Award for Ghetto Radio reporter at YWAS, Harare

A couple of months ago I received an email from a former Ghetto Radio correspondent in Zimbabwe asking me to submit my application for the Young Women’s African Summit (YWAS).

This did not come as a surprise to me being a young African woman, and having worked with young women’s initiatives in my country, but what disturbed me was the venue of this ground breaking event. Zimbabwe? Nevertheless I submitted my application almost immediately and a few months later, received a confirmation that I had qualified to be one of the representatives of my country.
 
Ziwani: Where the guns were silent (Nairobi)
Wednesday, 16 January 2008

Image The post-election violence that swept across Kenya like the a tsunami was felt deeply in Nairobi and in no other areas more than the ghettos.

Kibera, Mathare, Huruma, Kariobangi, Dandora, Kayole, Mukuru and Eastleigh are some of the ghettos that witnessed heavy fighting and suffered the highest casualties. These are also the political hotbeds of the city.

As residents who have been born and raised in the same neighborhood tore into each other along tribal, political and social class lines, one neighborhood with a history of being one of the most notorious in the city, refused to be drawn into the conflict.

 
Kibera, after the elections - Nairobi

I was born and brought up in Kibera’s Olympic Estate, and that’s where I’ve called home for the past 26years. In all those years I’ve known peace, harmony and co-existence.

I look now at the ruins that were once shops, business premises burnt to the ground, peoples’ homes demolished, property vandalized, and people forcefully evicted and slain.
