I sell mitumba and I now have so much respect for Mr Wanjigi. Thanks for the eye opening video Mr Khwatenge. I never miss your videos keep up the good work.
25 years and his achievement is building an open air market, what a shame. We need to raise our standards. Have you seen the towers in Bangkok and China that serve as markets complete with elevators where someone can do serious international business? Even Tz are in the process of building a state of the art mkt, we need to become serious with life as Kenyans.
@@joshuamaka876 Progress is a process, he did what he knew best with his budget. Now you should implement your superior ideas that you see fit, that's why it's a blessing that Kenya has you
As a freshman student in the US in 1979, Andrew Young who was then the US representative to the UN came to talk to policy analysis majors and when he heard I was a Kenyan student, he took interest in me and I can remember him telling me that Jomo Kenyatta was a forward thinking president because he appointed ministers based on merit not sycophancy. Maina Wanjigi, Dr. Njoroge Mungai, Odongo Omamo, and Dr. Gikonyo Kiano are some names he mentioned. It made me proud to be a Kenyan. Today, when Americans ask me about Ruto, I feel ashamed.
@@osodowilberforce2321those of us who were of age during Jomo Kenyatta days know what a functional government is like. The young generation have been fed with bullshit stories eti aliiba mashamba but I lived those days, Kenyatta, Uhuru, and Kibaki knew what they were doing.
He graduated with a diploma from Makerere university, later a Bachelor's from the University of Connecticut in USA and a Masters in agricultural economics from the prestigious Stanford university USA.
My necktop reminds me that in 1977 when I was in standard two, I was given a green ten shilling note as school fees which I took to the headmaster's office and he wrote me a receipt for school fees which I took to my dad. I remember it because it's the only time I was given to do it personally because my parents always used to do it themselves. I don't know if some schools were still paying or what was happening. But I remember too Moi's building fund the later activity fee etc.
He had a diploma in agriculture from makerere university, later a Bachelor's from the University of Connecticut in USA and a Masters in agricultural economics from the prestigious Stanford university USA.
The man together with a CID man known as Karano invaded a farm owned by one Barret in Lanet, near Greensteads School. Together they occupiers the expansive piece of land naming it Waka Farm from their names. Todate the farm has been subdivided and sold in small parcels earning the family a fortune. Through his association with Kenyatta he also acquired expansive land in Bahati also in Nakuru. He was one of those demagogue who benefitted from Kenyatta, others being Isaiah Mathenge, Mungai of Ngoroko fame et al.
I know him as former kamkunji MP, but he initiated early retirement of snr chief of kamkunji location in the year 1985,wanjigi fear for former MP by the name Nicholas Gor, so he engineered for the chief to retair
Google is only as right as the writers. You can also do a website or blog (easy to update website) and Google will capture On free education I know you are right. It came in different phases. I studied in public school and paid what was called fees. 173/-.
You forgot to mention that he came from abroad and on landing at JKIA, je went staight to Muoroto and he was sacked. But thanks for the history. Now we know the father of free primary education. No wonder Kibaki implemented it so easily.

His son gave a great history of his dad in his Eulogy. No mention of Gikomba. He is the the founder of Del Monte, Macademia Nuts, SACCOS et al.
Jimi Richard Wanjigi is perfect and according to tradition. Perhaps he doesn't like using the father's name as surname.
