Fit to report - welcome to 麻豆社 Nairobi

Meet Kenya鈥檚 language teams, and hear stories of camels, wigs, markets and tastes of home

Join David Amanor in the 麻豆社鈥檚 Nairobi bureau, home to six different language services. Find out what people's names can tell us: David Wafula鈥檚 surname tells us he was born in the rainy season, Bashkas Jugsodaay鈥檚 name contains a World War II story, and Cyuzozo Samba is called 鈥榣ast born鈥�, although he has two younger siblings!

Plus stories close to our colleagues' hearts: twins, wigs and camels with Hamida Aboubakar, Issa Abdul and Sharon Machira.

And join Roncliffe Odit on a personalised My Home Town tour of his favourite places in Nairobi: Toi Market, Uhuru Park, and a Swahili restaurant.
