Nairobi Today

Modern Nairobi is still the safari capital of Africa, but the modern world has quickly caught up with the city. A frontier town no more, Nairobi has become one of Africa’s largest, and most interesting cities. Nairobi is a city that never seems to sleep.

Quotes

 "Kilimani is my
Central Business District"
Jerry Okungu, Chief Executive, African Cancer Foundation

“Most of Kilimani is still a non-place to most people. It is a space that you travel through to get somewhere else.
We need to connect and value the rich diversity of all the people and the character of this area and its landmarks”
Kiliresident Kahare Miano

“Kilimani is more than unfinished buildings and roads, potholes and traffic jams.
It is also place
of laughter, dancing
and beautiful people”
Ann McCreath,
Chief Creative Officer,
Kiko Romeo
