It is always a tough and sweet moment to stay in Nairobi. Some say Nairobi ni shamba la mawe. To most, as long as you can face the smart-card machine or have some cash to meet your needs, pay rent, buy food, clothes and other constraint needs just to make my list short. This only applies to the wannabees on the east side of Uhuru Highway.
Truth be told guys from this side struggle to maintain the ratchet scale. Take a simple visual analysis in one hood along Juja Road in the peak hours. Petronilla from Shimalavandu village may absolutely conclude that it is a circumcision season or guys are rushing for a bull fighting occasion – high speed. Just to make sure that the boss or client is in a better position to make your pockets smile at the end of the day.
It requires no calculator to figure out the outcomes of misfortunes in East lands. Marriages break, crimes among the youth, fake doctors kutoka Tanzania, new churches that lure and play games on human psychology. They say wanting more can make you a street dog. Unless one stays in Eritrea you will see some science here. Guys do everything just to put the 90 shillings commodity on the table. It’s no joke.

For example, I have money, cars with my fake or legit degree, If say a lie repeatedly, it gets people divided. Let’s put the gamblers in prayers. Amen! It’s an addictive habit that has left many wallet-less. Take a lesson from Las Vegas, U.S.A gamblers.
The west side of Uhuru Highway, Kileleshwa, Karen e.t.c, where life is on the better side of the pie, I mean better financially, social and illness issues keep on rising. Marriages break on irreconcilable differences. Ask a cool buddy wa westy if he ever knew where carrots and eggs come from without googling , maybe you will get the answer on 8th August. Maybe.
The focus here is rather put on investment and contracts, with travels in and out of town and country. They look for better schools to educate their children and pay 1M and above as school fees .The search for new models of cars, mansions, better yachts in Dubai for holidays, where to play golf in Naivasha or Muthaiga and how he or she can make more cash in politics either by funding a politician or being the one. Yes! Too good to be true.
