The city under the sun, Nairobi, is one of the best cities to enjoy life until the rainy season knocks.
With the bad roads and poor drainage, you will curse the rains and question the creator of the clouds, and most probably if you have no car to ride in.
Walking along some Nairobi roads during the rainy season is the same as walking in a forest full of wild animals and ghosts.
Early in the morning, some car owners will hit the overflown potholes without care and drive recklessly through pools of water leaving you in a 'baptizing' event.
What's worse is that they don't stop to apologize; they speed off leaving you in utter shame.
Small models such as Vitz, Honda Fit, and the infamous Toyota Probox are the best ‘players’ in the game.
But as personal vehicles are widely condemned for this behaviour, public service vehicles have a fair share in this mishap quite common during the rainy season.
If you have ever been a victim of this rogue behaviour by some Kenyan drivers, you are well versed with the look your colleagues at work give you when you walk in with a stained outfit.
As if this is not enough, you board a matatu in the evening on your way home and it drops you next to another pool of water. Left with no choice, you wade through the pool of muddy and smelly water but ask yourself, "did they expect me to swim?"
