  1. This was thrilling to watch and you captured the journey well. Now my biggest problem is the whining nature of Kenyans, we are too cynical of everything. Yes, governments are seldom liked anywhere in the world even when they do great things for their populations. The SGR was constructed in a record 3-4 years, from Mombasa to Nairobi, a distance of 500km. It was to replace the snail pace train otherwise called the Lunatic express that was just an eyesore and a drainer for the exchequer. The SGR was constructed to haul containers and transport people quickly obviously to leverage on efficiencies, economy etc. Much is talked of the cost of SGR but mostly it is just politics. Everything has a price but I choose to look at the bigger picture. SGR is a wise investment and it will pay for itself in the long run since it is a long term project.

  2. Bro, you missed out on the real nightlife, you should always try 3-4 places or better yet have someone conversant with the party scene to take you around. Oyster Bay is nice but a bit bougie. If you had stayed where you were in Sankara Westlands, you'd have been spoilt for choice for the number of night spots available. I'm also surprised it took you that long to find a sim card in Kenya. Literally every Safaricom shop has sim cards unless you had not carried your passport with you to register one. Next time have a to do list with names of places and activities you want to do and it would be much easier to navigate around with a trusted, knowledgeable local around. All the same, this was well packaged and shone a good light for our city of Nairobi. Welcome again.

  3. I would urge to do proper research before putting claims about places or people. The tired line of Kibera being the largest slum in Africa has long been debunked at least following the 2019 Kenya population census. The NGO world that exaggerate things to attract Western funding have long mischaracterised Kibera. From bogus claims of Kibera having 1 million inhabitants while the truth as per census is 170K. Kibera is also 2.5 km² in land size which accounts for 0.35% of Nairobi land area. All slums in Nairobi account for 0.9% of Nairobi, yes, less than 1%. As much as possible, endevour to report the correct information and in the right context. We have no issue with unbiased views (positive or negative) since all places have them, but we don't accept misrepresentations and mischaracterisations especially when some of these things can easily be verifiied.

  4. The way you have undersold and mischaracterised this city is just mind boggling. One month and this is all you came up with? Funny how many African Americans love it here, it just goes to show you how people see things differently. Also, apart from the giraffes at the giraffe centre, you never showed anything else. No sights and sounds, people, infrastructure, city skyline, shopping malls - nothing. This was such a poor take and very underwhelming. Good bye!
    47
  5. If you understand the geography of Africa, that should have been obvious. 4 hours to Jo'burg, 5 hours to Dubai, 5 hours to Lagos, 8 hours to London, 3 hours to Delhi. Nairobi is strategically located and that'a why it's a major hub for Africa travel.

  8.  @kandanda  No one said government is in the business of making money but when it comes to provision of public goods and services only the government has the capacity to provide them in large scale for the people. The investment needed for such infrastructure is so expensive that if private players were to engage in it, then you will pay an arm and a leg for those goods and services since they have to recoup their money and markup. That's why the world over critical services and goods (public utilities) meant for public use are provided by the government, inefficiencies notwithstanding.

  9. Good points.

  10. @padmasalam5267  I saw a video or two of them in SA, I think Jo'burg and Cape Town and I actually once commented that he should come to Nairobi and forgot all about it. The algorithm sent me to his channel today and was excited to watch. Bit after watching the video I was aghast at how badly he sold our city whilst showing nothing. I find it hard to believe how other AA's enjoy this city and how bad a take he had on it. Hopefully the algorithm will send this to many Kenyans so that he can learn from Kenyans on how not to misrepresent their country and pretty much poo poo on it. Thanks for your feedback, I now get it. I can see gray hair on their heads, clearly it ain't wisdom but petulance.

  11. Kileleshwa, Lavington, Kilimani are at best upper middle class areas and a few affluent people live here as well. The rich live in exclusive mansions in Muthaiga, Karen, Runda, Kitisuru and other exclusive enclaves of Nairobi.
    12
  12. Well said Faith. People say the dumbest things and reinforce stereotypes. And these are Kenyans nonetheless.

  13. That was really torture, I felt your frustration 😂😂😂. The easier way is not to engage and just ignore. He would have given up in no time.

  14. Take the prices with a pinch of salt. I'm not sure how he arrived at the prices. But there are prices in Nairobi that fits any pocket.

  18. These ladies don't know Nairobi. Kilimani is an upper middle class area dominated by tall apartments. Rich areas in Nairobi don't have don't have apartments and are very exclusive. Find better guides for Nairobi.

  20. So much negativity and always spoiling with useless politics. Wait for a vlog of politics to bring the negative energy out.

