That was the most useless investigative reporting I've ever seen!
Citizen, stick to your local programming akina papa shilandula, mwala, machachari and the rest. This investigative reporting is way off your league leave it to akina KTN because that was the worst crap I've seen.

How do you do a story with no conclusion? "We might never know what happened here" is not good enough.

BBI will solve it

I also thought the report told us nothing that we did not know already.

Belinda did a below average documentary. Compared to what John Allan Namu did about two years ago while at KTN, this was for intents and purposes a waste of resources. Apparently, her interviewing skills are absolutely nil!

They were trying to make a movie. Unfortunately, unlike Hollywood which hires old cars and uses computer tricks to come up with something that looks real, these guys had recent vehicle models for a cast set 27 years earlier. It was a story poorly narrated. And the conclusion - 'No acton can be taken against anyone for various legal reasons'. The only benefit will be for certain politicians who will try to draw wedges between different communities.

@funda, I too got booed when I saw the current military trucks( the Chinese Steyr with very large ground clearance). I follow military matters all over the world keenly and can tell u u they sure weren't around 27 yrs ago! I wondered what else was not correct.

I am grateful I did not bother to watch it. I am not surprised though. The media houses have developed ameteurish journalistic tendancies of political handouts for name building and character assasinations at the expense of true journalism. How many documentaries have you seen on Kenya ( other than the Film Department ones) that have been made by the local TV channels? I have only seen a good one on NTV just before the elections named 'The Making of a Nation'. I actually went out and bought the DVD. Though political, it was well researched and presented asa history feature.

Unfortunaley, everytime I see the news, I remember the comment made by one guy here to the effect that ' ....Kenyan news is read by bafoons dressed up in suits' or something like that. Whatever beef he had with those guys, he had a point really.
