"I Know He's Gonna Try To Rob You" đ°đȘ (#72)
VloĆŸit
- Äas pĆidĂĄn 20. 08. 2021
- We had come to Garissa, the place that many Kenyans told me was "the most dangerous city in Kenya", a place of kidnappings and terrorism. Perhaps that was all an exaggeration. I was more interested in the local Somali culture, so I brought my new Tanzanian friend along to find some camel milk, a local specialty. Little did we know, we would find a very different kind of experience.

Mo is a real one for this âđœ
How are U man, i Enjoy watching ur music reactions from Kenya
I like Moâ€ïž
Yea Mohamed who is Somali knows when youâve always take care of your guest in any situation.
He really was, Tommy almost got robbed by the other guys also on the bike with the purple shirt. "lacag ka qhad" which translates as get the money for us. Mo, turned the bike around and ditched them.
For sure
Mo was so happy to see an American he didnt stop talking the whole time. Props to him for protecting you guys.
He wasnât protecting them, he def wanted to rob them. He was caught lying multiple times. The guy is sketchy as fuck
@@AmatureiHacker he was a feen ,but he was gonna protect that bag I promise
@@AmatureiHacker nah mo seemed chill
@@AmatureiHacker alarm bells were going off all over.
Mo can go to hell. He admitted selling heroin. Come to LA and see how heroin addicts are sleeping in their own shit and how many of them die...then you wouldn't say " go mo"...absolute idiot. He doesn't even drink to protect his own body but it's okay to destroy others?! BS
From the way Mo talks about Houston, Texas, I get the feeling he truly regrets his criminal behavior in the USA and is trying to adjust to life in Gsrissa.
yh kind feel sad for him tho
@@Laila-nuraa oh yes. He has just been in Kenya 6 months. Hope he will pull himself up.
But, now that Our borders are all the way opens. MO, LARRY AND CURLY, CAN COME HERE BACK PASSING LIKE HAITIANS.
Regret is in the past but life goes on fam

Moe is hilarious. When the annoying drunk terminator found them Moes fist reaction is PURE 100% American "this bitch ass dude man" I Love it. America made its mark and will always travel with him no matter were he goes.
Mo needs a channel of his own. Hilarious đ
On point. I had to rewind that shit to make sure I heard him correctly
Facts đđđ
Hmmm. I think Moe is his Afrikaner name. Moe means tired in Dutch, I bet South-Africans get moe of this man, as well. He's got so much energy!

Hi what's up bro
Spam 1:03 2pac Africa "We can we can we can get you anywhere you wanted" Âź
@@mohamedmilada2112 whatâs good moe howâs Kenya treating you
That's how travelling works.
feel like Tommy could also build up a network of local trusted individuals that future travelers could use.
Trust isn't transferable like that; someone can know and trust Tommy to be solid, but I doubt that Tommy would want the burden of having to vouch for random folks he doesn't know, trading on his name tbh.
The man literally walked into a bar, paid for a round of drinks to everyone near him, simply for peace.
Doubt that he can vouch for every traveller coming on his name to do something similar
Masdi"Everyone knows me! Must be the Captain đđđđ
Totally agree đŻđČ
@@scipio2009 bro that is how somali trust works...it is even inherited.
Example, your father and mother father living from distance lands..one of them wants to travel across the tribe of the others lands...he will mention his name...let him pass and vice versa...now when the fathers die or one dies and a son comes up, it is only oral and the trust still held...all goods everything is trusted on a name...no one know if that tribe has been wiped out by drought or what

M.O.E. you're taking Houston with you everywhere you go! Keep teaching others those Htown street values. I wish you the best in this crazy life

