As a Senegalese brother I attest that Kenya is truly a wonderful country.
HEI I love my country but please, this place is not good 😅. If you see the taxes we are milked to pay the 50+ political goons of our president? You'll change your mind 🇰🇪

So refreshing to see Kenya through the eyes of a Nigerian sister. Karibu Kenya 🇰🇪
The rate at which Nigerian ladies are hyping kenya I'm Even falling in love with their vlogs. 🎉❤
Ikr 😂
😂❤🎉😊
Very true
We don't need an AC not because of extra charges but because the weather does not require an AC.
Very refreshing to hear a Nigerian lady talk positively about her experience on her visit to Kenya. I am proud of my country, welcome everyone to Kenya .
Kenya is one of the most inclusive and diverse countries in the world ,foreigners live like locals as long as they are trouble free .
Its not unused land.Its protected land for wildlife
Here in Kenya, Drivers use car horns to greet each other(Hooting), in fact, we want every seat to have a horn even us passengers we want to greet people we know outside the car🤣
😂😂😂😂
Hii nayo imenimaliza🤣🤣
🤣🤣🤣 I now believe we are funny
Most 🇰🇪'n comment ever 😁
😂😂😂😂😂😂This is the comment I never knew I needed.
Honestly give credit to whom it belongs 🎉 I'm a Congolese schooling in Nairobi, Kenyan are making a good job😊
Musau is a Kenyan Kamba name, I didn't know it was also a Congolese name
Wikenga Ndunge!!😂
Apparently Musau is a Congolese name! So our ancestors came from their...😮
I'm glad to hear all this abt Kenya. I must visit Kenya soon. Much love to my Kenyan people from Ghana.
Karibu
Kenya is a wonderful and blessed country but many Kenyans do not know that or dont appreciate it until they travel to other countries.
My Land is Kenya..I love what we have.
Exactly, after I travelled I swear kenya is a good country ni vile tu we have greedy leaders
Absolutely. It took traveling to other African countries to appreciate Kenya.
So true
Kenya is a good but we still have a lot to do.
President should not be given any credit for mpesa
Oh, didn’t know that
M-Pesa was established by Kenya's leading telecommunications company Safaricom in 2007 and since then they have launched several other products that make it easy for locals to transact businesses over the phone. M-Pesa would not have had the success it did without the support of the Government- they have 35% of the shares and Central Bank insures M-Pesa deposits.
You're welcome nxt time sister, the mpesa wasn't brought by the president 😂, he's a thief.
@@benkiriama6169kiria we! 😂

Not unused land, it's called a wildlife reserve or game reserve/park. That's set aside for wild animals.
You are the first Nigerian to speak positive about Kenya. The way most people say we are arrogant! Thanks ❤❤, we love you too.
Kenyans are not arrogant
Most people compliment Kenyans. Nigerians are arrogant
Are you new to UA-cam? Clearly you are because you have not seen the many videos of Nigerians talking positively about Kenya.
really? ive watched a lot of these videos, never once heard anyone say that
Lol you should do your research well.
You forgot that you didn't experience NEPA blackouts, no generators... am Kenyan and stayed in Nigeria 3 years and had my culture shocks too starting with food for breakfast not tea. Can I tell you more?
I'd love to hear more😊

Welcome back to Kenya. The walking you did as you entered the airport is a security feature. Remember Kenya has suffered several terrorist attacks and the government is committed to protect its citizens.
The reason aircon are not used often is because the weather is moderate. Thank you for this review of Kenya 😍
Wow, as a Kenyan am amazed the way people from other countries speak well about our country.
We do love East African music but you guys in Naija are just killing it. Your music is just 🔥. Moto
And Congolese rumba. Okay, I'm from an older generation, that knew Fela Kuti...but still prefers rumba by far.
