Islii: The most expensive slum

[Naxar Nugaaleed]

how sad, these Somalis should have spent all that money on their own soil.

Okay,the place smelled terribly! Endend up ruining a pair of good shoes,still trying to get rid of stains on my clothes...I mean is that dust on those roads or something else,it stained my clothes.I kept expecting the tires on the car to bust,the pot-holes on the road are filled with stones!

 

I loved the food though in the restaurants,ciil baa hiliib uu hayee, waan kaa soo deergee!

 

The Somali beggers aa raxadaa igaa qaadee,Somali children and old ladies begging on the streets was hard to see.

 

The nightlife of Eastleigh is something to write home about! am still shocked.

I might be heading there in a month or so, what are the good night clubs?

There are no nightclubs in Eastleigh. But if you wanna explore Nairobi's nightlife then got to Westland(a neighbourhood in Nrbi, locally known as Westy). There you'll find the most popular and booming clubs in one junction. That place rocks at night. And you may meet Nairobi's finest in everything, from chicks to hammers. They've Red tape, Pavement, Rezorus, Black diamond all opposite to each other. You'll surely find many khat-chewing maryooley sitting in their cars. Mark that they only drive tainted Toyota corollas although it's a no no for other kenyans to drive such cars in a posh area like westy.

 

Casablanca(in Hurlingam if am not wrong),with arabian taste, is worth visiting too.

 

But you may pay a visit to Simba saloon in Canivore (Langata) to get a state of Africa's wildlife, from crocodile meat to ostrich oil. This is a serene and a quite restaurant suitable for a night out. Next to it is kenya's famous canivore night club, though outdated lately.

islii has as much future as the rest of east Africa...declining by 2% a year. Somalis are wasting their time and money. rather they should invest in their homeland, where they own the land thus making any additional investment a growth. when u r paying thousands in rent in such disease ridden environment, u r filling water with bottomless bowl.

Sniper soo dhaaf, I haven't seen you since the days of the DC sniper. how's alex.

Shiirka wuu kala adag yahay...

 

Not so fast. Nayroobi ma aadan arkinee. Nayroobi wey shidantahay, abaayadiis. Will share the pictures of downtown Nayroobi in a moment.

Ani shidnaanteeda iyo dansanaateeda kama hadlin, shiirkoodaan ka hadlay...

 

 

Horta teeda kale sababta ma fahmin Soomaalida (majority) meel walbo ee tagaan ey u dagaan meelaha meesha ugu liidato? All around the world, intaa arkay iyo intaan maqlay, be it North America, Europe, Africa, etc. meelaha meesha ugu liito ey sidii qashin isugu shubaan...Every dhiiqo iyo wasaq iyagaa kasoo jeedo...Lacagaa la save gareynaa lee lagu dhahaa meeshaa aragto, while caruurtoodii ey baabe'een...Maxaasen a iga bi'i lahaa lacagta la save gareynaayo hadey kamuuqan leheed! :rolleyes:

[BOB]

KK.... wax waalan...maxaa shiirkooda sanka kala raadisay?

 

 

I used to play football for and with a junior local team called MYSA...we were playing a tournament sponsered by Norwegian missionary and the night before the final the store was broken in all the kits and football boots were stolen...now since the game was already scheduled to go on the next day...the management called the coaches ad the captains of the two teams and asked them to improvise, in other words we were asked to use our imagination and in the end one team was to play with jerseys and the other would go bare chested and wouldn't you know...I was on the team that were to play without jerseys and what a game...the innocence of ciyaalnimo...shiir iyo waxaasba adaa sheegaayo...marnaba waxaas niyadeyda kumasoo dhicin even when we were celebrating our victory and hugging and stuff...Wareegto Luga Cad those were sweet memories

 

 

Kenya will always and forever be my 2nd home Insha Allah.

 

 

PS. Eeeeewwww Garissa...Oh my god...xasuus wallah.

 

 

Peace, Love & Unity.

Ar Sheekh Sharmaarkena maxaa baray night clubs? Waa wareey.

 

Nayroobi has some good, pretty appealing coffee houses. I had been to all three in the tourist area of downtown, just besides the Hilton hotel, who all are isku wada dhow. One of three, Coffee Pub, is owned by Soomaalis. The other two being Java House iyo Dormans. They reminded me Williams Coffee Pub in Koronto.

[nuune]

^^^ Ma ka yaabtey suu Sharmake u taxay all da nice clubs in downtown Westlan

 

 

There is actually about 3 cool night clubs at 12 street, just at the roundhabout there is one, and another one not far from boosteejada basaska waaween just leexadka 12 street, but they ain't as good as the one's in downtown nayrobi

[Oz]

^^ LOL ileen nuune use to go to a very, very famous Eastleigh joint called Mateso Bila Chuki means (Suffering Without Enmity). you went there to listen to Benga jazz and some zaire classics

 

that place in 12th was not a club something worse..

[nuune]

^^^ Waryaa I didn't go those place, I know it was horrible places to be, even markaad ag mareyso meelahaas you can hear all sorts of qeelo iyo cabaad balaayaa isku heesato meeshaas

[MZanzi]

It was a commercial stunt for Nairoberry! But there is no one in Nai that doesn't know (or heard) about westy's junction. Used to hang around there during my heydays(markii aan dhalinyarada ahaa, laakiin never stepped inside). And don't be suprised if you run into your local imam there, offcourse with his khat, sitting inside a tinted corolla. This is wasonjo's (specially walendos) favourite junction. You never know whom you'll run into at that place.

 

Aside from those smelly ethiopian joints, I've never heard or seen a nightclub in isli (maybe coz i lived far from that place n wasn't my fav place)..except for the casino in 9th street;does it have a nightclub inside?.

 

You must have paid a visit to Solar lodge..lol.. since you were fond of going to 12th. We spent a night there enroute to Kisumu for a science congress event. Lots, lots of activities, I tell you.

 

NB; It stood on where Baraka lodge stands now.

 

Lol@number 9 as another nightclub..I remember I used to wait for my fav 9 for hours when going to isli n then go round tao/isli by it before I catch my other mat...they rocked. Had to experience the feeling during my recent trip to Kenya. No changes, still crazy n all da same. Although hewa zao hazibambi ka zamani nami nimekuwa mbuyu. No old school as we were used to.
