Weird Kenyan Habits

Wacha tuseme the country is back to normalcy (Normal? Kenya? In the same sentence?) we can go back to the peculiar habits of Kenyans. We all know the very many peculiar things Kenyans like.

1.) Staring! Kenyans will stare at anything. A fighting couple, an accident, a dog thats been hit by a car, a car thats been hit by a dog, ANTHING! The only thing you should stare at right now is Raila's motorcade. Thats new.

2.) Repeating words. "Tulikutana na yule jamaa pa? Pale. Nikamwambia anilitee zile cargo ili nimpli? Nimlipe. Halafu akakataa hizo sto? Story!" And on and on and on and on. So next time you want to tell someone something, usirudierudi? Rudie!

3.) Snobbing celebs. The one thing about this country that I love is the fact that Kenyans will meet a celeb on the street and walk on unpertubed. At best, they just turn and ask? Huyo ni Wyre? And the person next to them sez,"Mgani?"

4.) Bargaining! Kenyans bargain with evryone about evrything. Thank God supermarkets have been established with fixed prices. We would all be waiting so long in the queue as the buyers engage the cashiers in a bargaining orgy!

5) Desire to be ordinary? Well watch news and you wil wonder who mwananchi wa kawaida is. Petrol goes up and they interview motorists in their big fat cars and they then say, "Sisi kama wananchi wa kawaida tunaumia." Hike the cost of Kerosene and they interview evryone on the streets and everyone says, "Sisi wananchi wa kawaida....." Ask a politician about this or that government policy and they say, "The government should subsidize the cost of doing business in Kenya, we as ordinary Kenyans are suffering!" So who is ordinary!
