Okay. Wewe ni “youth” according to kenyan politicians. You still would have fathered most of Ktalkers here.
Early childhood, tulikuwa tunaenda ocha na Nyayo Bus - na saa hiyo mzazi anainsist mtoto (even one with sprouting beards and a broken voice) ni sare. A journey that takes us 2.5 - 3 hours max by car nowadays used to take the whole day
