Are u telling me that About 66% of Nairobi urban population currently living in slums , only leaves in this 2% land mass,? .

Look at Ghana, Nigeria and Bongoland's slum population and ask yourself that.

As you look for East Legon - here is Kitengala - 30-40kms from Nairobi CBD - Nairobi metro.

Correction this Kitengala - Isinya - 40km to 60kms form Nairobi CBD.

These clowns have an excuse for every shortcoming.

They still haven't believed that Kenya is collecting the same amount of money they are collecting even though their population is five times ours

rvp20182:
The definition of slums varies. Slumscrapper are slum. KANO is a slum. Please check UNHABITAT.

Nairobi slums - these total shanties - iron roof west africa kind - the biggest Kibera has maybe 150K people - then Mathare - name them - max would be about 600K people.

Now Eastland (including all slums except for Kibera/Kangemi - few slums on west side of Nairobi)- Concrete jungle of Nairobi - slumscrappers - 2 out 3 Nairobi live here - about 3M out 4.5M of Nairobi.

Umoja, Roysambu, Pipeline - are concrete slums.

The definition is based on DEVELOPED CITY STANDARDs. NOT nigeria standards.

You entire cities are slumspolis..99%.

Hmm , u totally leave in a different world from most Kenyans, do u even know that Nairobi alone has over 40 slums?.
The same unhabitate u quoted have this to say
"Existing figures are compelling evidence of the dire situation in many of
Kenya’s urban centres. Depending on the city, 60 to 80 percent of Kenya’s
urban population lives in slums characterised by lack of access to water and
sanitation, adequate housing, and secure tenure, and where many experience
acute security and health problems and are dependent on the informal sec￾tor for survival. For instance, in Nairobi, 60 percent of the population lives in
slums that occupy only 5 percent of the total land area of the city. The growth
of these slums is unprecedented, with the number of slum dwellers expected
to double within the next 15 years. Only 22 percent of slum households in
Nairobi has water connections, while 75 percent accesses water through
water vendors who overcharge, making slum dwellers pay more for their
water than people living in middle- or high-income areas. The provision of
sanitary services is also inadequate and the use of open spaces and “flying
toilets” is common. In places like Kibera, poor environmental sanitation leads
to waterborne and vectorial diseases such as diarrhoea and malaria. Epidem￾ics such as cholera and typhoid are occurring with greater frequency.
This grim reality provides the persuasive justification for slum upgrading
initiatives in the country aimed at improving living conditions"

I am desperately trying to help level the ground - 60ksm in any direction from Nairobi - no Ghana estate can compete. The Nairobi proper is giving South Africans headache.

Heck why not even compete with say NAKURU

Nairobi metro - 30-40kms from Nairobi CBDA - Juja to thika - nowhere in ghana or their slumpolis nigeria can even get here this century - that is like 40kms from NAIROBI IN ANY DIRECTION

Akosombo electricity company staff houses is all you can pride yourself.
East Legon cannot compete with Kitengala.

Easy bring the best of east legon - and I give the best of Kitengela.

Akosombo is a beautiful area with very good roads


Your kitengela is a slum

I wont even dignify it to compare it to East Legon especially when Runda, Karen and the European settlement of muthiaga combine cant match up to East Legon.

Your first class neighbourhood of Muthiaga has terrible roads.

rvp20182:
Way better than East Legon or anything in Nigeria outside say VI. That is the point. If you disagree bring a video evidence. Kitengela part - just need paved roads - your cities almost need Jesus christ.

East Legon has really given you a nightmare you haven't gotten over.
You have roamed the entire internet just to find a place in Kenya that will be as good as East Legon and you've not found any.

popizaino:



He dey your body.

if you mean below, then yes that's where they are

We are still waiting for video. Muthaiga has bad roads...maybe the main road where public taxis are allowed. Please note in Nairobi many estate public taxis are forbidenn.

Nairobi proper is too much for entire west africa - including banana island and victoria.

It nearly south africa level

As you find us drone footage of ghana...please take a look at westland for example....not even the best

Nigga, Nigeria is far more than what u imagine, I swear to God, Kenya can never get to Development level of Nigeria,
Let us compare the Kitengela or any other parts of Nairobi out side the CBD with one of the poorest state in Nigeria, Yola, Adamawa

Bellow vidoe is a road trip from residential areas to the commercial parts of Yola in Adamawa state, the comparison should start from there

Very small - 40km to 60km - are your crazy.
Nairobi radius of 40km is almost completely built up. That is HUGE.
The 60kms is starting to get filled up. That would make it 10,000Kms. That is nearly ten times Lagos city. 3 times the state

This is really revealing

But I've know this all along .

Just within Nairobi city centre and 75% of the population dont have access to water

At least we are talking only the roads - and we get to South Africa standards. For you - start with electricity. At least Ghana is on step 2. Although honestly like rwanda did - they need to demolish like 3/4 of their current cities. - and rebuild a fresh. It not possible to say fix roads like Nairobi and kaboom you're developed. It nuking the entire slumpolis down.

Ghanaian communities dont compete with slums


Go seek attention from somewhere else.


Your cities dont even have water supply
Yet you want to compare yourself to a rich Ghana that supplies every part of the majority of it cities and even villages with water.

When we got for building - you ran to water. When we get to water - you run to electricity - when we get to electricity - you run to housing shortage.

Another excuse for why no where in Kenya can look as good as East Legon.




Meanwhile those are where your rich people and foreigners live.

While 60% of nairobians live in terrible slum where theres no water supply

Please give me drone footage. All I have seen in Nigeria are roads. I can shoot video of any random road. It's no biggie.

So, what percentage of Nairobi structures should be demolished to make a "Developed" nation?

Look at Ghana, Nigeria and Bongoland's slum population and ask yourself that.

Infact, you are a disappointment to your parents.
Such a shameless idiot

So for how long will you keep exposing your stupidit*y here?

Can't you see kenya's pie shows majority of you guys live in slums than it is in Ghana? must we always interpret graphs to you? Such dumbness

In your lunch-box head you think the light green shows the number of people living in slums no wonder 90% of you failed your final exams.

If for nothing at all, look at SA, Egypt, Morocco so you will understand the pie chart better. This is so embarrassing

you are mad

Nairobi built up area is a small 20km with slums dotted all around the 2 km area of upper hill, westland and parkland or whatever their names are.

rvp20182:
When we got for building - you ran to water. When we get to water - you run to electricity - when we get to electricity - you run to housing shortage.

keep running your mouth

You will keep being behind Ghana in everything, if you dont start demanding for better from your country.


Why should you be subjected to desperate living conditions like that ?
