My father in law was an airforce. He was just from leave alafu kufika Nairobi anapewa gun 😢later on he's wanted, he fled the country to Uganda in a buibui later on he died. May his soul rest in peace. I wish he could live to tell his story
My dad was in the Airforce , he was shot and killed by Kenya Army soldiers, just outside KAF Eastleigh. The other side of the story is that, Inside the base at that time , the instruction that came, was that the Airforce base was under attack and that they should report to the armory to defend KAF base. Kenya Army was flanking the base. There is a good number of soldiers who had no clue what was happening. So many angles to this thing. This one event changed our lives forever.
It is very common for people to underestimate the role of luck in their successful journeys, CB, on the other hand, acknowledges how luck plays a role in his. This is a very practical insight.
First hand information from capt. Chris, I was in langata barracks a young Lieutenant manning the MRS(medical centre), is an event which must be safe guarded never to happen again in a civilised society.
I'm a copywriter and "one lucky Guy" for the book is one hell of an Idea. if you know what I mean. man had been in and out of Luck like he's God sent😆😅
My dad was in the airforce too and he got arrested during that time and was jailed..It still hurts him till today whenever he remembers that day.He calls it the black sunday.He lost alot of friends too.
Nice to hear this rendition Captain Kariuki. Our lives as a family changed completely after this. My Dad was in the Air Force too at that time. I remember everything as if it was yesterday. The explosions. What Dad said to us and how we had to leave our home and go and hide at my Uncle's house. And how Dad had to go and surrender at DOD. I will never forget that time and how the army brought him home to pick some clothes, mum gave them tea. This is a great rendition of what happened. Write a book. Dad will contribute. He was ATC. Salute to you all. I still look up when planes fly overhead.
I was 7 years old. I remember hearing my mother telling my grandparents that there is a coup. We went to Sunday school but our Sunday school teachers didn't show up. We stayed outside in a group, only to see a helicopter flying around us. We ran home crying 😭😭😭😭
1982, I was in Nairobi visiting a friend. We heard gunshot at 3am on Saturday early morning. The soldiers attacked the hotel I lodged that night. I will never forget that weekend...it it was scary and worrisome.
I was quite young then but I still remember CB and the likes of Maj John Kiarie and Capt Kariuki "Murebu" Kingaru (RIP)... We used to call Gina's parents "Kariio" ....Great guys...
My Dad was coming home from a night of drinking when Ochuka tried this stunt. Had to walk from the CBD to westlands where he and my mom lived..... Saw loads of awful things.
I was 9yrs and in class 4...when he says his colleague hailed from that " tribe" that was implicated...I understand the meaning of ethnic polarisation and mass extermination... It is important to learn that individuals were punished heavily for their roles. He was from the good tribe and did not carry a gun😂
He just said it as it was pronounced",the tribe that did the.." anyways,we are what we are,Kenya and Kenyans will never change,we are tribally obes and obsessed
What was despicable is the wholesale slaughter of the KAF lads even after they had surrendered.Moreso when these were clearly countrymen not foreigners attacking Kenya. The fact is no Air force works alone.The army was equally involved in the plot only that last minute troop movement changes messed up their plans. Worse still the civilian brains behind the plot went off scot free.
Yaani this guy was luckier than the Air Force commander, who was relieved of his duties because of the coup. Maajabu. And he was living in a hotel while others were in kawa housing. Okay. One thing he didn't tell us, is how the military guys passed out inside of the F5s because of excessive g-force. Hilarious story.

It's not luck. It's God's Providence.
@@davidtheophillus9832 he called it luck himself. Let's go with that
God had proved Himself to you, CB. Over and over again, in your life..... so much evidence of His goodness to you.
From today I'll be saying 'God of Chris Kariuki remember me." I love how all odds are in his favour
I was 3 years old but I remember that day. Even the weather changed and became overcast.

As one who grew up in Laikipia Air Base, his story brings back many memories. Such a terrifying moment.
Aiyayayayaa that always is a sign of how cinematic the story is.

i would listen to this mans stories all day long...
True,, This is soo enjoyable story from the horse's mouth 🙏

that coup needs a movie from our actors.
💯
Nice narrative cb..brings back lots of memories from my school days
This is *Headline Hitters* ya Mkurugenzi @Abel mutua in real perspective.. Good job CTA

What a great story, lakini haikuisha we need to have part two please.
This must be the true definition of a LUCK Y GUY.... Ama kweli ya Mungu ni Mengi sana
I was 5, we lived quite close to MAB. My older siblings say there were bodies visible from oir window that remained uncollected for days
This captain was my junior at Lenana school. He is a lucky guy....😎😎
Richie just drop all the episodes, this story is so 🔥
Good job

I hope I'll get to see Leonard Mambo here.

Stop manipulating a story for selective listening.
You know what he means
He just said it as it was pronounced",the tribe that did the.." anyways,we are what we are,Kenya and Kenyans will never change,we are tribally obes and obsessed
Is he wrong?
The 'tribe' of violence....
Athough many died. GOD loves kenya HE secured many
Afande, two more has surrendered.....that killed me man
The background beat is 👏

You can't just cut it there Richie. Drop the next episode, this so interesting.

One thing he didn't tell us, is how the military guys passed out inside of the F5s because of excessive g-force. Hilarious story.
Most probably those seated in the rear missed the action as it was intentional from the pilots to make them pass out as they went to 'bomb' targets
The saga of one Corporal Injeni Njereman and hero-pilot Major David Mutua aboard KAF F5 jet...🤔
What an ending,bring part two

@@cta101 thank you am on 1033☺️
Which tribe are you talking about
Kenya was equipped those many years ago.
i was sleeping when my neighbour came and woke me up,and told me the government has been overthrown
"one lucky guy"
It was a bloodbath the army was merciless
If the coup was successful, Kenya would have been an extremely wealthy, successful socialist state.
Wtf man
False. KENYA would have been another GERMANY under a HITLER called KITENDAWILI.
Kenya under military would have been very successful like Rwanda, Nigeria, Liberia, sierra leon and other messed up nations.
History is good. Who masterminded this coup?.
I know where you are going 😴
Where some people have always been dying to go, perhaps?

it is soo annoying when the interviewer whistles... wacha iyo bro!
Hehe, ati "that tribe that majority conducted to coup" just say bwana, .."He was a Luo!
All this English?
It's international like that...
True Lenana product🤗🤗
I was also a sergeant in air force and I have also an interesting story.thanks to God I survived.
"that tribe" bla bla bla. Smh! Boy bye
But it's true majority of coup perps were Luos and at that time they were persons of interest. We cannot evade history by being politically correct
