The president of Kenya Hon Kibaki said "Wewe fanya kazi, na kazi ndio hio, na hio ndio iko. Kwani utafanya ingine gani? translated thus you just have to work and that there is no other work to be done other than work). Kikuyus(one of Kenyan tribes) have given it a serious thought.

Many Kenyans have been travelling abroad to seek
green pastures. Many are nurses who eventually
take their husbands with them. Unfortunately, these
men can't find decent jobs and find themselves doing
the rat race or funny jobs just to make ends meet.
So one of them finds a job as a zoo attendant.
But as there are not many wild animals in UK zoos, the
institution decides to hire people and have them
pretend to be zoo animals - dressed in real animal
skins so as to keep zoo attendance figures up.
One Kikuyu happily takes up one of the jobs
dresses up in a monkey skin doing all sorts of
acrobatics swinging from tree to tree.
As he is busy entertaining people, he accidentally
falls in a lions den. The lion roars so loudly that
the "Monkey" shouts MAMAA WEE!! NISAIDIENI!! NAFA LEO! (My mother save me!)
Then the lion approaches the ALMOST DEAD "monkey" and says "Ni kii we urauga mbu ta mwana?" (what is wrong with you, you are crying like a baby!)

For the resident the event on that day ticket
sales almost doubled!! bcoz people thought it waz a
unique thing to see a monkey chat with a lion.
Yet till now, nobody knew that those animals were
well and trully HOME BOYS!
mmmhh. iko kazi.!! (mmmhh. there is job!) :D