  21. 😂😂😂. At least he gave him an idea for content creation

  22. The Kenyan lady doesn't know her city unfortunately. Seems like she was just saying what came in her mind. You left Kenyatta Avenue and veered off to Moi Avenue and she said it was still Kenyatta Avenue. She said KICC is the tallest building in Kenya while in reality it is not even top 10. Itvgas not been tallest since 1997 when Times Tower took over. Britam towers in Upper Hill district is the tallest at more than 200 metres. Nairobi is a Maasai word meaning a place of "cool waters" since that is what Maasai to it as. As an East African you will be charged same price as Kenyans and so there's no need not to identify yourself when you go to KICC. Next time find someone knowledgeable about their city/country.

  24. This was one crazy video 😂😂😂. You are one daring fella. I was laughing through it though. Watu wa Mombasa mna mambo lakini 😂😂😂

  25. And SAns think you are joking. I watched this and I was like then Kenya is not badly off unless there are other areas better than what has been shown. And where I think Kenya has an edge over these properties is the greenery. These places are lush but Kenya's rich neighbourhoods are enveloped with trees, it's like homes built in the forest. Apart from Waterfall which gives Beverly Hills vibe, the others are not particularly better than what I see in Nairobi's rich neighbourhoods.
    4
  26. ​​ @limpopoRiver Why do SAns think nothing exists outside of SA in Africa? At the start of the video he showed number of millionaires in Africa and Nairobi was 4th in that list, shouldn't that tell you something?
    4
  27.  @sekatimangena2671  And who said we are competing? A Kenyan in the comments made a comparison and I chimed in. Are we not supposed to comment because the video is about SA even though we follow Steve who has been to Kenya and did the same video on real estate? Get real people and get out of your feelings.

  28. Your next stop should be Nairobi, Kenya. It would probably give Jozi, Atlanta vibes as well but it is not a sprawling city like Jozi. Most of the city dwellers live within the urban core. Plenty of AirBnB's, highrises, restaurants, night clubs and lounges, hustle and bustle and 100% melanated. Worth checking it out.

  29. He is a low life traveling on the cheap and misrepresenting a city that he can hardly afford to live in. Such a waste of space.

  32. You didn't do your homework before going to Rwanda. It is a police state with intelligence cops and sentries all over the city keeping guard. Yes, it is very clean, very organized but it just feels souless. The lady captured it well, a lot of unemployment and much is sweeped under the carpet. I've been there, so I know it.

  33. I'm sure someone recommended that to him and probably a lady who wanted to be taken there 😂

  34. Copy that. Many share your sentiments. Welcome.

  35. I hear this a lot. So there has to be similarities.
    3
  36. So you don't get love from East Coast? Where exactly because 100% Kenyans are very hospitable and the AA's who are here don't wanna leave. Don't tell lies just because you came to Africa with a preconceived notion. I will agree with you though on the point of sharing similarities with South Africans about segregation, discrimination and race relations in general and its impact on the socio-economic outlook. The two AA's and SAns can empathise on many aspects
    3
  37. @KoolE23  You responded like you were hurt. You didn't find somebody to feed your ego in KE like you thought. Well, tonnes of Black Americans loving it here and they never wanna go anywhere else. Don't take my word for it, look them up they are all over YouTube. Waste of space!

  41.  @GengeMauMau  Wewe maumau fake tutolee ujinga hapa. Kamlambe matako huko, kwani hauna macho na akili? What is there to see on this video? Show the chaos, the poverty if that is what he wants to show.
    3
  42. @bellaolum9768  But these guys haven't showed anything. What did you watch here? He just went to Giraffe centre, took shots of JD at the counter and sat in Karura to rant and misrepresent Nairobi. At least show us the so-called chaos, the poverty and all things they didn't like to back his claims and not rant. These are the first AA's I've encountered that look and talk weird especially the big "baby" man.
    3
  43.  @limpopoRiver  Did I say they were? All I know is that lushness/greenery go a long way in determining property prices. Of course this goes over your head!
    3
  44.  @wahwah7701  You could be a rich country or city but that wealth is concentrated in the hands of a few. This is true of most capitalistic countries like SA and even Kenya. It is a fact that white South Africa controls majority of wealth in SA and I'm sure they are the majority living in those luxurious exclusive neighbourhoods/estates. In the USA, top 1% of rich people own 42% of the wealth. Mostly ordinary people are just used as workers/labourers for the owners of capital. So yes, Jo'burg is the richest city in SA and Africa but that wealth is concentrated in the hands of a few. It has nothing to do whlith it being 80% black. Majority of that 80% of black population just provides labour and its share of wealth is negligible.

