Moi didn’t do shit. He only used to bait people with the possibility of being connected to the grid so you’d vote for KANU. There’s a famous incident where he ordered Kenya power to erect electricity poles in Kipipiri before a 1995 by-election but had them removed when KANU lost. All credit for rural electrification squarely goes to Kibaki. I was in South Nyanza around 2008 when hundreds of Meru contractors from Mastermind tobacco came to install power lines in the area.

At the time I found it odd that a tobacco company was involved in electrification, but I realized it’s the usual nepotism because the owner of mastermind was a Meru, just like Kiraitu Murungi the energy minister. But they did a thorough job, because by kitu 2010 most of the households had been connected. On a sidenote, Mastermind’s founder was one Wilfred Murungi, I wonder if he was related to Kiraitu Murungi or they were just namesakes.

Lakini Moi fucked and shagged Kenyans a good one.

We are now presented with his understudy. One thieving ALL kleptomaniac. Kweli kuna watu hawana akili.

Kawaida yako ku-argue tu for the sake of it. You contradict yourself but still hold on to your warped views. In 2002 when Moi stepped down, only 18% of the population had access to electricity. He’d been president for 24 years. By the end of Kibaki’s 10 year rule, the figure had more than doubled to 39%. Uhuru, despite his shortcomings has pushed it to above 70%. Those two are examples of mass electrification.

Moi did the very bare minimum. Just coz a few well connected individuals dug deep into their pockets doesn’t mean he was laying “the initial steps of mass electrification.” An old, rich uncle of mine told me he paid 700k to have electricity brought to his homestead in the 90s. How many people could afford such amounts? Kibaki subsidized that cost to 15k. Lakini endelea ku-argue.

Yenyewe that goat herder was a proper old school fukuswii yaani alikua anaona development and all that’s good is something to be doled out to those that are ‘loyal’ aka kok suckers wake. Same with jobs na tenders hata hawangetaka kujua kama wewe sio name brand politician or crony. am told he used to piga laps daily with Gicheru the then Kplc CEO after amemsho kuja na a coupla sacks of shillings ya kununulia mashule ngombe na rice as he spread the message of nyayo while identifying local dik riders WA kureward na power, na ukileta nyef nyef inangolewa Hadi maji. Nakumbuka electricity ilikua kitu ya kufloss nayo kama mlikua nayo home kwenu when we were in primary pre 2002

That’s why he surrounded himself with fellow low IQ demagogues akina Barngetuny, Chotara, Kihika Kimani, Mark Too etc . Yaani mzae alikua na Ka inferiority complex Fulani juu he was a class 4 drop out kama out Right Honourable Engineer.

Chepkeres alikua mjinga . Down with the dynasties

io wakati stima haikuwa important sana kama leo. wakenya hawakuwa na simu, radio ilikuwa inapeana news sawa na tv, mafuta taa na petrol zilikuwa cheap. countries mingi za Africa zilikuwa hazina amani na political stability, na io ndio moi alikuwa anachunga zaidi, kenya iwe na amani. Happiness index yetu ilikuwa juu zaidi wakati wa Mzee Moi.

Hapo kwa stima UHuruto waliscore manze nikiwa primary school nikienda shagz nilikuwa naboeka mbaya saidi.Hakuna stima so siezi ona cartoon plus out of macuzo 9 mmoja ndio boy na tumeachana na 7 years man na hata sikuwa napenda kuenda kwa wenyewe. Kazi ulikuwa tu kulima, kupeleka ngombe malishoni na mfanyikazi na mtoni kunywa maji.

I actually thought I had to go to the city/abroad to work ndio nikafunge juu kama stima na barabara hazikuwa zimeland in 40 years je internet? lakini saa hii I can do online gigs on 4G na stima hukuwa 6 out of the 7 days za wiki. Plus naitisha vitu Jumia na zinakam. Wueh how things change in 10 years
