That thumbnail is actually Mukuyu village. The houses with green and red iron sheets belong to Mama Ida's (former prime minister's wife) parents. The estate ahead is called Jamaica estate(there was a young businessman who would play Glen Washington's song 'Jamaica' on repeat mode, and that's how the estate got it's name. The entire village is called Mukuyu and it's predominantly inhabited by the Maragoli of the larger Abaluhya tribe although there are of course Luo and the Abagusii.