@@mohamedmilada2112 Warya whats good upti
That a beautiful Tanzanian sister right there.
At 28:50 onwards those guys on the next bike kept repeating âdid you take money from himâ or âtake money from himâ I couldnât tell they because they were talking fast something along those lines but they did say âmoneyâ and âtakeâ over and over again every time they responded lol Moe is such a nice person because instead of translating it he just said theyâre saying theres camels up ahead and then at 29:08 when they went in front of you guys they actually said âturn turn weâll take moneyâ and then thatâs when Moe turned around and said it was too far probably trying to stop you from getting robbed. Iâm glad you guys were with him!
They said how much are your charging him and then how much are you gonna charge him but he did not answer them nice guy
These assholes always trying to take money from tourists really ruin it for the whole country giving it a bad reputation and they are probably the loudest complaining about "stereotypes".
@@yusu0154 oh that makes sense too! I just heard lacaag (money) and something along the lines of did you take money from him or are you going to take money from him so I was tryna figure out what they meant by it. I donât understand why they said âturn turnâ and again said âhe took money from himâ or âtake money from himâ at 29:06 and Moe turned around right away seemed sketchy and he wanted to just get away from the situation
Mo deserve to be paid atleast 2000ksh for protection
Waoh!Moh is such a nice guy after all.I kudnt understand wat he was saying but he embraced the added responsibility.
âI WILL NEVER LEAVE YOU!â
Tommy: âOh, youâre back.â đ©

@@ITS_N3.LL.Y đ
đđđđđ€Łit cracked me up
đđđđđ
As far as has money still, nothing is gonna happens to Him, The guy who was deported, knows all the local bad guys. .
For me it's Mo's personality throughout the video
In case you haven't noticed a trend Tommy, whenever a person gives you a hard time about filming them, they turn out to be trouble.
Agreed
Anyone that says "hey white boy!" turns outs to be trouble.
Thats what happens when you really look for trouble
@@CaliWilderness the guy who yelled ''whit boy'' was the nice one. the drunk one was the trouble they kept trying to lose
@@TheTororist annnnd... the "nice" guy was kicking it with the drunken drug dealers. Then he took him on some Neverending bodaboda ride and started asking if he makes money on his videos.
Wonder how Tommy consistently finds good people to look out for him. Just shows most of us Africans are good people. Also great to see how a convo on big booty brings two men together lol
nah,wonder how there's always a bad guy on every videos he upload.It just prove that there are a lots of bad guy in af**ca.
thats wrong theres always more bad people then good people in every video
Good tends to attract good.
At first I couldnât tell if mo was a trust worthy character but after watching the most recent video I came back here to see how genuine he is
How many videos he in
*HE SAVED YOUR BACON*
At 29:06, the guy on the other bike says âjidkaas (couldnât hear the next few words) lacagta ka gaadâ which directly translates to âon that road⊠take the moneyâ.
Then Mo IMMEDIATELY turns the bike around and leaves. He saved you. But didnât tell you their intentions. He obviously cares about and has loyalty to his friends (I get the feeling their not close, just neighbourhood boys).
He canât be seen standing up to his friends to protect some foreigners he just met, he has a connection with you that they canât understand. So he just leaves situation.
You see, Mo is in between many different worlds. Heâs a Kenyan, a Somali, an American and global citizen. People from one walk of life (like yourself (sabbatical) and those boys that wanted to rob you) canât understand each completely.
Mo is understand each of your lives and is connected with you all, because he has literally lived life fro each of your perspectives and has real, genuine empathy for you all. Which is why he simply leaves without bothering to explain himself to you or his friends. You wouldnât understand.
Maybe Iâm psychoanalysing too much, but he 100% saved you from being robbed a few times in this video.
a great comment
Well if you know a Somali, like Mo mentality, you would know he would stand and die for that foreigner if it comes to, right? Have you heard of the word "Magan"? Like "qofkaan waa magan tayda"...I think every somali would support mo even those he will fight that he has more duty to protecting those under his protection "magan"
he asked him many times, "did you take money from him" and Moe didn't answer and I love that he didn't even tell sabbatical about it so that he doesn't worry. Genuine guy. Mo is a standup guy forreal!
This is my hometown man! I love how you blend into cultures, be safe thou.
you come from Garrisa?

