Because Africa is one! There are many Kenyans in Nigeria too. There are several Nigerian investments here - banks, IT companies and churches to name a few. Remember KQ also has offices in Nigeria. Nigeria is a large buyer of our flowers and soon tea. There are also many Nigeria students at private universities in Nairobi. Clearly you have never left your village!

Kenyans have many reasons to be proud of their country. I am Cameroonian, i went to high school in Arusha Tanzania which only four hours from Nairobi. I have been to kenya a couple of times .I Loveee Nairobi. I currently live in the US. I remember when my dad was trying to send me to the US, I asked him my if could go to Breaburn high in Nairobi because i went to Breaburn Arusha but he said no..Just wanted to say I Love my east African people ...I love Nairobi .Best high experience a young African girl can have .....
Aww, thanks for sharing, Kenyans should really be proud of this beautiful country they have here, glad you had the opportunity to experience the beauty of East Africa. Thanks, for watching 🤩🤗
I came across your videos last night due to the research I've been making on Kenyan recently. I love the way you take your time to explain everything, your gestures, smiles, etc
@@Iamblakcoffee what I would like to tell you is that just stay alarmed and be warned in visiting some areas in nairobi like "guthurai " those are dangerous places,, especially your phone
Hi Misi. True, you are soft-spoken and have a light nigerian accent. Interesting. It seems your accent will be "kenyanised" very quickly. Karibu Kenya.
We have pepper all over Kenya, you can buy them anywhere. Just because we don't use them so much in our food it doesn't mean we don't plant them. Am seriously getting tired of this pepper complain lol😅
I suffered before I got some though, I finally did got some at Quickmart. Thanks for planting them for those of us that’s used to eating lots of peppers 😂
@@Iamblakcoffee I am not worried talking about your beauty Misidentify. You are already our SHEKEJI (In-Law) and therefore we look forward to you giving us beautiful kids
😂 we learn daily and because you have been here all along you probably didn’t take conscious effort to know more about the place, it’s same with me and my home. I know things I should but I don’t go out of my way to learn more 😍 Glad I could do help with this and thanks for watching 🥰🤗
Yes you are so right...!!! soup, hot tea, warm cloths, no shouting.....helps with the weather....Nairobi is called, the city of cool water...if you need to get warm in nbi...pls hv the above.... Also bring egusi with you...the soup we can easily provide....with that you are here to stay....karibu..wellcome
You are a calm and your accent is easy to understand. Not the usual thick Naija one. East Africans are generally chill and you will fit in perfectly based on your demeanour. Yes, we all assume any black person understands Kiswahili so we will speak to you in default until we sense you are not understanding. The culture is similar in Kenya and Tanzania and maybe Uganda and Rwanda
The clothes thing is not entirely true, yes we had a thriving textile industry in the 70’s which went burst because of cheap second hand imports, but in the last few years the local textile industry has been and is being revamped including cotton production!
Asante Sana for adding this because a friend told me Kenya doesn’t produce clothes but from what you have said you do but export instead Because most Kenyans prefer to go for the less expensive option 🥳 Thanks for sharing this 🤗
Good insights on Kenya 👌 How can one pay house rent for a year or two in advance in Nigeria/Ghana!? That's exploitation! Are there no landlord/tenant regulations by the government to safeguard both parties? In Kenya the most you can pay is 2-3 months in advance only once as security deposit and it's also refundable.
Thanks for this great question 😁 we live in a crazy world out there, no one listens and there’s no government agency to ensure these things are done the way it should be or rather there are agencies for this but they don’t do their job. In Ghana for instance the government has said no landlord is allowed to take more than a year’s worth of rent but when you go house hunting the landlord insists he wants 2 years rent, take it or leave it. And to make a refund when you’re ready to move out is another issue, one which I am currently facing right now (my landlord hasn’t refunded me for 7 months rent and he has taken payment from another occupant as soon as I moved) it’s the crazy things that happen in west Africa. Rules without regulations are just useless
@@Iamblakcoffee That's atrocious! Governments anywhere should protect the weak! In Kenya,we have Rent Restrictions Tribunal anchored in law to protect both tenant and landlord for either residential or commercial rent space. No rent increment can be imposed without an advance notice and if need be a review of the rents to an agreeable rate. Before a landlord can kick out a tenant, a three months notice to vacate must be issued with an option to refund or utilize the deposit to the tenant. Same with tenant,if he's the one initiating the space vacation,he must issue a one month notice to the landlord. This gives both parties ample time to arbitrate any issue that might arise between them. Also gives landlord time to assess and revalue his property in case of any vandalism by tenant. In case of any vandalism to the house/premises,the tenant forfeits the deposit money or chips in more to cater for the extend of the breakage. Such a tribunal with full-time legal staff brings sanity to real estate business where everyone's investments or interests are protected. An absentee landlord is obliged to appoint a full-time qualified agent or caretaker for everyday management of the property like cleanliness, security and safety, water and power consistency and occasionally repairs etc. All these measures ensures that a renter feels at home away from home and the landlord reasonably gains from his investment without necessarily exploiting others. In this regard compared to West African, I feel we are blessed here although much need still to be done. Thanks for the insights
