Kibera slum is located in Nairobi, Kenya. Its original settlers were the Nubian people from Kenyan/Sudanese boarder.
It is the biggest slum in Africa, and the third biggest slums in the world with a population of over 2million.
The slum has shacks which are made from mud, woods, rusty corrugated roof, concrete floor or debris, and view blocked with concrete.
20% of Kibera dwellers have electricity and before now dwellers collect water from dam, until water were provided through pipes by the government and world bank. There are no toilet facilities in kibera, dwellers dig holes (latrine) and shared by shacks. There are no government own hospitals.
Interesting. Even if this scenario is way worse than d conditions in Ajegunle, A-j city is still a slum cos it ticks all d boxes given by United Nations for a place to b called a slum.

Deletethere are very good houses in A-J city, even soon with well accessible road, and even water. so it is still far better place to live than kibera
But ajegunle May just be worse than this. What do they mean by "have electricity" does it mean 20% of it has been electricified and has constant power? If so dem better oh
