What you need to know:
- A walk into the back streets of Naivasha, where the older generation of commercial sex workers have been confined into by their fresh-faced competitors, are back to life
- The new generation, banking on their youngish looks, appear unworried and hubristic
- A driver who is lodging at one of the back alleys talked of a bold lot that is not shying to haggle for pricing with targeted clientele
The red light streets of Naivasha are actually red-literally.
Talk about seizing the moment and the actors in the age-old industry -that existed even during Biblical times - are strategically placed.
