President Uhuru Kenyatta's son Muhoho hanging out with CS Amina Mohammed's daughter Firyal Nur Photo:Pulse Photographer The party scene in Nairobi gets busier by the day. Many are naturally drawn to a nightclub for its various alluring perks as they party with close friends. Recently, during the launch of an uptown city lounge, President Uhuru’s son was spotted ‘balling’ while under the protection of tough- looking security men who shielded any attempts by the media or individuals to take photos. Club owners sensing the lucrative venture have gone out of their way into pumping fortunes to ensure their clubs, lounges and diners meet the desires of these top-dollar patrons by investing in expensive decor, sound and top DJs to woo the who’s-who on the party scene. Some of these high-end revelers ignore their status and want a place they can mingle with revellers at top city clubs. Majority of these kids will frequent these clubs accompanied by their assigned security detail who are armed and dressed in heavy jackets. Understandably, they receive curious stares from other party-goers who are, however, intimidated by the mean- looking security detail that would hardly allow drunk strangers close to their charges who are accorded V.I.P protection, including additional protection by the club security. Most of them go around in entourages, made up of friends from families of the super-wealthy. When at the club, they often move from place to place, security in tow, but never leave the group. They are heavy spenders and get bottle service of the most expensive drinks. Recently, a son to a very prominent politician is said to have given a tip of Sh30,000 to a waiter. In another instance he showed up to the club with a backpack stashed with cash. According to a hostess who sort anonymity, the rich kids inform their security about their preferred drinks for the night after which, the security detail places the order and inspects the service. According to a popular city DJ, whenever a rich kid is in the club, it means the night ends on a good tip. “I once got a tip of Sh50,000 from the son of a prominent politician in the government. He just wanted a few songs dedicated to his girlfriend,” he revealed, adding that they always look forward to the generous ones. Their security detail would, however, rather avoid densely populated clubs as the security of their charge is highly compromised. “Sometimes you can tell the security are overwhelmed especially if the person being protected is all over the club. This is because they always want to go about their business unnoticed,” added the DJ. So apart from the lavish house parties and backyard barbeque parties, we look at their preferred places to club. We look into some of the clubs they frequent and unravel what exactly makes these clubs tick and attract young millionaires with an opulent lifestyle, most of whom are sons and daughters of top politicians, police bosses, company CEO’s, businessmen and the newest millionaires in town.
