Watching all the way from Boston! Your Channel is highly underrated Jeph! You produce extremely well researched and written content that is quite informative and relevant. I wish more people will get to watch your channel and get educated on both the past & present & how the actions of a greedy few have affected millions of lives. Keep up the great job!
Time will tell. This channel will soon blow up. Jeph is well researched and eloquent in speech, everything is clear! The nitty gritty details are not left out.
What a masterpiece. How I wish many people would subscribe and watch these very informative pieces of history that you research and compile. Am sure they can really be very helpful in vetting leaders before they run for a political position.
This fella is a fantastic storyteller, I love the quip at 11:05. Keep bringing us these interesting videos and you'll be a huge Kenyan TH-cam hit bro. We pray facing mount Kenya that you are not the other kind of "hit" we don't like ennit.
Watching from Denmark, I have been binge-watching this channel over several days. Serious stuff. Seems well researched. Quite a job, I think. Keep up the great level of informative subjects 👍
I just stumbled on this channel and the eloquence, thorough research and articulate presentation of facts made me an instant subscriber. Good work Jeff, keep up the good work. Your impeccable work is going far...
I will keep shouting to the heavens and beyond, Jamuhuri’s future is going to be in good hands. Blessings Upon Blessings Bredren!! Once you know your history the future is crystal clear! Kudos Kudos Kudos
This is mind blowing. You have shed a lot of light on those issues that kenyans have scanty knowledge. The playing field in kenya is not level. It is just like the animal farm.
Mau Mau were fighting for their land not independence. Kenyatta was more of a Kikuyu than a Kenyan. Some of the Mau Mau members were murdered by the government. He was the first person to put Kenya on the wrong path.
@@Maina_En it's simple, our history was written by the white man who was afraid of the Mau Mau.That's the truth.The problem is that we always accept everything(we are a very gullible people) without researching.
Not forgetting all those ministers in his government and that of moi... Those people own land everywhere in kenya then registered them under corporates so as to avoid being detected
The problem with the Kikuyu community is that we have been reminding them about the scum the Kenyatta that the Kenyatta family is nut we have always been branded as haters. When I first the story of the Kenyatta family heist in 2013, I was theretened with death and forced to pull down my story.
Itumbi, we know your handwriting! Hayo yana tusaidia wapi?! Kusaidie kurudisha current thieveries like kimwarer, arror, murumbi land, mzee muteshi, ruai sewerage land
The top of one mountain is the bottom of the next one and having said that, Kenyatta would not have been expected to lead the newly independent nation as a movement, he had very little time to craft an elite group which would hold the economy while the country developed.
The main consumers of Brookside products is the middle class, and it is this same middle class that is the most detached from Kenya's history. In fact, Brookside products are seen as somewhat of a 'local' status symbol. As a result, it will be impossible to convince them into a boycott of the company's products.
@@kim1570why should I mix politics with economy, that why people go wrong, what if we do the same for moi, kibaki and Ruto,or you want to call them angles?
As the Luo say: gikmoko iweyo, ji wede ( sins of the past are forgiven, we're related). Kenyatta is 30+ years dead. Whatever his mistakes, that ain't reason for the current crop of leaders to use them as their excuse for poor leadership. It took South Korea just 20 years to beat poverty, ten years less than the period Kenyatta has been dead. Forget Jomo Kenyatta, let's forge ahead fearless and steadfast.
He who forgets his history is bound to repeat the mistakes of the past. Wrongs done to Kenyans by its past leaders must be called out and talked about repeatedly until no one ever dreams of going back there in the future
Very true, this should never be forgotten: infact it should be spoken, sang and perhaps even trumpeted ludly on parapets to subsequent generations of our country who shall come and unmask leaders who steal and plunder and pretend to be heroes of their nations. Perhaps because of the mantra tusahau yaliyopita tujenge nchi yetu, popular after indepencence leaders that cane after kenyatta stole and plundered our nation at will.
@@georgeodhiambo598 you're right, but it can't be the song we sing every day instead of working to forge ahead. The Jomo Kenyatta song is now like a broken record stuck at one code. Today's leaders have the chance to lead us to a better life 🙏 than be harping on the ills of a begone era, yet during campaigns they told us history is not important.
Historical injustices are the reason why we are procrastinating; the moment the pending land issues are addressed, and the accused surrender illegally acquired land to the government, to settle squatters- our problems will be 3/4 solved; especially in Mt Kenya, Rift valley and the coastal region.
As a kikuyu.. YOU'VE NO IDEA THE DAMAGE THE KENYATTAS HAVE DONE TO AS KENYANS AS WHOLE. We need to start acknowledging that the current situation of kenya is because of the sins of the past and the sins of the present. Kenyas Foundation was built on sand, and now we're reaping the rewards with HEAVY RAIN OF CORRUPTION ERRODING THE VERY FOUNDATION OF SAND JOMO BUILT??
Unfortunately every leader who comes into power wants to acquire wealth... Ruto and his cronies would've been our saviours but unfortunately he's fighting the Kenyatta's for the wrong intentions...
Kenyatta was not in prison but he was in hiding from May Mau who wanted his head & he was allegedly freed from prison on 14 -08-1961 and uhuru Kenyatta was born on 26-10-1961 so he sired him while on prison 🤔🤔
We never learn from our past mistakes as Africans. See what Robert Mugabe did in Zimbabwe? More than fifteen farms to himself and the rest to his thugs in Zanu. The country is on its knees now
This video is full of contradictions. One example is exhaulting J M Kariulki for fighting against unfair land redistribution yet the same same video indicates he was a beneficiary of the same.Same for Jaramogi and Paul Ngei.
@@georgeodhiambo598JM was a con,a populist just like sonko,but people don't want to recognize that because he told them what they wanted to hear and not what they needed to hear? First maize scandal started with him. And his colleagues in land glambing, garden city belong to him with father of David murathe. Huge land in naivasha and nyandarua.
I don't know everything in detail but ..... Karen and Bror Blixen bought the land that they lived on (Karen in Nairobi). I don't know ho sold it to them. When Karen Blixen could no longer stay and her land was auctioned off by her creditors, she humiliated herself and went begging for land for "her" Kikuyus. Kikuyus whose children Karen made a school for and taught during her years in Kenya.
Kenya was empty nani... Nobody was living on those lands... That's why nobody has ever come forward to claim Kenyatta stole what part of his or her land.
@@ghoverhn001what was the population then, do you know why we have kikuyus in lamu? In those days people did not want large farms or in areas they considered dry for example,from thika to kasarani ( that area is where jomo Kenyatta land is huge) and in rift valley ( naivasha to Nakuru) why jomo Kenyatta land is huge. Know the truth so that people don't use your ignorance to play on your desperation and emotions in the name of huslers narrative.
Strange, you'd comment about another African's heavy kikuyu accent Your narration is slow and and disjointed albeit with a heavy african accent if you get my drift 😂