@@lifehacks1019 oh y’all are blessed you truly have no idea. When I travelled down here from Ghana I still had most of my furniture in the apartment which I intend to sell. Before I would even get to Ethiopia for the layover my landlord already broke into my apartment saying he wants to make sure every is intact, when in fact there’s nothing in the apartment that is his, he rented to me a completely empty apartment. Everything done inside was all me so I wondered “what exactly was he checking for, like was I going to run away with the television he didn’t put in the apartment or the air-conditioner which I bought” what exactly ? It was just a stupid act from a stupid person which in fact should be illegal but that’s west Africa for you, it’s sad but it’s the reality of things. It’s a much better life out here, things are coordinated and no one is allowed to do rubbish because there’s a law that governs everything and punishment for any violation and enforcement and of these laws. 🥰 after a few days here in Nairobi I’m glad I took the leap and relocated here 🥳
@@Iamblakcoffee Take heart that nothing lasts forever and moreso poor services in customer-centric industries like the real estate. Welcome to Nairobi! A few tips though; *Never sign a long-term lease agreement unless it's under your company or corporate that is paying for it. Contracts should be open-ended with minimum notice to vacate from both sides. *When renting,go for apartments in multi-dwelling blocks and if it's single unit bungalow,go for gated communities or estates. Services here are centralized and security optimum. *On top of location and amenities, also ensure that there's ample and secure car park if you drive. Ideally a 1-2 bedroom unit is allocated 1 car park while 3-4-5 bedrooms unit 2 car park slots. This is due to the average family size per unit and possible assumption that a large family will probably be having 2 cars. This is never a deal breaker though it's generally a norm. *Always know the contact person for key service provision if the unit caretaker isn't a resident within. Some units charge service charge on monthly rent and any emergency fixings are catered therein. So don't let anyone charge you for any fixture that ain't your making. *Most family size units come with an extra house-help accommodation (Servant's Quarter SQ). You can have your house girl stay in there or sublet it for extra income. *Water supply although connected from the city mains, most units have emergency water provision from drilled water wells (boreholes). Always check with your caretaker whenever borehole water is temporarily connected so as to separate usage. Only use borehole water for cleanings or bathing and never for cooking or drinking. *Utilize solar heated bath water to minimize on electricity bill. Most multiple dwelling units have solar heating systems. *If with kids,ensure the units have ample play areas either common or private yards. If not rent near such amenities for the convenience and safety of your kids *In case you have a pet like a dog or cat, endure they're vaccinated to comply with the city public health laws. Always secure them not to roam public common areas. But first confirm with the unit management if they allow pets at all. *In case you live in a gated community with a kitchen garden,seek the help of the groundsman and plant fast growing vegetables and fruits. Although the management might want to restrict extra usage of water for irrigation,always there's a solution with them. *Electricity bills are conveniently paid on Mpesa for both prepaid and postpaid meters. The best is the prepaid token system where you decide how much power to use at what given timeframe. It's also easy to track your home power usage with token system. Also check if your house unit has standby power generator for occasional power outage. Although power outages are minimal, there will always be a public notice for any disruption from the Kenya Power company (KPLC) either on Twitter,FB or print media. Date,time and location of outage will clearly be stipulated. I hope this helps and as you make Nairobi your home,I say Karibu Nyumbani ... Welcome Home! 😊
Hi Georgina 👋 thanks for watching and for dropping your thoughts, I’m glad I pronounced them correctly, I’m learning more words I’ll be sharing in upcoming videos 🥰🎊
That will be cool, I’m sure you’ll love it 😊 you can look into Airbnb in the particular place you’ll like to stay in Lagos or hotels, if you’re to be hosted by someone it should be someone you know
I'm glad I could hear everything you said because your country people heh! They have a heavy accent and the fact that you're calm and not ego centric.... And hold on... You pay rent yearly?? What if you want to move out do they refund?
Welcome. The first Nigerian who is chilled.Not loud😍karibu kenya. We are told that due to the sound of generators that's why Nigerians shout cz they all have hearing problems. Is it true?
😂 thanks. That’s not true at all, it’s the hustle and economy that made us that way. When we get to better environments we naturally start to leave those things behind 😍
Hilarious! Not because of generator, not hustling and bustling. First we never knew we were talking louder than other nationals until it was pointed out. We do so unknowingly. Maybe high temperature raises the activities of our systems , thereby making us very active.I can now recall our primary school teachers always asking us to speak loudly if we were answering questions in low tone in the class even when there was no generator within the environment. Then it was like speak loudly for everyone to hear you if you are confident of what you are saying. That transformed me from a soft spoken person to a loud speaker. Cheers.happy new year.from Nigeria.
You need to go visit West Africa to truly appreciate what you have here, the standard of things here are way improved than ours that’s why we say such good things when we visit Kenya.
Trust me, your country is heaven. Was there for a week in Nov last year, and I must say its the best country I have been to (and I have been to a few). It has its downs, but on average, it beats any other place. Good infrastructure, lovely and friendly people, common language for everyone, and, unlike other countries in Africa, Kenyans do not hate other Africans. The love I experienced there was on another level. I am planning an early retirement in an African country (I am Zimbabwean working in the UK) , and Kenya has just shot to the top of my list, way above my native Zim.