A little history about bodaboda: It all started in the border town of Busia. This is along the Kenya/Uganda border. So casual laborers used to help travelers and traders carry their luggage from one side of the border to the other. They would call this border to border. They used bicycles back in the day. The name got shortened to border-border(bodaboda). Eventually motorbikes replaced the bicycles and bodabodas became a mode of transport everywhere not just along the border
Good to know
Great insight!
Very correct recollection.
Interesting âŠ. boda-boda. Many use indian bajaj, right? (3 wheelers)
@@erdieM Tuk tuk? Very common in this part of the world
Damn Moâs really been through it đ„Č. Hopefully his situation gets better.
Mo is supper hyped like the dude from Mombasa Mr."Everybody knows me"
Everybody knows me đ€Łđ€Łđ€Łđ€Ł
was about to say so đ€Łđ€Łđ€Łđ€Łđ€Łđ€Ł
jembe or smth like that
This guy in the white tee is freaking amazing!
Thanks for looking after tommy :)
Love from America!
Hi what's up
Hi
@@mohamedmilada2112 yo
Love from Romania also. Kindness is universal language.
He's a drug dealer.
Mo is such a lifesaver, can we get him his green card back pls lol
Sure
He said he was selling hero.. USA is a bad influence for him
@Adonni Kaci yes better then the sub culture of rap in the u.s.a
Hi what's up brother
@Adonni Kaci hi
Mo is a true hustler. He was hanging with the trouble maker, but he seen the money was to stay with Tommy. He knew what was going on from the very beginning, but he chose to look out for Tommy instead. If Tommy would have been rude to Mo right from the start, things could have gone differently perhaps.
Facts but I donât think itâs fair to say heâs a straight hustler. Heâs got that American connection with Tommy too. From his story Moe is more of an American than a Kenyan.
@@redcomic619 He had Tommyâs back in this situation. But at the end of the day, the man has to do what he has to do at times. I respect the mans hustle, especially seeing how he knows when the make the right choice. Some people donât even do that.
it's moe, man of everything.
It's all about the energy and mo has that dope energy đđđŸ
@@MTVSomaliChannel I canât disagree with that
This video gave me chills. Dangers at each corner.
way too dangerous. things could have gone south very quickly, but the indiana jones getaway made it worth it đ
@Fei HongéŁéžż scary.
Not really. I live there and people are really misinformed about the situation here. It's quite peaceful! And I know some of the guys in the video.
@@abdinasiribrahim2054 that was an attempted robbery... âïž albeit a very polite one
@@joy1ess Yeah, of course I agree. We have bad apples everywhere.
Mo's good vibes can make him a perfect Ambassador for Garissa to the World, even a tour Guide...
Good work Tommy...am Kenyan and it dont get realer than this...Unplugged/unedited/raw/keepin it real
Because of MoâŠIâm here for the third time !!!âŠamazing guy to watch
The woman is definitely beautiful!
Most interesting travel channel BY FAR
Should set a go fund me for moe đŻ he deserves a few 100s lol
Please do that, he deserves it
We need his info to reach him. Keep contact
Maybe if we build this kinda relationship around the world different countries.... Maybe we can take over and change the world for the best interest of the people not the government
Absolutely, when your people is treated the right way, no for the money but for following the rules of protecting the tourists as in the passport it says, when traveling you need that kind of help, no hindrance at all.
@@JR-rv7sr he is in the comments chatting with everyone, I doubt he wants handouts, but he could start his own thing for sure
The Houston guy steal the whole scene,tour and the Garissa episode đđđ
He was very real dude đ€Łđ€Ł
false
Another day, another adventure, another "everybody-knows-me"-guy that Tommy runs into :-D
Everybody knows me hea
đ€Łđ€Ł
Jajajajajaja
"give him 100" and "don't worry" and "take your picture"....haha, unforgettable character that "everybody knows me" dude :)
Damn your comment had me thinking I was gonna meet the everybody knows me guy
Houston guy in Garrissa caught me by surprise đ
Another a good video from Tommy, and respect to Mo such nice person. He saved you from trouble. The Garissa community has to give this guy a Oscar. Love from Somalia/Norwegian.
interesting dude. might have sold heroine in houston but you can see he is particular about following garissa customs somewhat. he doesnt drink and is afraid people will think he does and he wont let the girl ride up against him
Very glad I stumbled on your channel Tommy. Africa is probably the continent I know least about. A lot of the stuff you see in the media is fairly negative, so it's cool to get to know different cultures and their respective residents, you know, the good sides.
Keep up the great work man!
