You were actually driving! Yaani on the driver’s seat. You could be worse than a guy on the phone.
True dat. But that was one of those traffic jams where we stopped for 10 minutes. I actually took around 10 photos and with the light being so low, each photo was around 2 seconds. I had to do something. It is very boring seating in traffic
I have a dream, that one day this nation in the sun will conquer its development challenges, i have a dream, that one day fly-overs and fly-unders will part of our highway spectacle, i have a dream………
hey Josh, your pics capture the scenes the communicate the fabric that is kenya, keep it up great Job
@Chebosi Thanks a lot. I hope we will get to achieve our dreams as a nation.
Ahh, the infamous Nyayo Stadium / Lusaka roundabout no? Great shot Josh!
Thanks Hash.
this is a great looking site and nice initiative, congrats!
Nice pic, though you may want to blur out the licence plate of that vehicle
Hey Josh,
How about netting those traffic cops who have made our lives hell on eath by
demanding bribes left right and centre.It might make them know that briberly is
not part of their proffession!!
Good work keep it up
I like Omandi’s idea. Maybe that can be used one day when our justice system actually works!
@ Joshua : I can see you are one of those who appreciate traffic jams
@ Chebose : I believe we will achieve our dreams. We are slowly waking up from deep sleep. I always see a lot of development whenever I visit and I can tell you we are much much ahead than most African countries. You should come to West Africa then you will never complain but appreciate the progress we are doing.
@ Omandi and Joliea : I am sorry guys but I do not really agree with you. Why do we have to bribe them especially when you know you are on the right? Who is corrupt? For me the giver and the taker are equally corrupt. So ofcourse bribery according to them is part of their profession because it is given to them. The day we shall ALL REFUSE to give bribes (no matter the situation) then you will see how things will change. It is a sacrifice we have to make! It is for us to change things. Those are just my opinions.
