In pictures: Flying toilets
Congestion

About 600,000 people in Kenya's capital live in the Kibera slums, East Africa's largest informal settlement.

UN Secretary General Ban Ki-Moon has been to the slum on his first visit to Africa, assessing challenges the UN faces in trying to reduce poverty.

Some frustrated residents use polythene bags commonly known as "flying toilets" to dispose of human waste.
