OMG Professor was best friend to my cousin Ngugi wa Mirii who unfortunately passed away through a fatal accident in Harare Zimbabwe where he was also in exile. I met Professor personally in Kamirithu when I was a little girl when my cousin took me to watch the play Ngahika ndenda. Professor we love you..we miss you, I know you miss your brother Ngugi wa Mirii who is my cousin. Stay strong brother ❤
Ngugi wa Thiong'o is from my home area Gitogothi/Ngarariga.Oh I loved the play "ngahika ndenda" Him and Patrick Njiru ...safari rally driver and maybe "to me rally founder"...they remain my living heroes. May God protect them always....and also Kiratu...from Limuru...love you all!
Jeremy Damaris, thank you for bringing the voice of such an incredible mind of Ngugi wa Thiong'o. He is the pride of Gikuyu, Kenya and Africa at large. That Kikuyu dictionary is something that needs space in my home. This is great!

I studied river between for literature in 1976. During the days of my youth I read other books written by this great writer. May Jehova grant him many more years.
Is the government is waiting for the good professor to pass so that they can give him a state funeral? Why not appreciate him while he is still alive 😢
Thank you for hosting, Prof. Ngugi wa Thiong'o. He was my brother's lit professor at Nairobi University, but I only met him in California. As a Kenyan author, I would like to contact you (Kenya Diaspora Media) about an interview.
So sad, seen you shed tears,,you might be exiled but you sound is always loud, it is even louder in this regime. You touch our souls and give us alot of hope and courage. How can our heroes be treated this way.

Thanks JD for this! Prophets are never recognized at home. However, those of us who listened to him in UON and National theatre and having read many of his books!! Fellow alumni at AHS, when Carley Francis boomed.
Mureithi wa Wambui!!! Very nice. Thegiuo muno. A very beautiful and enlightening interview. Love love this brilliant author. He's definitely kenyas National Treasure. And yes, I wish as Kenyans we would learn to honor and appreciate our own stars like Ngugi Wa Thiongo. But can all his books have an English interpretation please. My daughters love to read his books but they were born here in the USA.
Thank you for honoring this legend while he is here. I like the novel ngaahika ndeeda. I love his talking voice 😝. I think writers are special because they think deeply and they share with us ✍️
So happy to see how strong and sober he is regardless his age. What a treasure. Shame on our government for not inviting him back. Actually we need an annual holiday to cerebrate him. I read The River Between, and let me tell you, that is a masterpiece considering now it was his first! The vivid description in the book is just awesome. Reading it makes you feel like you are living in those days. You visualise the setting so vividly.

The Kikuyus feel more comfortable speaking in their own language even when the hero belongs to us all Kenyans. Ngugi wathiongo is a kenyan hero.
God was not stupid making these languages..........speaking in your mother tongue should be natural and something one should be proud of!
So interesting!! Great minds !! have watched this interview to the end without winking!
"A grain of wheat'" is perhaps his most prophetic and most likely the most relatable to the world's oppressed.
