Masai

You see lots of men from the Masai tribe here in Dar.
They have security jobs everywhere.
Instantly recognisable by their cloth, their stick, jewellery and overall striking demeanour.
They are employed by hotels, in nightclubs and in car parks and office blocks.
The Masai who work at Oyster Bay for an 8 hour shift in twos. They get paid 5000 TSH each.
That is £2 each. I asked a Kenyan colleague of Graham's why the Masai get lots of security work she told me "They protect with their hearts."
