what is the probable cost of the needed furniture

Thanks in advance

As with anything, the cost of the furniture depends upon the quality and whether you want new, or used. It's quite difficult to estimate.

Check the large supermarkets. Many of them sell furniture (often upstairs). Much of it possibly not fantastic quality, but should do.

Alternatively, try sites like OLX and check whether there is a local marketing group on Facebook. Shopping malls often have notice boards where you may find that people have advertised furniture for sale.

I don't know much about Kisumu so really can't be of more help.
