on many fields as they have No strings attached on Contracts(No Dodgy deals or Bias conditions).

If only the whole of Africa could learn Swahili .. it would be so great to have 1 common language 😍

We also have South African names in Kenya, Malindi in particular. We have a neighbourhood named Soweto in Malindi, Kenya. I think also the name of the town "Malindi" is a South African.
thats interesting because soweto is just an abbreviation for South West Townships
lindi is swahili for a harbour bro.
Malindi existed long before SA did and was still called Malindi
@@theturkanabus3610 he's saying that theres a neighbourhood in malindi named soweto. not that malindi is a south african name
@@TheTororist that's not what their last statement implys
Seems like there's a connection between Kenya and South Africa ,it's time they learn swahili
No. We don't want Swahili. Keep your language to yourself.
Yeah of course Boss
I think that's important bcoz Kenya and South Africa are very close we have alot big Connections as BROTHER Mulema said. In East and Central Africa we really Respect South Africa for Fighting Apartheid 👏.
It's time now to join together and help each other.
Mzungus does not like 2 see Us United but they Do Divide and Rule!.

Lovely to see the naming of the streets. However there are plenty of misnomers and clunkers: NKURU. DUKANA. LIMUR. CUMZIKO. MARAWI for MIWANI? And many more. Perhaps it’s time to straighten out these mistakes.

Yes
Alot of similarities between S Africa and East Africa.
Almighty God is the Greatest.
Infact S African countries are Rich in Natural Resources from Oil,Gas,Minerals than many parts of Africa that's why Mzungu cannot leave you alone .
Use your lands wisely and be Self sufficient so that you can educative our Communities.

The African Sleeping Giant.
Add Nkuru (Nakuru?), Dkana? 4 Dukani, Kamau, Tana, Cumziko 4 Pumzika?,
South African farmers settled in Uasin Gishu. They are one of the reasons the plan to resettle European Jews in Kenya failed. Kenya and South Africa are like long-lost brothers. A lot of things shared over the years - good and bad. Since South Africa became visa-free for Kenyans, there are hundreds of Kenyans hitting the road to SA as tourists weekly.
I'm in Johannesburg now, I can tell you South Africans don't love Africans. Mjichunge.
Why do you say that ?
You mean theybdont love themselves too?
Lived there for 6 year's...I think there are different people in South Africa kuna those who do but most don't

lets not forget kenya had boers too but they were no match to british aristocrats having 24 hr parties. also the anglo dutch war in SA made them to not to fit. they had to go back to SA. we have some of their churches in western kenya. some may have taken these names back

The reality is that Kenya was apartheids strongest supporter in Africa and assisted in the hunting down of ANC activists in east Africa. Im surprised that south Africans don't know this
There is no Evidence of that as kenya is always supportive of their Brothers/Sisters in South Africa. We have never Betrayed our Black Freedom Fighters from Africa even in South Africa 🇿🇦.
You got that wrong and it's mere Propaganda to Spoil kenya's Name(Maybe Western Media outlets)
Please be assured that nothing of the sort happened before and will happen.

Other countries are planning to join us are- Malawi,Mozambique,Sudan,Somalia,Ethiopia,Comoros etc.
We in Kenya 🇰🇪and most of East African countries love to preserve,maintain and protect our Culture,Traditions,Religion and customs so that we know Our History according to our knowledge and information we gathered from our African People from all walks of life Rather than taking from Mzungus and Colonialists.
Mostly their History was about Europe/America with too much False/Wrong information.
Example is that they said Victoria from 🇬🇧 UK discovered Lake Victoria while African people were living there before she came to Africa.
2nd -Christopher Columbus discovered America while the
They said Christopher Columbus discovered America while the Red Indians were living in America before Christopher Columbus(Mzungus)came to America.
3rd The Black Aborigins in Australia lived in Australia before the Mzungus(European whites)went to Australia.
They injected them with Drugs and took most of their lands as only a few of them are left outside all the big cities mainly.
4th Before we had conolial names given to countries and cities but changed later on
Eg Rhodesia now Zimbabwe 🇿🇼 and up to now many towns/cities have Mzungu(British,Dutch,French)names. Eg Windhoek.
ok
Please be Aware that kind of Malicious Allegations and untruthful statements are very dangerous. Kenyans and Kenya 🇰🇪 Government have never been involved with such activities. They will shocked such statements coming from our Brother/sister. We love South Africa 🇿🇦 and South Africans for sure 👌. And ANC are Our brothers and sisters and true Freedom Fighters 🙌 just like the MauMau in Kenya 🇰🇪.
If Malema realised that Kenya were doing business with Apartheid Regime of South Africa while other African countries were sanctioning the Regime would ask the ANC government to change those streets names.
