Did Wazuzus read the story of how Nation told Kenyatta No or the birth of 'kitu kidogo'... Jeff Koinange would say 'What a story! What a story! This is the stuff of novels and fairy tales! Nowhere else but here'
My favourite quips: --In 1969, Nation overhauled its long-established rival Standard to become leader. --Aga Khan's genuine concern for Kenya and his professionalism/tact in dealing with hungry politicans amidst great trepidation --If Kenyatta wished, Aga Khan would sell the newspaper to the government but he did not wish to proceed with appointment of Muigai
--Kenyatta's Gatundu Self-Help hospital was a 'self-help' project because courtiers helped themselves to the proceeds --Malcom MacDonald said one of Kenyatta's serious errors was his tacit assent to acquisitiveness --How politicans promoted a Public Security Act legalising detentions against their foes; those same politicans would in future face the wrath
Pray share what you thought if you read it. The saga continues...
