Guy used to come for inspection and without going round and the shout names of the people who are 'Chavu'. I did not attend parade one morning as I was a guard that day and the guy called my name.

Being sworn by an afande. How? Hiyo ndio discipline. I used to call my friend afande. One day our commandant overheard us. He was so incessed. Siku hiyo tulimea.

But I also recall that before that ill-fated "guard of honour" the comrades would keep their NYS uniform after training. After that mwandawiro incident, the only souvenir the pre-university students would get after the training was an NYS badge.

Moi had closed the university indefinitely and literally thrown the keys into the indian ocean. IF YOU EXPECT ME TO POST ANYTHING POSITIVE ABOUT ASENO, YOU MAY AS WELL SIT ON A PIN