@@cobwebtheorem7538 Fela is the father of everything that is happening in Nigeria right now. Nairobi is the mother of rumba and Lingala. A bit of African music history for you. 😅
@@KelvinKim-desu Hey, I met rumba artists in the 70s through to the 90s, and even 2000s...I lived through that history. Hata nayebi lokoto ya Lingala (I even speak the Lingala language). Lingala is from the Kongo basin, not Nairobi. I wrote 'Congolese' rumba since there's also Afro-Cuban rumba, from which the Congolese rumba is derived.
Ya solo. Lisolo ya mikolo ya kala. True. Some history for you too.
@@cobwebtheorem7538 Amazing!
Good overview of Nairobi. I'm Kenyan but Nigerians are great people. Confident, innovative and really aggressive. So helpful when you meet them outside of Africa.
Exactly, thanks for the compliments to my people ❤️

The hooting thing (horn) in traffic was a culture shock for me as a Kenyan visiting Lagos 😂
A real culture shock for me too, and running while crossing the road
Me too and the multitude of people.
💯!
@@florencetessie3681why are they running?? 😂😂😂
So refreshing to hear someone portray Kenya positively especially with the way the country is now..We love you our African sister you are welcome to stay😂
I'm a Kenyan thank you for your observations and experience I will one day visit your country also 🙏🏾.🇰🇪🇺🇸

It’s just not the drivers that are calm. The people too! For me west Africans are very theatrical and at first I used to think they are always arguing only to realize it’s just a normal way of conversing.😂
Exactly
True
Felt the same in Cameron and Nigeria, I was like why are they quarrelling?
@@marthamakola2512 I know right😂😂😂😂
The reason as to why most cab drivers prefer those small cars is because they are more ecenomical since they consume less fuel. That way a driver will make more profit as compared to when they use a bigger car.
Really? Didn’t know that
Sipendi those dolly cars,,,kengine nili order kalipofika , karibu nikatae kuingia 😅😅😅
Lovely video! We love Nigerians 🇳🇬, more of you should come visit and live here! Fun fact: The 'unused' land actually belongs to our wild animals, and wild animals have priority there, we just visit them and go back to our homes 😃
Im proud to be Kenyan.. didnt even know we have come this far.. With good leadership Kenya can be the best country in Africa..
Now we have the worst leadership watch see Kenya go to the dog

First video watching... Thank you visiting our country, we love visitors 🇰🇪🇰🇪🇰🇪🇰🇪🇰🇪
Thank you for visiting my country and your lovely evaluation I really appreciate. We love our Nigerians they make us proud. Love from Philadephia Pennsylvania.
Free WiFi even in Matatu 🇰🇪❤️
Do not joke with those people...they are the ones who started the online mobile transfer in the world!!
Finally someone praised Kenyans we are humbled dear.
1: Small cars are used for Bolt taxis because they are cheaper to fuel.
2: Kenyans are very friendly people until they are provoked. Then you see a bad side of us!
3: We also have public buses (matatu) that honk a lot and they have touts. It depends what part of the city that you visit.
The honking done in other countries drives you nuts my bratha!
Visit Nigeria and you will say kenya traffic n honk is better i feared for my life with the crazy driving
Hi...I'm a Kenyan I really enjoyed your vlogs...the large land masses for tourism are because tourism is a big industry in Kenya....it gives us around 2billion dollars anually...we depend on tourism and agriculture...we receive around 1.7-2 million tourists a year....next time come and visit the white coastal beaches..other bigger parks ..etc.
I definitely will, thanks for the feedback
She didn't research 'Land Mass"in Africa. She focuses on population. I'm sure she doesn't know her neighbors in Niger republic and Mali are bigger than Nigeria.