Are you German?
@@irenedavo3768 American, but I've been living in Germany practically my whole life.
Did you know negative publicity is security? Africa Doesnt have an immigration problem. The west has. I think I like it. Nobody wants to come here meaning we don't have cultural pollution
This propaganda of Africa has been going on for decades. The Western media has done a good job of destroying the image of the Continent. Funny enough, there are Europeans and Asians who have been in Africa for centuries. We Africans are slowly changing the narratives.
@@mlionea Fair point, I see where you're coming from. Guess there's a thin line between getting to engage in different cultures while also maintaining a sense and place of your own. It's probably more complex than I've just put it, just a difficult topic to wrap my head around since there seem to be a lot of factors to be taken into consideration.
" I don't even know how he's moving, he drank like 3 Guinnesses" đ€Łđ€Łđ€Łđ€Ł
Pounding those like Frank the tank.
They're not even 5%. Probably 4.5%.
He looked drank at the ending of the first videođ or maybe he had a light breakfast and it knocked him off
mo dont drink..he was sippin on coco cola
@@eprahim9836 he's talking about the other youth man who was being rowdy
There's some guardians watching over you and keeping you safe. There must be. As soon as that guy said "Hey white boy" I knew he must have spent time in the USA. That's so USA. Kinda sad he got into that lifestyle and was deported. There's a very decent guy there. I'm guessing you survived the bula and somehow we'll get to see what happens there, at least partially.
Yeah i thought Mo was the bad guy in this story when he said "Hey white boy", usually when someone says that they have no respect for you and probably want something from you... but Mo turned out to be the hero in this little story.
@@zwykhg364 exact same. I'm from Houston too so you never know their intention if you don't know them
Bro was just selling some weed lol
What are the chances of meeting a US felon, self proclaimed international drug dealer and INS deportee in a rural small town in Kenya. Wow!
Lol
similar chance as finding an italian hustler in the street corner of NYC lol
Been looking forward to this!
Your channel is now one of my favorites on CZcams. I keep coming back for more.
Thank you bro sabbatical no new guy reaches this Far itâs full of challenges but never give up and thank you for being consistent
Cant stop waking up and hoping another video is waiting. Love it Tommy, keep it up and stay safe. Watch out for the bangi.
Many peaceful people out there!! We all have different color but same blood. God bless! Have a good one tommy!
We don't have the same bloodđ
I love this guy and his videos.
Love Tommyâs content! His videos are #1 by farâŠ. Be careful Tommy, please please pleaseâŠnot sure about any one else but I was also worried if they were going to run out of gas on that bike, that was a long bike ride
Shout out to Mo repping H-town đ€ŁđȘ
Hope he can make it back someday
He aint making it back hommie
Houston told him to beat it, bro. Skedaddle. Vamoose.
We got homie in garissa let's go. garissa is safe for the real ones. Takashi 69 ain't gonna make it tho
On god I hope he come back đđđ
You're pushing your luck my friendđ
Thank you Moh for saving our 'white boy' đ€Ł
Yeah for some reason Tommy always manage to have people helping him out in the end.
I guess he's a good street talker.
The most dramatic episode so far; never a dull a moment with Somali people.
Easiest way to be profiled for a robbery, " just buy drinks for everybody."
I always wondered why drink when u should wanna be 100 % aware of ur surroundings in dif countrys
Resisting a cold Tusker in hot Garrisa is hard!
One beer isn't going to do anything to a person like Tommy lol đ€Ł
Nothing wrong with drinking in a different country.
Something very wrong with being drunk in a different country (for the reasons you pointed out).
I miss one episode and Sabbatical is hookedđ
Thank You for sharing! These videos are awesome!
Some pure raw content.Big shout out to your boy Mo
Quite interestingly, my hometown Garissa was listed as Kenya's safest city by InterPol in 2010. You can look it up. Then, the US funded 'war on terror' came knocking a year later in 2011 when Kenyan forces used Garissa and the surrounding border towns as launching pads for the invasion of neighboring Somalia which brought reprisals and terrorists massacres ever since.
We hope our forces can get out of Somalia and safeguard us from within. We want peace and stability in all parts of Kenya. We need more people to move from the rest of Kenya and invest in North Eastern.

Mo he deserves to given 20$ atleast. He Save your Ass. Garisa is No going zone for Americans. Not Only Americans but even locals from other sides. Mo he is a real Deal.
