    Am not a Kenyan but I feel like one.... Love your videos, they remind me on my visits to Nairobi, one of the most beautiful places on Earth. I've seen many parts of Nrb, and there's always a conclusion in my head, why such a large city can't build a public transportation system based on subways, trains, trams, public buses owned by the City Government etc. Because it's the most important thing for a big city. Also, sidewalks, cycling tracks, underground cables .... All the best from EU

      Yes yes yes to all these recommendations. I am grateful more Nairobians are demanding more walkable areas in Nairobi. In fact in CBD around the I&M bank they have replaced a lot of parking space for pedestrian pathways and built walkways between roads

    One thing I have learned is that in this life you can choose to wear a victim mentality and complain about everything and bad governance or you can choose to get up go out start somewhere and hustle make your life easier, life is short to wait for delivery at your door step. I have a friend who makes 1500 just from selling porridge, you complain while others are buying homes cars going for holiday in Europe.. Hii life sio rehearsal if no one is making it happen for you swallow your pride make it happen for yourself...those mkokoteni guys in Nairobi cbd one of the told me he make 2k to 3k a day..

      Josephine kagali, kenyans have it good but they don't see it. I wish the citizens would change their attitude and keep the city clean, have courtesy particularly on the roads. Our politicians are corrupt but if wananchi did their small part,it would make a difference.

      @@rubysailor9186 Keeping the city clean is important for Public Health reasons. Take pride in your country and invest in green space. Creating green space can help improve people's moods and mental healths. Why do you think the biggest cities in the world like London, NYC, Tokyo have parks. Educate the people in public health and invest in your people. Change does not happen from the outside it happens within and that includes educating the people regardless of their social class and providing them work.