  50. ​​ @TheYarbros  Offend who? If you thought you would offend anyone through your videos, why talk about it? Or you thought talking about it will be less offensive? Does that even make sense? Did you also think showing all the good stuff and there's plenty of that would also be offensive and decided to not show as well? The more I read you, the more you prove you are NUTS!
    2
  51. A stunning city no doubt. But I'd only visit there but never live. The racial disparities in the socio-economic spheres is palpable if not obvious. I'd want to live in a city that has an African vibe and not necessarily European. Beautiful city but leaves a bad taste in the mouth.
    2
  52.  @qhawenxele8032  Yeah Jozi has more of African feel though Sandton again is where the white man escaped to. I'd definitely choose Jozi over Cape Town if I was to settle there.

  53.  @daPhenomenal  hahaha you are joking now. Show me another major city in the world with a national park. As for beauty, Nairobi tops Lagos by far. And let's not even compare the rest of Kenya to Nigeria. You are joking!

  56. Continue pandering to them until they say something you don't like.

  57. @bliss252  You can kiss their a$$ all you want, but show me on the video about their claims. Listening to an old man ranting actin' a fool is not my idea of a vlog. Show us the chaos, the poverty, at least back up your claims and don't misrepresent the city. You fall for misrepresentation and I don't. Also don't give me lame advise, I've said what I've said and it won't change.

  58.  @KoolE23  We want you to stay there and don't show up in Kenya again. We appreciate those who want to be here.

  59. Blessed to have mortgages that you slave for the rest of your life and that costs an arm and a leg? Mortgage is only a good thing if it is priced right and doesn't go beyond 10-15 years. In most of Africa, it is almost unaffordable for the majority and people buy land and build their homes. There's no one way of owning a home.

  68.  @duduville  So what did he show about the city? Let him show all those things you have said. Sitting in a forest ranting showing nothing and you are supporting that nonsense. Have some sense of pride even if you hate your city. We all know the city can do so kuch better but don't allow him to misrepresent it. Don't kiss a$$, think!

  69.  @industryagain  So what did he show? Giraffes, taking shots and sitting in Karura ranting? Is that a fair balance?
    2
  70.  @retsenateng  Thank you, you understood me. I think the video should have also shown the suburbs with their greenery because all it says is where the super rich live in Jozi and I wondered then Kenya rich neighbourhoods aren't badly off if these were the best of SA. In Kenya, rich neighbourhoods like Muthaiga (old money) and Karen, Runda (new money) are basically forested homes for the amount of tree cover in those suburbs, you can barely see the homes unless you fly a drone which is also not allowed. What is shown in this video we call them in Kenya gated communities.
    2
  71.  @sekatimangena2671  Nairobi and Jozi have pretty much the same weather/climate. They are both subtropical though Nairobi is nearer the equator and maybe a bit warmer. Also Nairobi and Jozi have the same elevation of more than 1700 m. The south/south east of Nairobi is more savannah like and the north/West is more lush with greenery.
    2
  72.  @limpopoRiver  Show me where I said that. Again, I will never say you are better than Kenya in anything. Of course you are more richer, more developed and I don't think that means necessarily better. On the same breath, you have the most inequality, among highest in the world, crime infested with 27,000 murders in a year, highest GBV, highest unemployment, half the population on grants, white dominated economy with blacks at the periphery of the economy etc. So you still want me to say SA is better than Kenya?
    2
  73.  @limpopoRiver  Which Indians and Whites own Kenya? Don't run away from the fact that Whites own SA's economy. Apart from a few Indian industrialists, the rest of the economy is in the hands of black Kenyans. Real estate, retail market, agroeconomy and agriculture, banks and Saccos, other financial institutions, private schools and universities etc. Can you say the same for SA? Absolutely NO! What is preventing you from speaking about Kenya? Say anything I'll be here to confirm or debunk any lie. What I have enumerated about SA is true that's why you haven't denied anything.
    2
  74.  @viriacssa2003  By the way, only 6% of Nairobi land area is slums, go figure!
    2
  75.  @wahwah7701  It's not about what you think but facts on the ground. SA is a capitalist economy run by private enterprise, it is not government run. The government governs and provides public goods and services, it does not run the economy but only regulates parts of it. Isn't it the reason why Malema and his EFF wants to nationalise some parts of the economy because the wealth is concentrated in what he calls "white monopolistic capital"?

We don't mind people not liking it here but don't misrepresent or mischaracterise our city. Old folks but behaving like tots.

  88. The fascination about the markets/business and not the people is wrong headed on all fronts. Yes, markets matter but people matter even more. The white SAns oligarchs should stop with the scaremongering and let the government uplift people's welfare. Keeping people perpetually in poverty and with no prospects is a bigger genie than just spooking the markets. Hopefully, EFF or MK will go into a coalition with ANC and bring about changes in the material reality of the impoverished masses. Let the markets sway whichever way, they'll find an equilibrium.

