With pleasure.

This is Dar.
Slum, shanties and disorganized housing as far as the eyes can see.
No access roads, no paved roads, rusty iron sheets.. God, how do people live here.

Mind you 99% of Dar outside the CBD looks like this.







Now This is 98% of Nairobi.







 
Ila zile slums za Nairobi sijui kwa Tanzania zinaweza kupatikana sehemu gani!ni hatari sana kwa kweli...
 
Show me even a single side wall of ironsheets in Dar houses achilia mbali nyumba za tope, Nairobi CBD kuna array of mud houses

Nairobi CBD has been compared to London and other European cities.
Only someone who has never left Bongolala would make such a stupid claim.

CBD has its boundaries. The pockets of slums are way outside the CBD.

I have hosted several Tanzanians here in Nairobi. And the one thing that shocks each one of them everytime is the housing.
They are all amazed to see the highrise structures in residential estates. Almost everyone lives in highrise, well organized apartments.
They were surprised to find tarmac in residential estates. Something that is virtually non-existent in Tanzania.

Meanwhile in Dar and most of Tanzania, the houses for 99% of residents look like this.
Even Wasafi captured them well in Tetema.





 
Majority of those so called slums occupy less than an acre of land.
Yani unanidanganya mm au unadanganya vipofuπŸ˜†πŸ˜†πŸ˜†πŸ˜†πŸ‘‡πŸ‘‡πŸ‘‡πŸ‘‡

Sasa wacha nikufundishe angalia area of city center na ufananishe area of slumsπŸ˜‹πŸ˜‹

Note that black colour area ni city center
Grey colour area ni slums

 

From the aerial views of Nairobi, you can see the planning. You can see the estate roads. You can see the organization.
Dar is total chaos, ugly structures, rusty sheets.
You can argue here all day, but you know that is what it is.

Zoom out that map of Nairobi on desktop and you see the tiny section that Kibera and the others occupy.
 
Haya tuoneshe hapo nyumba kama hziπŸ˜†πŸ˜†πŸ˜†πŸ˜†πŸ˜†πŸ˜†πŸ‘‡πŸ‘‡πŸ‘‡πŸ‘‡πŸ‘‡πŸ‘‡