Great story telling. More of this, coving perspectives from all over Kenya.

Thank you for this documentation Jeph! Jomo could have papetretred one of Kenya's biggest scam.

Mau Mau were fighting for their land not independence.
Kenyatta was more of a Kikuyu than a Kenyan.
Some of the Mau Mau members were murdered by the government.
He was the first person to put Kenya on the wrong path.
Very True
Don’t say a kikuyu because in his own constituency poverty is very high. Only his close friends benefited from his looting regardless of tribe.
@@IrushKansaseven the remaining Mau Mau members got nothing.
I don't understand why fighting for their land was not fighting for independence. To me, If you have your land back you have your autonomy back
@@Maina_En it's simple, our history was written by the white man who was afraid of the Mau Mau.That's the truth.The problem is that we always accept everything(we are a very gullible people) without researching.
Just 15 years in power, he grabbed a land size of nyanza region, tribalist number one, but died before even he can enjoy his loots,
Deep
The main reason we have never had TJRC report made public.
Hapo kwa delamea hujajua uhuru alishaa buy some years ago???

First, thanks for watching.
The video is objective. It states facts. And yes the characters are contradictory, saying one thing, but doing the other.
You want lies or facts, uko na..........
I may not know the details about land distribution to JM and Ngei. What gripe do you have with land distribution to Jaramogi?
