Those who lived in the city long before we got here tell us with overwhelming nostalgia that the buses came on time; garbage was collected regularly and Nairobi Primary School (a good public school then) was where top civil servants took their children; City Council clinics worked and the city was generally safe, with no hawkers and street families hectoring window shoppers. City residents lived a decent life. It was worthwhile to live, work and study in the city.
