Everyday life in Kenya's capital Nairobi | DW Documentary
The bridge crosses over a busy freeway in Kenya’s capital, Nairobi. If you’re looking for vegetables, a bowl of hot soup, a haircut, or even a new bed, you can find it here. But now, the bridge is to be torn down.
The bridge provides a vital link between the slum district of Kangemi and more prosperous parts of the city. ARD’s Nairobi bureau…

the translator did a bad job. good documentary though.
I like how the grand parents get up and start dancing, while in the Western world the Elders sit down
Nobody gets rich at Farmers Markets- not even in America. You have to control all the farmers – 10 companies own the global food system (business insider 2017) they’re rich! The green wall in Africa and the food forests is just so you won’t die. Waste Management and Water Quality and conservation are also essential. Africa, India and China have the most human beings to care for. You can compost anything natural – even poop, bodies and natural fibers and food waste…but not by or in the water.
I feel so sad for them either they all had a happy ending
Imagine you graduate but no job, so sad
Beautiful African people very Hard life lord Krishna bless Africa and African people love from Bharat 💕💕❤️❤️

start freelance journalism Said
The disgusting part of the western media is their obsession to display Kenya and Africa as poor.They couldn't go film runda,Livingston, kileleshwa, Karen or showcase the iconic buildings in Kenya. They forget to show the KICC building, The national archives, CBD, etc.Biased western media.
Great story 😊
The Old China Virus.
This should have been called 'Everyday life in Kangemi' because it's s not the whole truth about life in Nairobi. I wish you sampled different people, social classes and parts of the city.
Please don’t believe everyone is suffering like this in Africa. I don’t like it when they do all the nonsense documentaries showing the poor sides always but in their country they will show the beautiful side.
I'm a bit concerned about the language translations that BBC has chosen to not translate. Some of the words stated in Swahili completes the thought process and allows that audience to understand that Kenyans are intelligent thinking people. Its a problem across all western Media houses. Very unfortunate.
The stress Saidi must be under because of the pressure
This was an eye opening and very insightful documentary
Why you not showing the other side the rich ones you biases
I wish the government would support these people working hard. Create jobs so they can earn. Start exporting, Kenya is a very rich land in terms of natural resources but also rich in it's human resources. The people can generally speak English. They need to provide investment havens for outside companies for call centres etc.
I wish for countries like mine and Kenya to actually get governments that care about their country and it's people. Love from Pakistan 🇵🇰 ♥ 🇰🇪
Good documentary but the title should read "everyday life in kenyan slums"
This is an anti-African sentiment, You international media groups show news and documentaries of the dark side of the African continent, why should you say that rain results in power cuts? and in addition that bridge in Kangemi was brought down to expand the road.
12:42 that boy could easily be you with your dreams,
"It's all about your mindset. If you think positively , things will work out and you have to be patient."
I live in Nairobi, but you should have been clear that you are filming one of the miniature outskirts of Nairobi. This is not a proper representation of Nairobi. Do better
Damn?
This is Nairobi, Kenya's Capital??
Kenya is a very poor country.
My country Nigeria is poor too, but no where near this bad.
Wow, to think one overpass could be so essential to a city. If you live anywhere in US / Canada, you often see those and don't think anything.
The scamdemic was used to hurt so many people around the world.
Good Morning Maria..William Harry & Batman in NYC…#Londonspyrosa1776..Smile wifey..lol
Hell dogs don't poop where they eat !
They poop in their water come on take that to a designed place so you don't have to eat you're own poop
Ok but it's that tough and you find them making kids what's wrong with that?
Who is supplying the drugs for people to get addicted to?
Omg look how scared they are of covid 🙄… Why so easily brainwashed in Kenya?
Everyday life in Nairobi, that's a bad caption. I've lived here for 22 years, and that's not how everyday life seems like 😕
Peace and love for our Kenyan brothers and sisters … love from Texas
My BFF is moving to Kenya today from England 💗💗❤️🤝💙
Wow
I wish DW News can also post the full 2015 documentary. The link that was there on their website is broken. This is a great documentary and an excellent initiative. The stagnation in the lives of our people is a stinging indictment of our corrupt government.
My town. The place i call home.
The disinfectant tunnel doesn't do anything to prevent Covid.
very nice doc, high quality. Congratulation and thaks
Next time show us the other side of Nairobi.you pple focus only on slum lives.
As Always DW documentary team did their best to highlight the struggles of people who are normally forgottten by normal journalist. Thank you for this wondeful episode.
DW deciding to call Kangemi Nairobi still baffles me
