If am getting you right either the coup.was stage managed or MO1 knew about it but let the guys continue with the plans and final implementation knowing the uprising would be thwarted and in the process Sir Charles would become a black sheep... @Tycho how many prominent Kenyans died mysteriously during MO1s reign? possunt quia posse videntur

It concerned me greatly because it came with a sort of public warning. Or the Wagalla massacre. In all these Moi had tough choices to make, and all had their constraints and forces. For example, Wagalla happened because there was no idea to contain seperatist ideas. What was a governor to do? History is written on the ink of blood till an all encompassing idea is found.

There is no way MO1 would have hang RAO while Oginga still drew breath and live to brag about it! And why hang RAO who was merely following daddy's orders?? Moi was the A-Z of Kenya. He could have hung both and Kenya would applaud. The world wouldn't question death penalty on coup plotters

Leave them alone.Their knowledge of history is limited to the syllabus taught in school and passing the exams.They may as well as tell us Kenyatta fought for Uhuru yet he was in UK drinking and left even a son there who is alive.

How do you benefit by saying others have refused to learn yet you are hoarding what you know? Not unless it's just a conspiracy theory. Btw, the 82 coup isn't mentioned in history books but we still are curious to know more about it.
