MOI inspecting a Guard of Honour on official state events was a CLASS act! He marched in tune and with synchrony to the band music, and was just as perfect as the uniformed officer next to him with the sword raised, and the other uniformed officer behind him. I believe Moi must have attended marching school or never skipped an armed forces drill rehearsal. I once watched Kibaki inspect a Guard of Honour, I almost fell down in tears.

That was one thing he was very good at.

No she didn't.... she was married though later divorced and joined kanisa kabisa....

@arap..., wacha asira !! Moi did more harm to the country than good. But to be fair, i think he was a good leader but poor manager ( was this as a result of limited education/ thin CV?). If only we had a leader like Moi with the managerial skills of Kibaki....

.....hapo kweli kabisa!!!!

I will not forget his generous and populist nature- a trait he shares with Raila. He would dish out money to schools whose students would miss classes to just line the road to hear from baba. In primary sch we had a snacks bash after every tour. In Secondary sch, we bought a music system. Those days, if Moi was going to Thika you would find all schools along Thika zoobing by the roadside waiting for him...and he was generous with wananchi too. He would buy frvits for them. Not forgetting the rumour that he used to give state house visitors something small for mama watoto which would be in tens of thousands! But we must not forget, this was our money!

Done in 1991. 23 years no pothole, no crack, no repairs except introduction of the the rough overlay to solve the slippery problem......whenever I drive over this 15km stretch, all I remember is the good old Moi. hata mseme........

Bro si hizo boflo tulikula!
Ati our money? LOL those days you owned nothing more than the Jua Kali metal box!! Mimi hizo boflo sitawahi sahau ata wakisema