Interesting welcome to Kenya. The reason why the airport security separates people from cars is because of our unfortunate experience with terrorist attacks. Kenya places a high premium on securing public spaces. Especially the airport, malls, supermarkets, hotels and anywhere were there is high human traffic. Im sure you noticed this difference with our country as well. Security checks can feel like paranoia but are necessary for deterring enemy attacks on our beloved country. 🎉
Very well put. Our security is top notch and more so we are a tourist destination. A must to safeguard our beautiful Kenya
We are cool because we dont eat pepper like nigerians😂 Also we are not loud because we dont have generators on that makes us shout 😂Power supply is okay
😂😂😂
Proudly Kenyan my mother land,Ugali and nyama choma is our staple food.Karibu Kenya,Hakuna matata❤❤👍💯
The meal is called Ugadi very popular in East and Central Africa. The most popular foreign music in Kenya is from DRCongo. Nigerian movies are very, very popular in kenya.
Let me correct you not(ugdi) it's called (ugali from maize)
Generally the East African people are more calm comparing to the west Africans. You should also visit Tanzania and see how calm and welcoming they are😊
I definitely will
they don't like us kenyans tho, tanzanians that is
@@chenzhenzhu8046. They think we are aggressive. 😊 Don't know what a Nigerian would say about this . However they are very graceful, welcoming, polite and gentle. Our neighbors Tanzanians and Ugandan women know how to make their men feel like kings. Kenyan women pursuing Business and careers are off putting.😅😅
@@MsJamba09 Kings? Where are their kingdoms lol! Coddling men who can't build sh*t is why they're underperforming compared to western men.
Kenya does seem to be a wonderful continent. Well Done Kenya 🇰🇪🇿🇦
It's a country😅
hahahahaha.....very funny. your country is a...............nt
not seriosley tho
😂😂😂😂
Ugali is eaten in east and southern africa parts but with a different name.
Many naija don't know that, they only know kenya
With the calmness of drivers, Easy Africans are generally calm People. Lived in Kenya for 12 years after my family left Uganda civil war.Left in 86 Went back to.invest and do business because of the stability and strong currency. I will invest and do invest in Kenya anytime over Uganda.
Love the climate, love the Kenyan accent, friendly people, love East Africa!.
I've been to Nigeria and l can tell you, there a pluses but honestly l will pick Kenya anytime.

Welcome to Kenya

You just earned a new subscriber for marketing my country of Kenya 🇰🇪 well well 👏
Pray For Us all in Kenya we need to get Full deliverance with Blood of Jesus Christ!
mobile banking Mpesa is a game changer in Kenya,the best innovation ever.. Nairobi has great weather,no need for air-conditioners Kenyans are very calm, and aren't loud at all.
Yes the airport personnel in Lagos asking for money openly shocked me when I visited Nigeria in 2017
I hope hatutawai fika hapo
They don’t forcefully ask, but if you give them, they’ll pampered you like a baby and can die for you if you are by any means in trouble. Am not encouraging them though. Before I became rich I was on the street too, so I know what’s up
I'm really impressed with this Lady very entertaining presentation about Kenya . welcome great sister of Africa God bless.
The plastic bags that you saw are illegal. They are smuggled into the country from Uganda.
In terms of bolt, I think you always chose economy classes...
We have a really wide variety of cars for bolt.
Oh really? Didn’t know that
Karibu!!! Also WiFi in public transport (matatu). Its humbling as somethings are taken for granted but when you hear it from someone else,you know it's a blessing ❤
i like your show if I CAN COME TO NIGERIA I VERY TASTE FUFU AND ALSO VIST OSOFIA
From Kenya...
Yes, Kenyans are very friendly...and can be quiet comical... even in serious things...
Well, there are two sides to a coin...and their is the other side...
Loved the review...
The swallow in other parts of Africa is more varied. In Zambia where I am from we make swallow from cassava, sorghum, corn flour like what northern Nigerians eat called tuo. In fact northern Nigerians have a similar diet to southern, Eastern and Northern Africans. I noticed that northern Nigerians also eat soured milk butter, fresh cow's milk which is very popular in Zimbabwe Zambia, south Africa, etc
Refreshing to hear such a positive pov of kenya from you my African sister. Really beautifully put
Nobody uses AC in Kenya.. Didn't u notice the cool weather..If u go to the villages then ul see large acres of land unused...glad u enjoyed..
