5 MOST DANGEROUS ATM PLACES IN NAIROBI



Money, money, they say it runs the world. That with money you can afford to be happy and get whatever you want. 

In Nairobi the men are constantly chasing after it to impress the women and the women are constantly searching for the men who have it. 


I think hence the phrase, “no romance without finance.” Money is also regarded as the source of all evil but that is neither here nor there. 


Family Bank Westlands:

Located right before Havana bar and restaurant, it is filled with street urchins and gangs. It felt quite restless withdrawing the money despite being in the company of a friend and it would just be impossible when alone considering these guys walk up to you begging for some loose change.

KCB Tom Mboya Street:


This definitely has to be the most exposed ATM in Nairobi. It is in the heart of the CBD and so much open for everyone to see that you’re out to withdraw money. Being in the midst of a matatu terminal, it is always infiltrated with some very fishy characters is pretty much easier for someone to see you walk in and then follow you afterwards, rob you and then disappear into that alley.

Standard Charted Moi Avenue:
In a very safe area and quite open during the day, it can get a bit tricky during the night. The place gets really crowded with all kinds of people especially hawkers and street urchins. Not considering that the place is also a popular spot for con artists and pick pockets.


Taj Mall:

This definitely takes the number one spot as the most dangerous ATM place in Nairobi. Also in close proximity to the bus terminal, there are robbers always on the lookout before finally pouncing on unsuspecting customers. 

KCB Moi Avenue:

At the far end of Moi Avenue right adjacent to Jevanjee gardens, this is another ATM place that is just a little bit too open in Nairobi. Everybody can basically see you when making an entry. At night someone can follow you and rob you.
