    I will call it double standards that you do not want an unequal share of resources and still expect leaders to make their home areas leafy suburbs. As a member of that constituency, we are stable and thriving, and we will not be compared.

    I come from this place and i can attest that we are way much ahead than other constituencies considering that most lands in these areas belong to residents which makes it hard for the government to build social ammenities.if the government decides to do so it means either grabbing or buy the land from the people and evacuate them. The town is also located on a hill and on an opposite angle with the main road

    Thanks for your insightful videos! I have a suggestion that might add even more value to your content. Consider stopping by the town and speaking with some residents. Ask them about interesting things to see or do, local restaurants, places to stay, and what they love about their town. Highlighting these personal recommendations could really promote tourism and give your viewers an authentic glimpse into the community. Keep up the great work!

    I wish the narrator could have done a good research on the history of these villages , names of the important sons and daughters and historical events of the land.He is possibly not trained in journalism but could teach himself online to sound proffessional. He should also avoid unfounded critisism and inuedos about our views about the contributions of the two former presidents from this village.

We have two universities ie Kenyatta university branch and mama Ngina university, we have best public primary schools after kiharu, 98%of high schools are boarding schools with school buses, about the hospital hope you saw it we have another one called Ng’enda level 4, hope you noticed the main roads and feeder roads, about the building that depends on the owner of the land . For electricity we hardly experience blackouts.

    The national anthem was composed by Reverend Thomas Kalume (a giriama) and Graham Hislop a British clergy l believe. No way the anthem was selected by shool kids from kiambu district. I was a primary kid when Thomas Kalume and Graham were given hongera of the anthem which was based on prayer to Almighty God. Please do your research and transmit correct history of our national anthem. Looks like kikuyu decided to hijack the anthem composition. I also believe the was also a music teacher or professor called Zake also contributed to the national anthem too. We Africans should descipline ourselves when doing a documentary of the country. Watching from UK and am Kenyan.
