I don’t know what you heard but just ignore it, it must be all but just fallacies. I like reading captions and memes written on surfaces within the city. That’s how I get to know the mind of the ordinary Nairobian. I usually get my creativity from such things. So when I board matatus that… Continue reading Forget what you heard about bachelors
Things about deleted messages on WhatsApp
I have praised WhatsApp here before for making communication easy. Back in the days if your hommie traveled to America for study or work, you just had to forget about talking to him because it was almost impossible. You would pay a lot just to say hi to them. But with WhatsApp and IG you… Continue reading Things about deleted messages on WhatsApp
Not having beards doesn’t make you less of a man
It is mid November, I don’t know who made it a ‘no shave’ month for men. The pressure to keep cool beards is giving genetically challenged men with smooth chins a series of sleepless nights. When girlfriends take selfies with their boys and post them on IG with that caption of ‘no shave November for… Continue reading Not having beards doesn’t make you less of a man
‘Petty’ Nairobians and Pets
I don’t know what to call people who like pets so I will just call them ‘petty’, in a nice way though. I like observing new trends when I am around neighborhoods in different parts of the city. That is how I get content for my blog. And I must say that I have seen… Continue reading ‘Petty’ Nairobians and Pets
On Pills for Men
Pills eaters, where are you? be it PrEP or PePs…whichever is your drug of choice I don’t know. But let’s just revisit all this stuff. When P2 was introduced, girls went crazy over it swallowing it like groundnuts because apparently ladies don’t fear HIV, what they fear is pregnancy. And that was the street vibe… Continue reading On Pills for Men

Whereas some guys prefer being loud and shouting all over the city, other guys tend to shy away from the spotlight and embrace a quiet lifestyle free of all the drama and public attention. Too much attention comes with a lot of reputation risks and gossips. You want to be the most talked about person… Continue reading On being low-key (kuishi chini ya maji)
On being single for too long
I know you have that one randy friend who keeps jumping from one relationship to another. He is never single. A serial dater. He always has a chic somewhere. And you wonder how he is always with a new flame every time you hang out and get to catch up. And then you have another… Continue reading On being single for too long
Boys! date a girl who likes you
Let me ask you my brother, who is your favorite rapper? I mean the one you liked even before he was signed to any major record label, when he was just releasing mix tapes. The one you would tell your friends about his skills and they would be like “who is that?”. The one you… Continue reading Boys! date a girl who likes you
On early fatherhood in the city
Kids can’t be having kids, I have to start on a high note there. Early parenting is like teenage pregnancy if you ask me. Not something I will advise a brother to do. Despite claims in the street that if you have kids at an early age they are bound to be sharp, I won’t… Continue reading On early fatherhood in the city
