Back in early 90s, we'd gone to Eldoret club for a golf tourney. Happens one of my buddies came late. He used to drive a funny looking Land Rover 109. Can't tell what happened but i think he smashed into an S-Klasse as he maneuvered his junk into perking. It was Biwott's limo and even though he was nowhere around, his guards disappeared with my man and we did not see him for a couple of days. It actually took the intervention of the late Mzee Michael Sang to have our man released. His vehicle was later delivered piggyback on a lorry by a then senior assistant police commish and he was warned to never ever drive the "junk" again....and he never  There was a famous bookstore on Moi Avenue, I think it might have closed much later... but anyhow this bookshop was sued by Biwott for selling a book that had mentioned Total Man adversely. they were forced to pay him 5 million shillings. This was in the 90s can you imagine a bookshop having to come up with 5 million. I do not think they ever fully recovered. Book Point. I think the figure was 10M and a further 30M from the Author of Ian West's book. That was a lot of money then. Exactly! Ndiyo hiyo guka. After that book sellers were so scared. I remember not long after I wanted to buy a copy of Karl Marx's "Das Kapital" and I think I first went to Book Point where they told me point blank they do not have it, cannot order it for me and will not sell it. I then went to Sarit thinking I would have a better chance at Text Book Center only for them to actually tell me they too cannot sell such a book because it was on a list of banned books. There was actually a list of books that was banned!!! Tumetoka mbali kweli. In the early 20s I managed to smuggled in the book " Absolute Power: The Ouko Murder Mystery by Jonah Anguka"... I lost the book somehow... I will be first one to buy the book again when it hits the bookshops soon. Would be a best seller

With a government salary how did he manage to build a USD 1.5B wealth portfolio Obiero you should read a book called 1984 by George Orwell. In the book he suggests that nothing is permanent even History. History can be rewritten depending on the circumstances. From the biography of his father that Biwott gave it is very clear how he has rewritten his history. His father was a prominent, hardworking, very intelligent and successful God fearing businessman. Once he has given an eulogy for his father like this he does not need to explain the source of his wealth. He entices the whole world and future generations to look at him from that angle and believe that he could not have stolen anything. Just like Uhuru, I do not think there is anybody in Kenya who would believe that Uhuru has ever stolen anything from anyone. So once Biwott paints himself as the son of a successful businessman all of his ill gotten gains are forgotten. Unfortunately this is how his family and lineage will remember him and in 50 years when all the people who think otherwise have forgotten, this narrative will be the only truth left...... and it will be the TRUTH. He was a already rich before he came into government. All his government jobs were public service and he helped many people, build schools and give back to the community. What a great man!!
