Jeff Koinange and Jalang'o Speak On the 'Annoying' Behaviors of Kenyans in the US [VIDEO]

So Jeff, what is the “annoying” behavior does Kenyans in the US have according to your video, when they visit home? Finding that they have been conned by their relatives? Is that the annoying behavior according to you? And you think that is funny?

No comment; sometimes silence is the best intervention to a major problem.

Is it true that Jeff is muuaji Raila,majambazi Orengo and Miguna's inlaws having sold them separate pieces of his inherited land grabbed by his expired Grandfather,Koinange wa Mbiyu?Jeff should know that not all people got inheritance and worse still-corruptly grabbed wealth from poor people of Kiambaa Division.

There we go again" Kenyans in US " we have heard it before Jeff, nothing original....next...

How is this funny? Jeff, you are supposed to be sympathising with these folks..

Sometimes ni kweli cant remember last time I had a conversation na neighbour..kutoka hivi gari nanguruma chui chui..umeishia..kurudi park gari angalia mailbox chui chui..home kula..but now with technology..google maps what's up video skype atleast you can authenticate yr small investment contrary to kitambo where means of communication ilikuwa barua ama simu..Kazi +254 ni kujuana ..50% by 50% kuna advantages na disadvantages one strikes a balance.

After watching and listening to the video carefully, I can say there is a lot of truth in the conversation. Work in the US even though you can make good money is equivalent to legalized slavery. No time to rest or relax. Work, work and more work and you would not even know your next door neighbor. Arrest my case but Kenya is easier.

Many manjuu people educate their younger brothers & sisters back home. Without hiyo madouble their brothers/sisters would be at home not going to school

@Sokwe I agree with yooo 10000%.Modern slaverly in majuu u see a 50/60/70 old Kenyan still working his ass off to pay mortgages which will never end.Kama angeivest hapa home then come back at 55/60 he/she will b enjoying his last God given days.I have said majuu is good but it’s only good if u make cash quick or study then pack n come home especially after investing kakitu otherwise ur dummed for many years to come.Slaverly Slaverly Slaverly.

And still Jeff forgot to leave his twang in America

The issues I have with this kind of generalization is ; there are many Kenyans who are not working odd jobs in every state in the USA especially in the East coast, DMV alone ( Mla Chake feel free to make fun of DMV)I know doctors, Pharmacists, CPAs, Directors of companies, owners of small businesses , Phd'S Scientists who have normal 8-5 jobs earning six figures. Now ,I understand there are those hustling and that is okay but to always report one side of the story for a "journalist" like Jeff to score points is irresponsible. There are many reasons why people just visit Kenya and not move to Kenya; spouses, kids ( enjoying the many free advantages for kids that Kenya can never offer ), lifestyles - not everyone is a Nyama choma, drinking person or show off in Malls( overrated), but love to have a community center with everything free on it including a gym , tennis courts, walking trails , neighborhood shopping center akin of the HUB, free Olympic size swimming pools, 911 and ambulances at the touch of the button etc. So to shallowly just have a 3 minute dialogue for laughs shows how immature Jeff Koinange is. Also , some folks yes are afraid to come back when they have not really created a haven for retirement which is equivalent to what they get here even in low / middle income neighborhoods. Some have medical reasons why they need to stay here to be taken care of- care they would never have in Kenya; speaking of which, why do all these rich people coming here for treatment if Kenya ni baba na mama. Jeff came here and left, comfortably adjusted in Kenya because his life was set since he was born, not everyone was born with a silver spoon and some find themselves having the obligation to stay here and uplift their relatives through their hustle. Why is Lupita Nyongo here still, is it because we have thriving Kenyawood industry that can accommodate her? Mmh Jeff answer that, why were you here working for CNN until you were fired and no one would hire you , not even a local station ? Folks like Jeff with their shallow outlook in life and simplifying situations are failures! And that whoever he is singing and enjoying the humor, were it not for his break ( he should thank his Karma), he would be filling green card forms every year and hoping he can get one way ticket from the hard life he had. So he needs to shut up - he is a few lucky Kenyans. A lot of Kenyans would love to be in our shoes. So Jeff Koinange since you started it, can you please have session about the Kenyans making it in USA but chose to still live in America because it provides 1000% more than you ever get in Kiambu, Parklands, Mountain view, Kitsusuru(sp) or even that Karen and looks at Kenya as play ground like Prince William or Harry? Thank you

Kenyans in USA to do not dance to the same tune.Our idiosyncrasies are as diverse as those you find in the whole of Kisumu or Nairobi.
If somebody in Kansas annoyed you,please do not use the same broad brush to smear Diaspora in Illinois,or FLorida...
Having said this, I think its infantile to go around thinking that since you are majuu you are better that Kenyans on the " mainland".
Remember even if you become a citizen,or hold a green card. Hapa si kwako. SO tread with humility.There are many Kenyans in diaspora(USA) who have totally wasted their opportunity to make something for themselves.while there are Kenyans who never got that opportunity and could have made the best of it. Most will agree with me that diaspora are seeking opportunities that are hard to come by in Kenya,or at the time of their departing, these opportunities were rare;and of course there are other reasons as well...
So let's respect each other knowing that we came from all different walks to arrive here in the USA.Yes some came easily via connections and rich families albeit weak scholastic arhievements.But we are here, let's respect one another,and not delve in one's business.Dont worry what I do, worry what you do. My two cents.

Man i don't know what kind of a job where people make six figures without a sweat. Take for example a retail pharmacist, salary in DC area is 120k but believe me you have to really sweat for it. You have to be on your feet all day from the punch in to punch out, sometimes no lunch and the sweating compensate for a bathroom break hence you may stay all day without one. Two three years , the knees are screaming. The high figure sometimes its not worthy. Its out of experience, i worked for CVS, Rite Aid and Walgreen, not a big difference between them. Just be satisfied and live a regular life since money will never be enough.

I just wonder why Koinange bothers with what i do.Does he have any job for me in Kenya?How many people from his MBARI YA NJUNU clan has he helped get jobs in his many connections?How many does he employ?WHO IS KOINANGE TO ME?

At those hating on Jeff, please watch the whole clip before demonizing the brother. Jalas is the one always taking a dig at diaporans (and I dare say with good reason sometimes). I am team Jeff on this one as I watched the whole clip days before this was pasted here. Overall, I found it hilarious! Further, people back home are entitled to their opinion, just like we bemoan about them here at Mwakilishi, c'mon now!

I dont care what they say these idlers..They dont understand how it feel like to take care loved ones. They all think of quick riches. Man yall should be talking about issues such as sugar containing mercury and stealing from every department in kenya..

U make 6 figure they r yours n yours alone!You work at Walmart or group home,cna jobs,lecturer all your choice but the biggest reminder is always know home is n east or west home is the best.So do something back home coz even with yr phd when u hit 60/70 trust me 10000x it will b hard to call USA/uk/Canada home at your age n u will love to belong or return this kenya who have hated so heavily??The reality remains 98.8 of Majority immigrants r hustlers in the West.
