Swahili Television in Kenya

One of the Kenyan TV shows attracted more viewers gathered in front of the boob in that country is “This is not fair,” a program broadcast in Swahili on Wednesday afternoon. Inma, during his trip to Kenya had the opportunity to see some peculiar episodes of the program, the Black and white TV with the “house” where he was “staying”.

The program in question is a series of educational, teaching good manners to viewers in different social situations, where you can find an inhabitant of the country. The issue that I was commenting Inma was entitled “How to behave in the library” (a Inma it translated).

For the laughs we listened as he told me, it seems that is a pretty funny seen by a Westerner. The chapter of the week, starring a man who entered a library, where four people were concentrated in a very heady in reading their books. Upon entering the room, begins to sing (all provided in Swahili), then the camera focuses on the readers, who devolved by the chants of the new visitor, looking with his face twisted and tut the scandalizer.

As you can imagine, the staging of the program is a waste of resources, and at that time the announcer shouts “This is not fair,” followed by a repetition of the same phrase for a children’s choir: “This is not fair “” This is not fair “and explained to the visitor who sings, the because of his wrongdoing.

The program continues throughout their duration to the same scene starring cleaning ladies, policemen, etc.. Trying to understand the Kenyan population, as people should behave in a library.
