I am from Laikipia West where when growing up GG Kariuki was and still is a household name. Being a Kikuyu born in Laikipia,i don't know Muranga,Kiambu or Nyeri since i found both my maternal and paternal grandparents in Laikipia .So Kenya shouldn't be divided with tribes..everyone should be where they are comfortable.
You’re right. I am a Kikuyu from Nairobi and we have a long history in that city through my great grandfather Chief Kinyanjui wa Gathirimu and Murang’a, Nyeri, or Kiambu are just other locations to me. Nairobi is home.
Waaah, this guy was extremely famous and I guess we used to hear about him being a black belt master in his hey days and very sharp in his karate incase anyone tried shit on him....as short as he was😅. In their days, most of these central guys that catapulted in the sixties and seventies had great opportunities. They acted and lived large as if they were mortals-Dr Mungai, GG, the famous Big mouthed Nakuru puppet, the famous JJ and Koinange family line. They amassed wealth with greed and gluttonously. Where are most of them today? All of us must one day end 6ft under.
Would you say Kibaki was less powerful because he gave ministers freedom? Power is an element which has been misconstrued - power, if not directed in the right direction is useless:- zero sum. Though It has bn a tool for control/brainwashing, together with other human wants - want for wealth/greed, sexual aggrandisement. Adding the fact that no one has monopoly of knowledge. Then you can say that Kibaki was more likely to succeed because of free access of ideas/advice 🤷♀️
