Nairobi Province

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia


Nairobi Province is one of eight provinces in Kenya. It shares common boundaries with Nairobi city, the capital of Kenya, but functions as a state unit. Nairobi has a Provincial Commissioner (James Waweru).

The province differs in several ways from other Kenyan provinces. The province is the smallest in area and is entirely urban. It has only one local authority, Nairobi City and only one district, Nairobi District. However, as with all districts in Kenya, it is further divided into "divisions" which are further divided into "locations".

Nairobi Province has eight constituencies, which follow same boundaries with administrative divisions (which is not the case on most districts in Kenya). Constituency name may differ from division name, such that Starehe Constituency is equal to Central division, Langata Constituency to Kibera division, Kamukunji Constituency to Pumwani Division in terms of boundaries.

Nairobi is divided into eight divisions and fifty locations, mostly named after residential estates. Kibera Division, for example, includes Kibera (Kenya's largest slum) as well as affluent estates of Karen and Langata.
