    This video clip has enabled me to virtually visit these towns of Nyandarua. The presentation is so real that I felt like I was walking through them. Nyandarua is very beautiful and to say the truth this is a place that I would love to live in and be far from noisy crowded towns. The sceneries are panoramic. Wow!

    Thanks for that visit,Nyandarua is still a beautiful place to be,from 1986 to 1990,i was a teacher in Wanjohi secondary seconary,when it was a boarding&day mixed boys & girls at Ririon village,when farms were large,very early in the morning you would find alot ice/ snow flakes covering the fields,am planning to visit my old friends,there, i and two friends after arriving late 10:00am at night in Ol kalou,we walked upto Ririon village through Kariamu,that road was not tarmaced,i remember mini buses called Gashau,moti mokoro

    You are right on the correlation between cold weather and frequency of getting hungry. In Turkana County/very hot, one good meal can take care of your hunger for 12 hours. Not the same for Kabuku in Limuru.

What you have just shown is a shanty town a slum the people living there are underdeveloped and cannot rise to high standards of living whilst lacking the knowledge to sustain properly. The people of that area need to move!