  89. I was looking for this comment. Public goods are best provided by governments even if we allow for a few inefficiencies as is the nature with government. Provision of public goods by private sector can only mean increased prices as private businesses are for profit companies. The investment required is huge for private sector and it has to charge a premium to recoup its investment and get a return. It's a catch-22 for SA. There's a reason public goods are provided by governments because government can afford the outlays and they are not run for profit but service provision. It will be interesting to see how this pans out.

  95. Where do you get these ladies who misrepresent Kenya and have no idea about their country? Sarit centre is an old mall that has been in existence since 1983 but has also been expanded recently, it is not a rich man's mall but a mall that everyone goes to. Westlands is not a rich man's area, it is a mixed use neighbourhood of commercial and residential properties and mostly houses upper middle class Kenyans. The lady doesn't even understand what air conditioners are she is just saying a "cool atmosphere" in the mall when it is hot outside. If you are going to speak about a place, at least do your research or find someone knowledgeable about their country instead of someone who embarrasses themselves or their country/city.

  100.  Mr Lboogie 🇳🇬  you are out of your mind. Even Mali and Burkina Faso have held AFCON yet they are dirt poor. Yes, the government did not prioritise AFCON and that's why Kenya did not host it. You have nothing in terms of tourism, don't even go there. You produce oil but you don't have enough fuel in your petrol stations, a country that runs on generators including the airport! Naira has fallen so much in value that 1 kenya shilling is now equal to 5 Nairas. Nairobi ranks as a global city ahead of all Nigerian cities, check out Gawk rankings. The only thing that Nigeria boasts of is its big population. When you land at the airport in Lagos, what you see is shanties and poor neighbourhoods from the sky. The giant of Africa is a giant only by population. Try and visit Kenya if you can afford it then give us your comparisons.

  104.  Demi Khay 🇳🇬  why are you discounting the fact that Nigeria's population is what makes its economy and all other things big.

I am only here to set the record straight and to answer to those who want to belittle Kenya vis a vis Nigeria.

Of course google will tell you anything because there are many sources about Kibera and a lot of it is wrong. Even after giving you official source, facts about population and size of Kibera you still chose to be lazy instead of fact checking me. Don't be like the "white saviors" who misrepresent Africa for selfish and nefarious intentions. Be better or shut the hell up.

And yes even Lagos vibe is infectious with all its problems. Maybe SA reminded you so much about America including the race disparities in everything and you got confused. Why would you leave America to experience another America in Africa? That's kind of mediocre thinking, don't you think so?

  113.  @richardray2680  That's why you should really think before writing. Calling it a small city is false for all intents and purposes. There are cities organised around its urban core like NYC and Nairobi and sprawling cities like Jo'burg. New York City has more packed in its urban core than probably any other city in the world. And guess what has more inhabitants than Jo'burg. Nairobi is pretty much same population with Jo'burg. Lagos is just a big mess and not worth compared to Nairobi. These guys will just have to go back to SA because no other city in sub-sahara Africa outside of SA will be comparable to Nairobi.

  116. Facts. Such things don't impress me much. Living an ostentatious life removed from everybody else is not particularly a happy one. It only confirms disparity of wealth and unequal nature of society. Maybe just good to know how the ultra rich live and their lifestyles.

  117. The more I watch people chest thumping and calling Ruto all sorts of names for misplaced hate and lies that hold no water, the more my resolve to vote for him in 2027. Whoever you are going to pick let's meet in 2027. And also remember no one can be president with no political party, grassroots connections, candidates for MP's governors, senators, MCA's and money. I wish you all luck. Ruto tena.

  119.  @johndoe-er3qi  Let's watch the video, show what you are talking about, don't sit in a forest and rant misrepresenting the country. You think someone being here for one month has a better take of the city than me who was born and raised here. Also a good video is a balanced video. He showed nada on this video, he just ranted and acted petulant for annold man. There are a lot of negative Nairobi videos, go bingewatch them now that you hate Nairobi being colpared with the finest in the world. You are lame to think that misrepresentation is OK.

  120. Thanks for pointing it out and I am glad you noticed. I don't know what his attentions are, but he hasn't showed anything other than Giraffe centre and Karura forest. He was pretty much lamenting all through about Nairobi. We clearly don't need these kind of visitors. Let him bounce back to Cape Town where he feels he belongs among white people.

