The socio-economic and physical impediments to child health in kibera informal settlement, nairobi
Abstract
I wish to thank my supervisor Dr.P. M. Walji for her invaluable guidance and
close supervision, without which this study could not have been a success as well as Dr.
O.N. Gakuru who spared his valuable time to go through this work in the absence of
Dr. Walji. I am indeed indebted to Chris Luthi (Warugendo) for his enlightening suggestions
and challenging comments. I wish to single out for appreciation the financial
assistance that was accorded to me by UNICEF, through the Sociology Department,
which enabled me to comfortably complete what would otherwise have turned out to be
a financially straining research.
I am greatful to Thuita (TT), Kago, Wachira, who tirelessly helped to collect the
raw data for this survey. Thanks to all the Muhindi's and those friends like Njagu,
Nkubitu Gathigi, Rose Njeri, Kabare and others who always understood my predicaments,
for the courage that they gave me which made me see the light at the end of what
seemed to be an endless tunnel. Special thanks to Maggie Mwaila for sparing her time
to edit this research thesis.
