Hundreds of Nairobi residents took to various entertainment joints and recreational parks to celebrate Christmas Day on December 25, 2024.
Many chose to stay in the city rather than travel upcountry, citing the high cost of living and increased travel expenses.
Popular spots such as the recently renovated Uhuru Park, Jee-van-Jee Gardens, and City Park were filled with families and friends enjoying the festive atmosphere. Some attendees expressed their disappointment over the economic challenges that made traveling to their rural homes unaffordable.
