Let’s talk about sponsors, sugar daddies, sugar mummies, Nigerians and the women of Kenya! It is a known fact, Nigerians can never live anywhere without being conspicuous for whatever reasons; positive or negative. Almost everybody all over the world knows at least a Nigerian, for good or for bad. In Kenya everybody knows a Nigerian….
Where do we start during this, the latest Africa Web TV’s trip to Kenya. Well let’s start at with our visit to the Kenyatta International Convention Centre (KICC). The KICC in itself is impressive but standing atop the 105-metre building, one becomes a witness to a spectacular view of Nairobi that many visitors and tourists…
Dear James, I am writing you this as a result of the picture you posted in a Facebook group we both belong to. I think the picture tells a poignant story. I have read the reactions so far. As to be expected, they vary from disbelief to denial, from acknowledgement to acceptance. Some reactions are…
Last day in Nairobi and it feels like I just arrived yesterday. To those who might not know it, I am in love with this city. It is the only place in Africa that truly feels like home. In fact it is home to me now. I have travelled to several countries in Africa. 3…
There I am again. Being quiet in the past days is not because there is nothing to report. It is actually because so much is going on there is hardly any time to catch one’s breath! Finally today, I had the day to myself and decided to just stay in my hotel apartment and do…
It is day 4 of my visit to Nairobi and it was one of the most interesting so far. I was a VIP (yes!) guest at the final of the Impala Floodlit Rugby Tournament 2015. I am not a rugby fan at all. In all fairness, I hardly watched any of the matches but the…
The National Archives building is always my reference point when in Nairobi. That was where I was going to meet Christine today before going onwards to our place of discussion. Today I could see that there was a kind of photo exhibition going on outside the building called “Why We Do What We Do” by…
Today was my first full day in Nairobi and it was my lazy day. I decided I was just going to take the day off and chill. I am staying in one of those travellers’ hotel this time around. It is in the middle of the bustling heart of Nairobi city. On my previous visits…
There is a first time for everything. Today was the first time I almost missed a flight. The curious thing was that I was at the airport at least 1.5 hours before the flight was scheduled to take off and still I almost missed the flight. Here is the story. I was on my way…
Let’s be honest, when you hear the word “Somalia” what are the first thoughts that come to mind? War, lawlessness, poverty, hunger, pirates, failed state and most of all, bombings, terrorism and Al-Shabbab are the things many associate with Somalia. While all of the above are true in varying degrees, the fact is that there…
Sent in by Iniobong Usanga This is my personal story and you can share it to help inspire other women like me in the past. Rising above adversity and healing from pain is possible in every body. But the key in my opinion is my and your decision. We have to make the personal choice…
Africa Web TV is 3 today! To commemorate the 3rd anniversary of Africa Web TV, we are launching a light-hearted project called Smiles of Africa. It is to capture the beautiful ways African (black) people smile/laugh. This project has been in the pipeline for years. There was however one piece of the puzzle missing; a…
