So was born in 2002 Our Father is Prison officer Then Mama Etu is a medical lab technician. So because of your father's job, you were a prison warder. A visit to the prison staff quarters She went to the prison headquarters. So, the Industrial Area Remand Prison in Nairobi. Then tuka moved to Kamiti For what work reason Sentenced to jail So, this is the beginning of Kamiti. I'm still waiting for the package. So, industrial area Meishi Makaminga? 15 years For the sake of the child Which year did you come from Kamiti? 2017 Maisha prison What's up? Ordinary life is ordinary life Because I don't know if you've ever experienced kama umewai Kuishi inje ya prison So you guys have no idea what it feels like When life How are you today? She is normal. Your other ordinary estate I don't know any security personnel Where is it? Sometimes prisoners have to do cleaning. At the place where the farm work is done, I am here We understand There are usual doors here. Hello I'm gated but I know everything All social amenities日の出の光が、海面にきらめく。 Supermarkets Maduka You're not normal, you're a villain Maskari is everywhere all the time Living in a prison Mbapo has people You know they've been corrected in a way How has it shaped you people? Like your personalities Do you guys ever feel like you're too good? Too strict in adhering to rules Ama, at some point you find yourself Bending some rules I would say we have been too good. Very good You know what it's like to live in a prison They are called disciplined forces. When you are alone in the house Discipline And the children are not alone They are in the community. So you find discipline everywhere And also when you see how someone has been arrested You see the value of freedom. You don't want to do something wrong And then get arrested Because it's not a good place. To be arrested Have you guys ever in any way Let's start from the industrial area. Did you guys ever interact with People who were locked up Yes When we were in the industrial area They used to come and do odd jobs. Then they would leave. But up until now, before Corona We were allowed to enter. We used to go to a juvenile Called YCTC And Kamae Girls We used to talk to them. They would tell us the value of freedom. We would learn from their mistakes. We would interact Let me get this straight You were born Your parents lived in the prison. Because they are wardens In your life Have you ever committed even the smallest of crimes? Let alone those at home There are some minor crimes. For example My director might tell you You have committed a crime. So you guys have never done that. No, we have never committed any crime. I have never committed any crime. That has led to me Going to the prison Even the minor crimes At home But crime that leads me to go to prison I have never And how would you say Life is In the prison Have you ever wished I wish we could live in the prison. Just out there So that I might perhaps experience Another type of life Sometimes I feel that way. Because I want to invite my friends To listen to what I have to say They are scared. When they reach the gate They find many guards with guns They are frightened. So sometimes I feel I wish I could live outside. So that when I invite someone They come without fear Even if you take them to the gate When we walk to the gate You feel the fear But over time we got used to it That's where we are. Is it limited in any way? The kind of friends you have Or the number of friends you guys have It has not Like some people are your friends And when they find out You live outside, they get scared. Not at all When you have friends They will understand that your parent is a prison guard. That's why you live in the prison staff quarters. So all our friends know That our parents are prison wardens And that is how we live So whenever we invite them They're down, they come So there's no problem with that Most people who live outside the prison When they get into The prison environment For example I invite someone like Mungai Eve To come and walk with them Her being there I believe there is some fear. Because you are interacting with people That you haven't been interacting with So I want to know When you're just free with them Just like the prison guards You guys don't feel like You are scared. Do you feel like Sometimes they write Things like that We don't feel that way. Because when we are at home We are with our dad And our neighbors How they behave at work It is very different from How they behave toward us When they talk to prisoners They talk to civilians So it's completely different There is no restriction. Does it bother you when you leave the prison? Feel like the life out here Is it weird? It's somehow different Because you have created a gated community There's security everywhere You can walk around with your phone. So when you leave You must be extra cautious. Because there is no security You have created Sometimes I feel like there's Luthophobia Anyway, I also want to know Something regarding you all Interacting with people You said that you guys Used to do that before Corona 熘 An interesting story One person Ever told you that You might want to share There's this girl I think she's probably already been released by now. She told us She was a burden. To her parents So whenever she gets a chance She would leave. She said there are no drugs. From hard drugs She used them all. One day, her parents were shocked. She was taken. To the police station The legal process Before going to prison So she was taken to the police station. The plan was to beat her up. The police gave her a bag. She didn't have a bag. The police gave her a bag. So she was charged As a drug dealer So she was given a bag. Yes She was the one who took the bag. I don't know what she was thinking So she told us she regretted it. Taking the bag Because her mother took her to the police station To beat her up So that she can go home So she said she regretted it. But when she reached Kamae She was taught by the police. It's not a correctional facility. So all her bad habits Were corrected So now she's released. I think she's living a good life So there's another one She was living with a stepmother. So she was sent away. So she agreed with her friend. To help her find a job So her friend gave her a bag. Then after some time Her stepmother came out. And told her the boy had been beaten up. Those were the bags. She was given those bags. Since she had been beaten up Her mother heard about it. So she was taken to court. She was arrested. She had evidence. It was an advantage for her. Because she was arrested for three months So she was arrested. And since she had no place to go She was taken to school. She completed her studies. And now she has a job. So for her, it was an advantage. The fact that she was arrested Freedom is expensive. So when we are out We are not allowed to go to places. To do things You must have that freedom with all your heart Because once you enter the prison Those who are at their maximum They say they can see the prison. Because you sleep at night You enter the prison. And before you enter They say freedom is expensive. When you have it with all your heart Because life is not easy Despite it being a correctional facility You are a prisoner. You will not be corrected. Softly They will use all the measures. To make you the good person society wants So when you have freedom Guard it with all your heart That is a valuable lesson. It's also about freedom. Because of the kind of life they endure You know someone was striving to graduate from high school. To go to campus But when you do something wrong It all shatters Once you enter the prison You and the walls and your fellow prisoners There is nothing you can do When you are out So for me, it's also about freedom. The value of freedom That is very nice I would also like to know Have you ever eaten food from prison? When we were walking At Kamaiga The food was good. I don't know why But it was good And did you eat the same food? Yes, chapati, maragwe And mchele The ones who cook At Kamaiga? But that one is for the juvenile? Not for the maximum-security prison? No, the maximum prison You need to have an ID. And since we have turned 18 We have not entered And what are you all doing? What do you all do? Where have you studied? We were in high school. St. George's Girls Right now we are waiting to join campus. St George's Nairobi We are waiting I think it's on Monday. We don't know what's next But I want to pursue Education in Mathematics and Computer Science Okay, what about you? Pursuing education in English and French Why? You've been doing the same thing since you were kids. Why are you all splitting up? It happened The interest in subjects I was more interested in languages. So I chose English and French. And she does more math and computer science. So you don't Love Maths more than Computer So that is The only difference you all feel like you have Yes Have you guys ever found yourselves liking the same things? And disliking the same things? Yeah When we were in high school We were prefects. I was the school captain. Throughout high school, we were prefects. When we were kids, we used to write poems. We stopped in 2017 But we used to write poems Now we do public speaking Talking to people I have been with Francisca Mwajala And Florence Anjala Achala I have had a good time. I hope you all have learned something. About prison life It's been so much fun interacting with the twins. And as I said I might be bringing other twin editions So guys, stay tuned Your Entertainment PA signing out
