Nairobi by Night. I worked the streets tonight, te Nairobi by Night. I worked the streets tonight, testing the pro feature of my phone's camera as I walked home after a show at Alliance Francaise. Nairobi can be beautiful, when it's not trying to drive you to the slowest, surest forms of insanity.
Over the last two years I lived in a sleepy little Over the last two years I lived in a sleepy little town in rural Central Kenya. I learnt ugly things about myself, as well as beautiful things about the community. Living there broke my heart but it also made me stronger.

“Nimesupport AFC since 2012, na my best memory y “Nimesupport AFC since 2012, na my best memory ya AFC ni when tuliwin GOtv Shield. Nimeenda over 50 AFC games since then and niko na jersey nne za AFC. Nilianza kusupport AFC nikiwa campus cause Gor fans walikua wanasupport their team very loudly, na I wanted to support a different team from them. Cause I’m Luhya, ikawa easy to support them, alafu cause most home games zilikua Nyayo, ilikua easy to attend as nilikua nasoma KMC. This season tumesign many players na we  need time for them to gel, alafu kucheza as a team as opposed to relying on stars pia inatake time. Ata kama leo kuna other events, kama Koroga, I plan my events kabisa, so jana ilikua Fally Ipupa, then leo church alafu game. Football ni therapeutic, ni kama kufall in love, unaget moments where you’re happy alafu others unshangaa did I really sign up for this? Also, the WKPL inaanza in a few weeks, and I want to be invested in AFC Leopards Ladies”

My best memory ya kususpport AFC imekua kuwatch Allan Wanga na Paul Were wakichezea AFC, na ikakua game za AFC staki kuhata. Place mbali nimeenda kuwatch AFC ni Kakamega, nilitoka home uko Mwingi, Kitui nikaenda kuwatch tukiplay against Kakamega Homeboyz, although game haikuisha, game iliisha apo 30th minute na sikubambika na vile iliisha.  This season team haiko poa and tunafaa tuchange coach, juu AFC inaneed coach anaeza handle pressure kama mzungu, juu sai tuko chini sana”

Me nimesupport Shabana since 2017 - Kerubo

Tumesupport Shabana cause that’s the team tulianza kusupport, na club loyalty ni poa, ukianza kusupport team, ni all the way, through thick and thin. Shabana ni team ya mtaa, na lazima tuisupport. Tumeenda far sana kusupport team, like last year tulienda Mombasa mara nne, agiants Modern Coast, SS Assad, Coastal Heroes na Mwatate United, tunajilipia kwa sababu tunapenda team. Tunataka ii season team itupatie a good position kwa league ndio ata sisi tuskie poa kuwasupport, kama top 3 ama top 5”

“Nimesupport Shabana miaka kumi, so nimekua ata “Nimesupport Shabana miaka kumi, so nimekua ata tukiwa hatujapanda NSL. Me husupport Shabana kwa sababu ni team ya mtaa, n ani community team yetu na inatuhitaji, so lazima tuisupport mahali tunaweza. Result ya leo, 1-1 na AFC Leopards, imekua against a strong team, Ingwe wamekua KPL izo miaka zote na sisi hatukua, so point iko sawa leo. Siku ya Shabana inakuja, na siku ikifika mtajua Shabana ilikuja KPL kucontend sio tu kujaza hesabu. Ndio izo teams zingine zikue na support kama ile ya Shabana, lazima mafans wao wapende team, leo ata Shabana ituneed England, sisi tutaenda. Murang’a tulikua, Mombasa tulikua na ata leo ungedhania sisi ndio home team, so team wakituneed, sisi tuko”
