Another chance to glorify a great Kenyan who we largely ignored when he lived.There will be lots of calls to honour him now yet Matiba's patriotism didn't even start with agitation for pluralism.
At a time when leadership is now a ticket to plunder and unbridled self aggrandisement it's a shame that he paid so heavily-financially and bodily- in order to make this a better country. But are we any the better?

Some people exist to show us what is possible...
May he rest in power..

I have decided to post my reply here because you were 5 mins faster in breaking this sad news. What's uour alibi when it happened?
Politics is just things to keep the people divided and foolish and put your trust in men and none of them can do nothing for you...

RIP the father of Kenyan democracy.
I hope you will also fight for democracy in heaven so that when our time comes there will be no hell.
Make use of your famous slogan
"Let the people decide"

Rest in Peace Matiba...

Despite politics being an important aspect in everyone's life, I still hate politics because of who we are generally as Kenyans or what it has made the majority of us overtime...

Kenyans love politics way too much...

Just sad about the way people/politicians/analysts are trying to outdo the others in paying tribute to The Great Matiba...

Come next week or so, it will be 2022 debates/arguments until the "next sideshow" ...

Shame...

Was Matiba Kenya's enemy No 1 who derailed the match to Canaan in 1992? When all the revolutionary forces had lined up in FORD ready to remove dictator Moi, Matiba spoilt the party and aborted the imminent victory. All the generals at the time had lined up behind Jaramogi - people like Muite, wamalwa, Orengo, Raila, Imanyara, Kiraitu etc. Then matiba who was very unwell at the time both physically and mentally decided to break away and run on his own, or was pushed to run by a selfish cartel that wanted to ride on his name even though they knew his poor health status. And the rest is history.

Rest In Peace Matiba!!

Has MO1 given his message of condolence??
The man who marries a beautiful woman, and the farmer who grows corn by the roadside have the same problem