  124.  @duduville  Grow up and don't bring your assumptions of whether I've traveled or not. Gaborone, Windhoek are tiny cities that shouldn't even be mentioned next to Nairobi and there's nothing in those cities to rival Nairobi on anything. Greenery in Nairobi alone make those desert cities pale in Nairobi's shadow. I am well aware of what ails Nairobi; I am in forums where I complain a lot about Nairobi and mediocrity of its leadership, so spare me the advise, I am well ahead of the curve and I make my concerns known to relevant authorities. Now tell me, what did you watch on the video? Because I saw nothing other than Giraffe centre and a man ranting at Karura forest misrepresenting Nairobi. I have no problem him showing whatever he wants to show, just show it, don't narrate things that you are not showing. You are actually applauding him saying this is a city that needs humanitarian jobs more than anything else? Really? Complaining about 15 mbps data speeds which he can easily upgrade upto 1 gbps if he can afford it or ask his host to upgrade it. Ridiculing us not being the silicon savannah because he wants cheap data! You want me to clap for that garbage that came from his mouth? You can kiss a$$ all you want but I'll put him in the straight and narrow and let him know he doesn't undertand the city or even seen better side of it and there's plenty of that. I have been to 7 countries and I lived in Australia fo 5 years so just you know. Maybe you need to travel yourself and tell us what you are doing here if you prefer living elsewhere. Let this sink in your skull next time you reference me.

  125. @warengine3706  So you think you are the only one who's traveled outside of Kenya? Spare us your hubris and tell us what exactly you've watched on this video because all I see is a man ranting inside a forest! Maybe you think it's a flex indulging foreigners in negativity and misrepresentation, I don't. If you think this is an accurate representation of Nairobi, then you are also the problem.

  126.  @rubysailor9186  Go watch Residential Tourists, Auston Holleman, Kidgreatness etc, they are all African Americans who've been here multiple months and even over a year. They happen to be in the same city that is being misrepresented and you are here indulging this nonsense. All we are asking is don't misrepresent the city, tell all sides and even if one wants to show the downsides, at least do it don't talk about it. What's the vlog for? So according to you, you agree what stands out is that this is a place for humanitarian work? You agree with that mischaracterisation? Do better, I know people are attached to negativity and that's why you are indulging them.

  128. @our10picks18  You love negativity and see no good in anything, so I am not surprised this is your lane and you would love to indulge them in their misrepresentation of Nairobi. I'll ask you as well, what have they shown, what have you seen in this vlog? Let them show the chaos/mess, why they think the city needs humanitarian work etc. Don't rant inside Karura forest whilst showing nothing. If you agree with this mischaracterisation of Nairobi, then you are also the problem.
    1
  129. @saix81  You are also a stranger devoid on any facts about the city that's why you are OK with its misrepresentation. As a Kenyan, I'm here to put them on the straight and narrow instead of indulging them in their biased views. I am helping them, you are not.

  130.  @saix81  Even worse if you were born here. Don't encourage misrepresentation even if you hate your country or its leadership or whatever. Also don't police comments if you are not going to give a rebuttal of what I've stated.

  131. @saix81  Childishness is you being ignorant and thinking indulging in misrepresentation is maturity. Unlike you, I call out misinformation anywhere I see it. You should be ashamed of yourself for not knowing any better, at least they can be excused for being unseasoned in matters Nairobi/Kenya.

  132. One thing I would give Nairobi over Jo'burg on high end, rich neighbourhoods is greenery. From these videos I don't see trees though there is lushness. In Nairobi, the rich neighbourhoods are pretty much forested in lushness and you need a drone to even see them. Apart from Waterfall which gives Beverly Hill vibes, the other estates are not that different from what I see in rich Nairobi neighbourhoods.
    1
  133.  @sinabotshona7112  So world class estates only exist in SA? Do you know property prices in Nairobi are some of the most expensive in the world? When you live in your own bubbles, ignorance is the result.
    1
  134.  @leomamofokeng5104  First of all, I never said Kenya's real estate is better than SA's. All I said was based on what is shown in this video, Kenya 's rich neighbourhoods have more greenery/trees and apart from Waterfall the houses aren't that dissimilar from rich people houses here in Kenya. So stop crying as if you are rich yourself or own property there, we both don't. Personally, I care less about this ostentatious living of the rich, I am just pointing out the similarities and differences and yes Kenya's real estate is hot commodity and some property prices in Nairobi are as high as anywhere else in the world.
    1
  135.  @tnamr5652  Overpriced because you said so? Nairobi is nestled inland and at high altitude and in Kenya's highlands. It's nickname is the "green city in the sun", go figure. Nairobi is not Accra or Lagos that are port cities based around the ocean and sand. Actually Nairobi and Jozi are very similar in location and geography but your ignorant self believes nothing exists outside of SA in Africa. 2 years ago, the owner of this channel highlighted Nairobi real estate without the benefit of drone shots or being upclose in those neighbourhoods since they are very secured. He also did a comparison of Lagos and Nairobi real estate. For your information, some of the top neighbourhoods in Nairobi, that is, Muthaiga and Karen have 18 hole golf courses that host Kenya Open golf tournament every year and are part of European PGA tour with players from all over the world competing in it. Ignorance is no defence but a disease. Again, Nairobi property prices are some of the highest in the continent and the world.