Haha glad to know you are loving Kenya. If you consider travelling to the coast, specifically Malindi. Kindly hit me up.. There are very beautiful and affordable villas available. Karibu Kenya.
Are those places colder than Nairobi or warm? Because Nairobi is cold to me, you can’t understand it if you don’t know the heat I’ll coming from, it’s the kind of heat where you’re butt naked but still feeling hot 🥵 most people in west Africa can’t survive without air conditioners
I like you beautiful black African lady. If I wasn't married I could have provided the heat you are missing 😉😜. You didn't mention the difference in housing estates though. Kenya has many tall apartments while Nigeria has mainly bungalows and mansions

Karibu Kenya 🇰🇪 don't worry about a partner we are prospecting already
“Prospecting” 😂 okay that’s good to know. Thanks David 🤗
Thank you for your kind words
You’re welcome Martin 🥰
It's about time that more Nigerians started relocating to Kenya (East Africa) to experience the Kenya lifestyle
Are you From There??
🥰 we definitely need to visit East Africa more, there’s a lot to learn and see
Visit... Yes. Relocating absolutely not.
We driving some British people And Southern Africa.East Africa . Community
Cool. Hope they enjoyed East Africa?
I'm glad I could hear everything you said because your country people heh! They have a heavy accent and the fact that you're calm and not ego centric.... And hold on... You pay rent yearly?? What if you want to move out do they refund?
Glad you could hear all I said 😍 And yes rent is paid monthly in Nigeria and and in Ghana it’s paid for 2 years in advance 😢
Welcome. The first Nigerian who is chilled.Not loud😍karibu kenya.
We are told that due to the sound of generators that's why Nigerians shout cz they all have hearing problems. Is it true?
😂 thanks. That’s not true at all, it’s the hustle and economy that made us that way. When we get to better environments we naturally start to leave those things behind 😍
😂😂😂😂ati generator aki...soo sad yet they are the mother of all grown economies in africa
Alllllllllllaaaaaaaaar 😂😂😂😂😂😂💀💀💀💀💀
Hilarious! Not because of generator, not hustling and bustling. First we never knew we were talking louder than other nationals until it was pointed out. We do so unknowingly. Maybe high temperature raises the activities of our systems , thereby making us very active.I can now recall our primary school teachers always asking us to speak loudly if we were answering questions in low tone in the class even when there was no generator within the environment. Then it was like speak loudly for everyone to hear you if you are confident of what you are saying. That transformed me from a soft spoken person to a loud speaker. Cheers.happy new year.from Nigeria.
Karibu Kenya 🇰🇪🇰🇪
Asante Sana Joseph 🥰💜
You're a great storyteller. Thank you for sharing!

Of late the Nigerians make me think my country is heaven and the way we complain locally. Makes me curious to know kwani how's Nigeria and Ghana!
You need to go visit West Africa to truly appreciate what you have here, the standard of things here are way improved than ours that’s why we say such good things when we visit Kenya.
Trust me, your country is heaven. Was there for a week in Nov last year, and I must say its the best country I have been to (and I have been to a few). It has its downs, but on average, it beats any other place. Good infrastructure, lovely and friendly people, common language for everyone, and, unlike other countries in Africa, Kenyans do not hate other Africans. The love I experienced there was on another level. I am planning an early retirement in an African country (I am Zimbabwean working in the UK) , and Kenya has just shot to the top of my list, way above my native Zim.
@@munhumutema8970 thanks for sharing this Munhu, I feel Kenyans need to visit other countries to appreciate theirs more 🥰
@@Iamblakcoffee nigeria should be on the same level of development with gulf States they have bn mining oil and gas since the 60s earning billions of dollars where do they take all that money
@@munhumutema8970 and many zimbabweans now days come to kenya i have frend in nakuru kenya who is zimbabwean from bulawayo

Okay, thanks for sharing this information 🥰🥰
Seriously,We need to recategorize coldness again..Hadi Nairobi ni Baridi,someone take this lady to Limuru,Kimende
Are those places colder than Nairobi or warm? Because Nairobi is cold to me, you can’t understand it if you don’t know the heat I’ll coming from, it’s the kind of heat where you’re butt naked but still feeling hot 🥵 most people in west Africa can’t survive without air conditioners
@@Iamblakcoffee Those places are the coldest in Kenya. July is the coldest month.
@@michael_saleh okay, thanks 😊

I like you beautiful black African lady. If I wasn't married I could have provided the heat you are missing 😉😜.
You didn't mention the difference in housing estates though. Kenya has many tall apartments while Nigeria has mainly bungalows and mansions

Thanks for mentioning about the estates, I’ll definitely add that in my upcoming videos. Kindly subscribe for more content 🥰🎊
