One of unfortunate things about Kenya is that among the true heroes of the second liberation. Yaani the people who put their neck on the line to fight Moi for democracy, none ever got to govern. Instead we are governed by the very same people who have always supported Moi.
The real heroes of the 2nd liberation were aside from Matiba, Oginga Odinga, Muliro, Shikuku, Orengo, Raila, Rubia, Koigi..............
These people quite literally put their necks on the line at a time when dissidents used to disappear mysteriously and were never seen again, some languished in detention for years, the lucky ones escaped to Norway or wherever.

A healthy Matiba is one of the best presidents Kenya ever had.