  136.  @tnamr5652  If you only read to comprehend. Haven't I said based on what has been shown here? Or you are just quick to rebut? His own title says "Inside Jozi's most luxurious estates of the super rich", if you have a problem with what has been shown, take it up with him. I am only reacting to the video and nothing else.

  137.  @tnamr5652  Joburg is twice the size of New York but a dwarf to New York in everything, so don't even go there. Nairobi is same size as New York and its metro reaches other 4 neighbouring counties. I brought the issue of golf courses because it is also highlighted in this video for some of those neighbourhoods.
    1
  138.  @tnamr5652  A rich person is rich everywhere. At the beginning of the video, Nairobi is placed fourth in the list of dollar millionaires in Africa. They can all afford the same things regardless of where they live. Based on what is shown on the video, I don't see anything particularly outstanding from what I see in rich neighbourhoods here unless you mean SA is the standard which I don't think is necessarily the case.

  142.  @ienware  I never said Nairobi is more expensive than Jozi, probably Jozi is more expensive because it has a higher reputation than Nairobi in the greater scheme of things. My point was Nairobi is a top tier city in Africa with high property prices just like Jozi. As for what it offers in quality, its pretty much the same.
    1
  143.  @ienware  So are you disputing that Jozi is dwarf to New York? Are you people just arguing for the sake of it or you are actually this ignorant? Yes, Jozi is a big brother to Nairobi, I have not disputed that.
    1
  144.  @ienware  Is richness only valued by minerals? I bet minerals market is traded at higher volumes in New York stock exchange than it is in JSE. Also value is not only in minerals but also in other things as intangible as brands. The value of NYSE is higher than the GDP of the whole America economy, go figure!

  145.  @morganseopa199  And what do you know about my city? Do you know it better than us and all the expatriates and multinationals that have set up base here? In that list at the start of the video where is that Mokopane? Ignorance is a disease.
    1
  146.  @ienware  By size it is not, Jozi is actually bigger as it is a sprawling city. Nairobi is almost same size as New York in area. But even then, Jozi can't compete with New York in anything, they should stop these jokes.

  150.  @sekatimangena2671  Ask Stephen Nduku to do those videos not me, I am only reacting to what is depicted in this video. His caption of the video says where the super rich live in Jozi, it is not me who has said that. I don't need to travel to see anything, I can do it comfortably in the comfort of my home through videos on social media and google map. Again, I have traveled and lived in the developed world so I know what a rich country looks like. There are rich suburbs and estates all over Nairobi with natural greenery/canopy of trees. Nairobi itself is called the green city in the sun because of its lush vegetation complete with two natural forests and a huge national park within the city limits not to mention other green spaces. I don't doubt Jozi has some of the most expensive, luxurious real estate in Africa, all I said was based on what is depicted by the video, it is not necessarily out of the league of what I see in rich areas of Nairobi. The video is also about Jozi not Cape Town and personally for me I wouldn't be interested in a city that still feels like apartheid South Africa with its clear segregation of people based on race.
    1
  151.  @ntokozov8667  So what if they are 10 years old? Is what is depicted about them not factual? Stephen has teamed up with a SAn YouTuber who does real estate and I'm sure he is the one who has shown him around.

  152.  @sekatimangena2671  Kenyans will never be ashamed of their country, we are the most patriotic in all Africa our shortcomings notwithstanding. At least we don't live in a country where we feel like second class citizens with little ownership of the wealth. Even those expensive, luxurious suburbs are white dominated in SA. At least in Kenya, 99% of rich people in rich neighbourhoods are black Kenyans.
    1
  153.  @sekatimangena6640  Jozi is also bigger than a lot of international cities more famous and richer than Jozi. After all, Nairobi metropolitan area extends to 4 neighbouring counties only that it has fixed administrative boundaries. I am only reacting to what is shown in the video as the places where the super rich live in Jozi, not my word but the channel owner.
    1
  154.  @sekatimangena2671  You realise I am reacting to a video, it is not my video. As per the video, those are the estates or whatever you want to call them depicted as residences for super rich. It is not me saying that but the uploader of the video. By city size, Jozi is bigger than Nairobi but they have pretty much the same population number which means Nairobi is denser than Jozi. Jozi is a sprawling city, Nairobi is an urban core. As for the metro area, what is considered Nairobi metro in Kenya is not defined because Nairobi city which is also a county on its own, its metro region spills over to 4 other counties and taken together the 4 counties plus Nairobi has an area of 32,000 sq kilometres, roughly the size of Lesotho with 10M+ plus inhabitants.

Moscow is so cold I don't think I can live there plus it is a closed society politically speaking. Cape Town is stunning but the legacy of apartheid is too obvious plus too windy. By all standards, CT is one of the most beautiful cities in the world. But to answer your question, I still prefer my city Nairobi than all of them.