I sure did
Nobody uses AC? My goodness. Go to the coast.
Coast mtu anakunywa maji kama ngamia.
@@ceciliamuthungu424.I should have said in Nairobi coz. this video she talks Abt Nrb..And even in Coast There are those who use it but the majority use Fans.. especially those overhead fans..and yes I stay in Mbaraki Msa.
Welcome back to Kenya my dear sister and explore more about our country.
Igwe ! Igwee !! Igweee !!....to Sister Cheta From Naija.....For appreciating Kenyan Vibes. Plan for a longer stay next time.
I definitely will 🙏🙏🙏
Very professional 😊 welcome again sister you really praised Kenya with Alot of love thank you so much
Happy and Humbled,proud of my Country Kenya,you are welcomed back again next time
The energy u have is of another level. Kenya is a very beautiful country with beautiful people . Imagine just one video and there u had my subcribtion. Thanks for sharing ur experience.
The check up at the airports are for security reasons .much love from Kenya
proud Kenyan.... we really appreciate Nigerian Music for sure....
You are so beautiful and funny. Your energy is contagious. You made my day! Thank you for sharing, I earned a lot.
Those small cars are known as kei cars in Japan they are literally like cars on motorcycle engines you get the comfort of a car but with a fuel efficiency of motorcycle that means less emissions cleaner air and less costly to fuel therefore economical for carb drivers 🤗
Wow, very enlightened
Wonderful 👍🏿
My beautiful Kenya!
Since you commented so well about my country made me to subscribe to your channel. 'Ahsante sana' welcome back again kudos 👍
I am a Kenyan and I experienced the best relaxing environment in Rwanda 🇷🇼..I think its because I love mountains..Kivuye is a must visit guys abegoo.. Senegal see you in a few.❤
You are not a Kenyan .Rwanda is not relaxing Rwandese have no freedom and are scared of their president
I love Nigeria, Benin, Togo, Ghana... Hope I can get to visit west Africa.
Thank you for positivity promoting my country. Hoping one day i will visit Nigeria
Its interesting to hear our cultures our country is beautiful
Reason as to why we don't do AC Nairobi is cold city, we only put it on when need be, if you requested they could put it for you, but mostly in places like mombasa, generally coast region its hot, ACs are always on.
Kenya has the most stirring, beautiful national anthem I have ever heard. I can’t understand a word but love it as if it were my own.
Glad you loved it. It’s on my bucket list. One love 🇯🇲
The Tanzanian one is awesome and has been copied by several southern African countries
Yes. I am Tanzanian but their national anthem I just adopt it when I feel like a proud Black King.
And thats how you earned a new subbie from kenya....
Woow, Your cheerfulness as you introduced this video caught me glued to the end of it all. You have just earned another Kenyan Subscriber. This is not a big deal for us given our robust internet connectivity and widespread wifi'. WHat caught my attention is your closing remark i.e.: DESPITE your culture shock and amazement for KENYA, You still LOVE NAIJA. The Adage is that nothing will ever beat HOME-SWEET-HOME...unless of course you get married to a Kenyan (If you are not already married) as a god number of NAIJA ladies are becoming our in-laws. It appears you are already back to your country NAIJA, how sad. We love people like YOU. 💙
I mean.....(If you are not already married) as a GOOD number of NAIJA ladies are becoming our in-laws
Awwwnnnnnnn, thanks a lot for the feedback and welcome onboard. I would definitely visit Kenya again, for sure ❤️❤️❤️
@@chetasworld1 ASANTE SANA
I work with some Nigerians and Ghanaians, wonderful human beings. Stood by me and helped me transition into my current job when i was new. Unfortunately, some ignorant Kenyans have these imaginary ideas about West Africans.
Just like some Nigerians have "imaginary" ideas about Kenya/ns.
Western Africa... its a no go zone, reality!
@@rugendorunene545 why?
please..
