How the Somalis of Kenya Have Completely Changed the Face of Eastleigh! LITTLE MOGADISHU 🇰🇪
You won't believe this is Eastleigh! The Biggest Somali Neighbourhood in Nairobi Kenya, it has earned the name 'Little Mogadishu' and it contributes abput 30% of Nairobi's revenue. Eastleigh looks so different now, a lot has changed for sure...Take a tour of the place through my lenses and be the judge!

[@kyalo_kioko]

What i love most about Eastleigh is the beautiful Somali women.Dang they're so hot!

[@AyomaLives]

Oooh

[@MwasKariuki]

This kind of street hawkers, bodaboda and matatus everywhere makes a place chaotic government needs to keep some order

[@AyomaLives]

It's way better now than before.

[@mohamedabdullahmohamed869]

I concur. As a Somali/Canadian Shopper in Eastleigh.....I found Ugandans. Rwandan, Burundians, Tanzanians, and many many Congolese. The winner is Kenyan Revenue they are making a killing here in Eastleigh, the Kenyan Government should step in and make it less chaotic.

[@thomasowino5927]

Eastleigh = Isili 😭😭😭.....still looks disorganised IMO & Crowded. If the Neighbourhood was built in consideration to space, it would be like a mini town

[@AyomaLives]

It looks way better than before, I give credit where it's due.

[@augustinekola9402]

That's where I spent my teenage life from 2001-2012 I went to Eastleigh airport primary school in my childhood

[@AyomaLives]

Awesome, a lot of changes now.

[@abdukadirnur6110]

Somalis are also thanking you for appreciating their effort beauty❤

[@AyomaLives]

Thank you

Moi Air Base Eastleigh was before independence known as Royal Air Force Eastleigh Base ( similar to the base in Southampton, UK). It was the Colonial airforce base. The name was later changed to Eastleigh Airbase.

[@AyomaLives]

Oooh, I had no idea.

[@roblemohamed9681]

Eastleigh was called Camp Somali during colonial era. It was always Somali.

[@AyomaLives]

Are you sure? Please share the reference...

[@samsonotieno365]

Good job but could you share your vlog on Mbita town kama ulifika uko?

[@AyomaLives]

[@mikegorbachev4964]

[@AyomaLives]

Peace is quite important

[@FearlessAfrican]

@@mikegorbachev4964 Why is there no peace and they all pray 5 times a day for 365 days?

[@lenin_oyugi]

[@AyomaLives]

Relax, I did.

[@benardmusyoka5376]

Amazing job Ayoma 👏

[@AyomaLives]

Thank you Benard

[@hassangingi7033]

I was born in Eastleigh ❤

[@AyomaLives]

Awesome!

[@Ahmoranto]

Eastleigh could have been much but because of our KDF airforce base who have limited the high rise eastleigh it could've witnessed transformative changes....

[@AyomaLives]

You mean the high rise buildings are limited? How when they are popping up a lot more lately...or what do you mean?

[@hassangingi7033]

​@@AyomaLivesThere regulations are that you can't build more than 15 story building for security reasons being that it's has close proximity to moi air base

[@AyomaLives]

Oooh, I had no idea.

[@FearlessAfrican]

Today Mogadishu is relatively peaceful and they also need such skyscrapers.

[@FearlessAfrican]

@@Ahmoranto You imagine the houses are more important than the air base and think it should be the one to give way according to this comment?

[@kennedyoriando-wu5ow]

Nice coverage

[@AyomaLives]

Thank you ❤️

[@MicahDaka]

Great coverage. Improved mini town in Nrbi. Government needs to work on congestion.

[@AyomaLives]

Asante
