For many Kenyans, Christmas has always been the happiest time of the year. It is a season that is cherished for its festive music, delicious chapatis, bright new clothes, and joyous family reunions. Memories of the 90s and early 2000s evoke a nostalgic sense of magic-a time when the air was filled with the aroma of pilau and nyama choma as children blew balloons, sang carols, and played freely in their new outfits. Shopping with siblings for new clothes and shoes was a highlight for many, as was the chance to spend days with extended family in shagz.
