You have a good description of a place. Keep up enlightening and educating us. Make a point of visiting Muranga especially Kangema, so many ghost towns.

I Thank you for the wonderful work you are doing educating people. I was raised and lived in Kawangare in the 1960's when almost everyone knew everyone since the place was sparsely populated. We were told then that at one point, there were lots of Francolins- wild birds (Ngware) in the area hence the name Kwa-ngware. There were coffee farms in some areas plus open fields where people grazed especially on the way to Muslim village.. Sweet memories The place has changed dramatically.

[@Villagetotowntv]

Wow, thank you for the good info. Sweet old days

Glad you enjoyed. Thank you

Wow l was raised in kanungaga in the middle between Gatina, though l walked to school at kileleshwa primary, and Aga Khan High school. Thanks for this episode, bringing back some old memories. It looks totally different and I'll have to visit the next time l come back home.

[@Villagetotowntv]

Thank you for sharing your memories, good old days

I think the word is not Congo the country but Kongo. Kimani Kongo was a commissioner with Nairobi city council before establishment of counties and he must have been instrumental in establishing that village. Even in kahawa west he played a pivotal role in starting a similar planned village with same name Kongo.

[@Villagetotowntv]

Oh really? Wow! Thanks for the info! Now we are in the know🙏🏼

[@georgeikinya2779]

@@Villagetotowntv welcome, indeed kimani Kongo must be a round. He was one the youngest progressive but abrasive commissioners in the 1990s. Very passionate in slum upgrading then. Suddenly disappeared out of the radar when NARC swept in

🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣WUEH THIS IS INTERESTING ESPECIALLY THE ''STINKING BOTTOMS'' IN KAWANGWARE ESTATE.

That label slum is extremely annoying. It sounds like something a southern white American would use to define okay homes in Africa.

[@mungaigithothero5932]

kumbe hizi bus za kencom zinaendanga na huko

You covered only kawangware north where alachi is mp dominated by luhya people from western kenya,who fundraising in the streets for a burial of somebody,the other bigger part the mp is john kiarie,and even larger parts of Kawa aware 👍

[@Villagetotowntv]

Thanks for the info..I really tried to understand what those guys were fundraising for and I could not get it

[@allanopiyo.8154]

There is nothing like "Kawangware North" or something. Kiarie is in DAGORETI South that stretches/starts from the other side of Naivaisha road. Actually the larger Riruta Setlight, Kabiria,Waithaka and the stretch towards Ng'ong Racecourse ndio area ya John Kiarie.

[@jeddywakane]

Good work. But this hood is much much bigger. You've only recorded a small piece of 56 and 46.

[@Villagetotowntv]

Really? It must be big then

[@jeddywakane]

@@Villagetotowntv Yes. The actual slums of Gatina Kanungaga alone are equivalent to the area you covered, stretching deeply along the Lavington border, contributing to Kawangware 56. Kawangware 46 especially the one along Naivasha Road, from Congo-Deliverance all the way to Naivas is another huuuuge area with residents on both sides of the road and harboring the magnificent Kawangware Market.