And the greenery in Nairobi's rich neighbourhoods beats what I have seen here. If you care to find out, the owner of this channel has done real estate in Nairobi and compared it to that of Lagos and he didn't even have the advantage of seeing the neighbourhoods upclose like he did in Jozi since most of the rich neighbourhoods don't allow flying of drones in their neighbourhoods. Check the video out instead of dismissing things off hand.

What has been shown in these pictures is not necessarily a preserve of SA, rich people and neighbourhoods exist everywhere.

  164.  @wahwah7701  You are talking of specifics and I am talking of generalities. Of course there are black SAns millionaires who have benefited through black empowerment programmes, government corruption and maybe a few from business. But majority of the millionaires and the top richest people are white SAns who are disproportionately owners of capital and wealth in SA. Majority of millionaires in Kenya are black Kenyans since there's insignificant white population in Kenya and their investments. In other words, majority of Kenyan wealth is by black Kenyans and that of SA is by white SAns.
    1
  165.  @wahwah7701  Black empowerment programmes, yes. But how many people has it benefited? Isn't the ANC being accused of corruption with those BEE programmes? Fact is, it has benefited a few trusted loyals like the Motsepe's and Ramaphosa's and their cronies with the vast majority of black SAns left out. Also remember, SA economy has stagnated in the last 10 years and even regressed in the Covid years. In that same time, Kenya's economy has doubled.

  168.  @moetikitso72  Take these concerns to the person who recorded this video. The fact that you are even bragging about Stellenbosch and what it represents just shows what sad a society SA is. For your information, Kenya's central rift valley used to be called "white highlands" during colonial period because it offered English countryside landscape. The Kenyan highlands with its sweeping tea farms and greenery looks very much like English countryside. You can always research and look it up since you can't afford to travel. You asked who wants to come to Kenya, well millions of tourists visit Kenya every year. What Cape Town doesn't have is some of the world's best beaches with white sand and warm water that Kenya and East Africa coast has in abundance. Sit down clown!

  169.  @Marysmmiiith  And who said we are concerned with you? If this video was not uploaded by Steven who I follow and has done a similar video about Kenya, I wouldn't be commenting here.

  172.  @Justampleboy  I'm glad you noticed but SAns here believe the best in Africa starts and ends with them. You are right the supporting infrastructure like access roads and orderliness seems better in SA neighbourhoods but the greenery in Nairobi is better and natural. Also places like Westlands and Upper Hill in Nairobi can rival that of Sandton and other business districts if they upgraded their infrastructure. But these people who have never left their countries live in their own bubbles.

  173.  @lungamadoda6992  What doesn't come close? You think what is depicted in this video is the best there is in SA? If it is, then I've seen better in Kenya.

  174.  @lungamadoda6992  First things first, don't call me honey, I'm not your man. Secondly, where is the infrastructure and architecture story coming in on a video about some rich people homes and their locales? If you cared to read through the thread and the comments, nowhere have I said we are more developed than SA, in fact I have conceded on that issue though that was not the point of the video. But since you want us to discuss countries, let's start with yours. SA with all its minerals and economic headstart is the most unequal country in the world, with the highest unemployment in Africa, with half of its population on government grants, with unparalleled crime and insecurity, highest gender based violence including rapes not to mention 17 years of loadshedding and counting. A country that is dominated economically and through land ownership by the white minority and a failing government in ANC. Kenya with zero minerals is the biggest economy in East and Central Africa, largest non mineral economy in Africa and its economy is largely owned by locals. Nairobi is a global city that was ranked the best in Africa and 12th in the world by expats in 2021. In the same survey Jo'burg was ranked last in Africa and 55/57 in the world, go figure! In 2024, Lonely Planet ranked Nairobi as the best city to visit in the whole world. Your ignorant selves think nothing exists in Africa outside of SA. I can tell you this for free, per capita, Kenyans are the most educated and probably more exposed than any country in Africa. You having been to Nairobi/Kenya doesn't validate or invalidate anything. I was in SA in 2011, I've lived in Australia for 5 years, been to more than 7 countries so when I write about something I know exactly what I am talking about. You can't tell me what development and infrastructure is, I've lived that life.

If we take this line of argument to its logical conclusion, black SAns will be embarrassed. So stop it.

  180.  @truesouth6532  You are talking of the few black elite that has benefited mostly through corruption under BEE programme? No wonder poor black SAns in their millions have rejected ANC because most of them are still trapped in abject poverty even after Apatheid. Remember you are the most unequal country in the face of the earth and with the highest unemployment in Africa even when you scream SA is rich. Black SAns need a reality check and not ride on riches that is domiciled in white minority hands.