Nice to see such a lovely Nigerian lady I only m eet Nigerian men in India during Univ days such as bayo kpakol kunle afolabi ayoo Ike ifanyi nwafor udo eno uneasy etc there were no Nigerian girls.studying in India but men were in thousands
Wow! Now you have met one 🤣
Karibu Sana and asante sana.bthw I'm Kenyan but will be coming to Nigeria again soon hope to see you.
Definitely, you are always welcome.
You just earned a new subbie Cheta! Thank you giving us such a positive reveiw! I mean there so many things we take for granted down here in Nairobi. It is so refreshing to see Kenya through your lenses. God bless you. I really look forward to visiting Nigeria - it's in my bucket list this year.
You are welcome to Nigeria. You'll certainly enjoy it too
New subscriber from Kenya thanks for appreciating Kenyan hospitality ❤
You forget to tell them that even at public places like Uhuru Garden and PSV we connect free wifi
Thanks for the good compliments
In mainland kenya ACs is not that common but its a total necessity in the coastal region and islands and northern part of kenya...if you want to relax your mind head to the white coastal beaches of diani or watamu ..youll be refreshed ..thank me later
Thanks for this feedback
I watched this bcoz i saw the name of my country😂 and wanted to know whats the matter, thanks we love u
The way you recall your experiences in this country is testament to how genuine it was. Karibu tena
You gain subscription for positive analysis about my country 🥰🇰🇪🇰🇪
THANKS FOR YOUR COMMENTS ABOUT US
Most countries that have experienced crazy inflations rarely use coins because the value of the currency is very low to accommodate lower denomination coins.
Nigeria not using coins is cause your currency has depreciated so much... it's not a flex.
Who said it’s a flex?
Very funny how a Nigerian finds other accents funny, if you can only really also see/listen to/hear your own accent 🤣🤣. Anyway, such a refreshing video and as a Namibian i have learnt a few things about Kenys through this video.
The small bolt cars are used to lower operational costs hence charging low fares, attracting more customers
Nice content. I'm surprised Nigeria shops and stores don't have Wi-Fi connection 😂 Also Nairobi is so cold sometimes gets to 10°C or even less that's why it's not a popular thing to turn on AC. Also, Our 1 shilling coin still has value. I know Nigeria's 1 naira might not have any value?
Very true, you have a point there
Not true we many shops don't take the shilling coin
@@africassafari4429 you're missing the point. Kenya still has the shilling in circulation. I still buy 5 sweets when travelling for 5 shillings.
AC doesn't mean for lowering temperature only
Was nice hearing about us from someone else's perspective. Kenyans are charming and so friendly. Mpesa came to being coz of Covid rules, otherwise karibu Kenya tena
The beautiful lady is observant. I visited Naija and I can say a few observations. 1. Kenyans dont wear African clothes much 2. Kenyans dont do huge food servings in comparison to Nigerians. 3. Kenyans have alot of vegetable readily available in comparison to West Africa. 4. Nigerians go out late and dance vigorously for just 2 hours. I mean after work they go home, have dinner then go out. In Keny its job to pub till am. Nigerians dont drink much
Kenya my beautiful home 🏡 Thanks for coming and welcome back. We adore our visitors ❤
Kenya 🇰🇪 is the best country fr in Africa after travelling to other African countries i still like kenya its like they say East or West home is best!!
Proud Kenyan, welcome again my sister.
Nigerians learn to Smile
It makes you live long and enjoy life...❤❤❤
😅😂😂😂
Welcome home again our sister. we love you so much. LOVE, PEACE & UNITY is our emblem.
no generators in Kenya too.. constant electricity
Exactly, very important information
On food...
Kenyan food is quite diverse...and we also do have plantain, but it is not popular...
The dishes range from meat products eg muturwa, to traditional African foods and vegetables to swahili dishes (sort of like a mildly spice indian foods), to a plethora of wheat products eg chapati, mandazi, mahamri etc
