Why Fardosa doesn't want to return to Kakuma
The mother of four, who was fascinated by tall city buildings, numerous cars, and human traffic after arriving in the big city, boldly said she wouldn't be returning home.
"Napenda (I love) Nairobi. I don't know Kakuma. Nataka kukaa hapa na Lulu (I want to stay here with Lulu)," she said during the interview, leaving the host in stitches.
Lulu asked Fardosa: "You aren't going back to Kakuma? What about your kids?"
"I don't want to go back. I love it here. I want to live with you here. Shangazi will take food to my kids," Fardosa insisted.
Asked what she loves about Nairobi, she said:
"I want to stay in Nairobi because I eat nice food. Plenty of milk and meat," she shared.
Apoo, a mother of seven, on the other hand, said she would go back to Kakuma with Shangazi to see her children.
Below is the video:
Shangazi, who travelled with the duo, shared a video of them sleeping on a cosy bed and asked Faedosa if she would return to Kakuma, and still, she maintained that she wouldn't.
"Mimi sirudi. Rudi na Apoo mimi nitabaki na Lulu. Hapa ni mzuri. Hata kama kuna baridi nitabaki niko na sweater (I am not going back. Go back with Apoo, I will stay here with Lulu. It is nice here. Even if it is cold, I will stay, I have a sweater)," Fardosa said.
Asked about the comparison between Nairobi and Kakuma, she gave reasons she prefers staying in the city.
"Life is sweet here. I watch TV, eat, and just sleep," Fardosa said.
Asked to go and take care of her kids, Fardosa savagely responded;
"Kwani nanyonyesha watoto? Nitakuwa naenda tuu kuwatembelea. Kakuma ni mbaya (Am I breastfeeding the children? I will only be visiting them once in a while. Kakuma is bad)."

Why Fardosa and Apoo want to meet President William Ruto
In another story, the two TikTokers warmed hearts after their pleas to President Ruto.
Fardosa and Apoo, who come from a poor village where many live in manyattas, some made from nylon paper, questioned why the president had not taken the affordable housing project to Turkana.
The two asked tough questions, leaving Lulu stunned. Kenyans applauded the TikTokers for asking such questions, wondering why affordable housing hadn't reached some counties, including Turkana.
