Kakamega lies next to a tropical rain forest, the only rain forest in Kenya....it receives the highest amount of rainfall in Kenya...in terms of living, it should rank higher than most towns in Kenya, fresh air, secure, low cost of living, and very clean.

Gosh, last time I was in Kakamega, was in 2004. I first visited in 2001. Loved the people and the town, but I can see the amazing change since then. I’m British, but have lived in the USA since marrying my American husband. Thank you for posting.

Not forgetting the video you did on Butere side where the roads were amazing. The place has undergone great revolution indeed.

Epic kakamega town is one of the few towns with extensive tarmac within the town centers and estates such as amalemba and otiende @dolphine yes I totally agree with you about the words concerning kakamega and the mzungu yes it came from the word Khakhameka....and you forgot the word isikuti also was coined from a mzungu who was very impressed by the isikuti dance and when he saw the dancers he said" IS GOOD'' but the luhyias misinterpreted it as isikuti.🤭🤭🤭🤭🤭in addition ikolomani constituency came about becouse of difficulty in pronouncing Goldmine 🤣🤣🤣 .... shout out to the luhyias .... please don't forget to bring us the updates on the newly constructed level 6 hospital one of the biggest in this region courtesy of whiclife ambetsa oparanya ,I would have wanted to see how the construction of the remaining bukungu stadium terrases,at some point construction had stalled ,how is the construction....