  193. First of all, the customer service from KQ was horrible, they should have done a better job. As a Kenyan it saddens me to hear of the horror stories by passengers especially Africans of the treatment they get from airport staff - customs, immigration, cabin crew etc. The corruption and poor customer service have been flagged severally and something has to be done about this. They give the country a bad reputation especially because it is the first point of contact for travellers/visitors. Now as regards your issue, I trully feel you were a victim of circumstances. Ethiopian illegal immigrants have been using Kenya as a transit country on their way to SA. I've watched many times on news Ethiopians illegal immigrants found in houses somewhere in Nairobi, Mombasa etc. in their numbers plotting their way to SA. Obviously SA has flagged Kenya as a transit country and has possibly put strict/draconian policies for such instances. It could be the crew have firm instructions on how to handle such cases for specific nationalities especially first time visitors. That is not to say such instructions shouldn't be handled in a humane and considerate manner. I'm not sure they are at liberty to share that kind of information with individuals. All in all, this was unfortunate and I feel bad and sorry for you, I know I'd have ranted and gave them a piece of my mind if I was in your position. Africans need to do better and treat each other right, the rest of the world has already conspired against us.

  194. It's because it is in a merger with a Kenyan bank. But it is mid tier bank here in Kenya. Top 4 banks in Kenya are local banks with Absa which acquired Barclays Bank Plc from Barclays Group rounding up top 5. Kenya has the highest number of banks in all Africa at 43 different banks.

  195. For once I am disappointed about the channel. It did a propaganda of its own about Cuba. Does the owner of this channel know that the problem is not necessarily how the government runs Cuba but rather the embargo that has been placed on Cuba by America and its friends since 1959? It is true that life is hard for majority of Cubans just like it is true that Cubans enjoy free education, healthcare and has probably the highest doctor per patient ratio in the world and one of the highest levels of literacy. Socialism or communism isn't necessary the problem anymore than capitalism is. Capitalism rules the world but billions of people live in povery and poverty like conditions and a few individuals own almost all wealth of the world. The Communist/Socialist experiment has not been allowed to operate let alone thrive. Having said that, social democratic parties dominate Europe which at their root are socialist in nature and at any rate the ultimate goal is to transition to socialism. The Nordic countries are the wealthiest and happiest in the world with generous welfare programmes and high taxation whilst allowing for democracy and market economy. Maybe Cuba can be accused for lack of democracy but even then China has still shown a country can thrive without democracy. The owner of this channel is clearly biased and has not done enough research to understand why Cuba is as it is. It has everything to do with economic embargo that was slapped on Cuba 65 years ago!

You must be deluded and grossly misinformed. Black Americans and foreigners like it here and the likes of you can keep away. We don't need your energy and pseudo-expertise on countries you know little about. You crying Nairobi is expensive while earning in dollars just shows how stingy and penny pincher you are. I'm glad you left, please never come back!

  197. @NerdNovaTech this guy mischaracterised Nairobi on his first day crying about slow internet speeds because he settled for a cheap package. He showed nothing about Nairobi other than complaining incessantly inside Karura forest! He is also one of those who drink during the day and maybe that impairs his judgement and outlook on things. Let him bounce, we don't need his validation. Kenya sells itself, it always has. Unsubscribe from his channel just like I did. YouTube algorithm keeps pushing his channel to me even when I've made it clear I'm not interested.

  198. As a Kenyan and a student of Africa and the world at large, I'm fascinated by goings on in your beautiful country. As an outsider, I think the ANC went off track with the ousting of comrade Mbeki. The last decade has seen Mzansi stagnate or regress economically. The less said about loadshedding that has been going on for the last 17 years now the better. How can a country so rich at least by African standards drop the ball like this? Mineral riches, advanced infrastructure, manpower, availability of land and yet be most unequal, poverty stricken and insecure! How can the President think that his government/party has performed well when 47% of his people are on grants courtesy of high unemployment? Just like Kenya, SA is seen as a beacon of hope for many countries in Africa but ANC has thrown all that out. I know it's campaign season or silly season, so people will take credit for anything whilst they should be ashamed for omissions and commissions perpetrated by them. I feel sorry for "born free" citizens and hopefully they can get out to vote and change the direction of their country. As an outsider, I am afraid though that ANC will still be in government after the elections since DA is majorly seen as a white party and EFF doesn't have enough votes to garner the more than 50% required to win. The other parties are too small to have much effect on the outcome. The best case scenario is a coalition government where ANC doesn't garner more than 50% of the votes and hence it is forced to go into a coalition with EFF who would fundamentally alter their policy direction. Maybe just maybe a coalition of ANC and DA could also be in the offing as remote as that seems. Either way, the 2024 SA elections will be a watershed moment for the country.
