    I must admit that Mr Njiru is so good with names. He talking about events that happened in the 80s, like 39 yrs ago but he still remembers the names very clearly despite his age

    I love the History from Lee Njiru.

    Lee Njiru is an awesome man, perhaps this is why President Moi kept him close for such a long time. Bravo Major General Jackson Tuwei, my neighbour. Indeed Lee Njiru is a learned person, I am mesmerised how he as mastered the political science theories such as Bradley effects in election and how he relating it with Kenya as case study.....

    I remembered this guy back in 2005 at kabarak university. Went there from Ethiopia for the world Christian follow ship. We were outside greeting muze moi. As an Ethiopian I used to watch muze back while I was a kid on tv. Then when I saw him personally, it was the happiest day of my life and went to greet him as any ordinary person but Lee look at me and kicked me at my stomach. It was very pain full. Muze moi looked at me and told to Lee to let me to greet him. Muze moi told me with out asking me where I came from "I know you r from Ethiopia looking on your face. Ethiopians are good ppl and best friends of mine" I said thank you and muze left. But for Lee my stomach is still on pain lol. Love you Kenyans.

    It's an absolute pity that when it was necessary to use POWER to get his fimbo or some papers to NY, it was used. But the same POWER was never used to build and develop our country and it's people. They forgot that the POWER they had was paid for and provided by THE PEOPLE - the same people who were tortured and murdered if they dared complain that POWER was being abused. Mr Njiru please spare us this nonsense of "Moi built the country with one hand and used the other to fight enemies" - HE DEVELOPED NOTHING ! Shame. Shame. Shame.
