Same reason why boys stone dogs. You ask them why, they got no reason to do it.

JOGINDER SINGH
[ATTACH=full]19367[/ATTACH]
He is still a household name half a century after he carved himself a name by raising dust storms and churning mud on East Africa’s rugged highways and by-ways. To date, boys still mention ‘Jogida’ or ‘Jogida Sing’ whenever they see a car speeding away.

In Kenya, even for children who never witnessed his exploits on the road, Joginder Singh is synonymous with speed—breakneck speed.

The legendary Safari Rally champion Joginder Singh Bhachu passed away peacefully in London aged 81 on Mashujaa (Heroes) Day. The undisputed king of the road succumbed to heart failure, leaving hundreds of thousands of his fans around the world in shock
and mourning.

Poignantly he died on Mashujaa Day, underscoring the fact that he was Kenyan hero.

Nobert Vincent Okare, a pioneering legend in showmanship and newscasting- he stands tall amongst the rest-
and possibly the most polished of the male news anchors on Kenyan Television in the 70’s and 80’s. He made listening to the news on Radio; and watching TV VoK News a pleasure.
