Kariuki <\/span><\/span><span style=\"font-family: Times New Roman, serif;\"><span style=\"font-size: large;\">and now I was curious to see <\/span><\/span><span style=\"font-family: Times New Roman, serif;\"><span style=\"font-size: large;\">the living legend<\/span><\/span><span style=\"font-family: Times New Roman, serif;\"><span style=\"font-size: large;\">. <\/span><\/span><span style=\"font-family: Times New Roman, serif;\"><span style=\"font-size: large;\">And seeing him <\/span><\/span><span style=\"font-family: Times New Roman, serif;\"><span style=\"font-size: large;\">I did. I remember he brought a friend from Zambia, who stood up to greet the crowd <\/span><\/span><span style=\"font-family: Times New Roman, serif;\"><span style=\"font-size: large;\">and <\/span><\/span><span style=\"font-family: Times New Roman, serif;\"><span style=\"font-size: large;\">w<\/span><\/span><span style=\"font-family: Times New Roman, serif;\"><span style=\"font-size: large;\">e greeted <\/span><\/span><span style=\"font-family: Times New Roman, serif;\"><span style=\"font-size: large;\">him back <\/span><\/span><span style=\"font-family: Times New Roman, serif;\"><span style=\"font-size: large;\">with a thunderous Nyandarua welcome<\/span><\/span><span style=\"font-family: Times New Roman, serif;\"><span style=\"font-size: large;\">. I remember my mother commenting about the Zambian \u201chii egukenga ta maguta\u201d translation \u201cwow, he glistens like oil\u201d. <\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"western\" align=\"justify\"><span style=\"font-family: Times New Roman, serif;\"><span style=\"font-size: large;\">It was at the same meeting that J.M. introduced his <\/span><\/span><span style=\"font-family: Times New Roman, serif;\"><span style=\"font-size: large;\">new<\/span><\/span><span style=\"font-family: Times New Roman, serif;\"><span style=\"font-size: large;\"> wife Wanjiru from Dagoretti. I remember her standing next to him and waving to the crowd. <\/span><\/span><span style=\"font-family: Times New Roman, serif;\"><span style=\"font-size: large;\">I thought she was so pretty dressed in Kitenge head gear and loop earrings. <\/span><\/span><span style=\"font-family: Times New Roman, serif;\"><span style=\"font-size: large;\">I was less than 10 years old <\/span><\/span><span style=\"font-family: Times New Roman, serif;\"><span style=\"font-size: large;\">but <\/span><\/span><span style=\"font-family: Times New Roman, serif;\"><span style=\"font-size: large;\">the events of that meeting <\/span><\/span><span style=\"font-family: Times New Roman, serif;\"><span style=\"font-size: large;\">has remained fresh in my mind <\/span><\/span><span style=\"font-family: Times New Roman, serif;\"><span style=\"font-size: large;\">all these years later<\/span><\/span><span style=\"font-family: Times New Roman, serif;\"><span style=\"font-size: large;\">. Maybe its because of the shocking assassination of J.M. Kariuki that followed soon after, making it personal to the child I was back then. <\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"western\" align=\"justify\"><span style=\"font-family: Times New Roman, serif;\"><span style=\"font-size: large;\">I felt <\/span><\/span><span style=\"font-family: Times New Roman, serif;\"><span style=\"font-size: large;\">like I <\/span><\/span><span style=\"font-family: Times New Roman, serif;\"><span style=\"font-size: large;\">knew the <\/span><\/span><span style=\"font-family: Times New Roman, serif;\"><span style=\"font-size: large;\">man.

That was personal to me. <\/span><\/span> <span style=\"font-family: Times New Roman, serif;\"><span style=\"font-size: large;\">I guess that is why I still remember <\/span><\/span><span style=\"font-family: Times New Roman, serif;\"><span style=\"font-size: large;\">that meeting this many decades later<\/span><\/span><span style=\"font-family: Times New Roman, serif;\"><span style=\"font-size: large;\">. <\/span><\/span> <span style=\"font-family: Times New Roman, serif;\"><span style=\"font-size: large;\">Anybody <\/span><\/span><span style=\"font-family: Times New Roman, serif;\"><span style=\"font-size: large;\">else<\/span><\/span><span style=\"font-family: Times New Roman, serif;\"><span style=\"font-size: large;\"> who was at that meeting <\/span><\/span><span style=\"font-family: Times New Roman, serif;\"><span style=\"font-size: large;\">back in mid 1970s<\/span><\/span><span style=\"font-family: Times New Roman, serif;\"><span style=\"font-size: large;\">? <\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"western\" align=\"justify\"><span style=\"font-family: Times New Roman, serif;\"><span style=\"font-size: large;\">One person I am certain was at that J.M. meeting is our local <\/span><\/span><span style=\"font-family: Times New Roman, serif;\"><span style=\"font-size: large;\">Chief Apollo. It was such meetings where the Chief was always present, sitting on the platform with the visiting dignitaries. That is how we knew the Chief must be <\/span><\/span><span style=\"font-family: Times New Roman, serif;\"><span style=\"font-size: large;\">an<\/span><\/span><span style=\"font-family: Times New Roman, serif;\"><span style=\"font-size: large;\"> important <\/span><\/span><span style=\"font-family: Times New Roman, serif;\"><span style=\"font-size: large;\">government official<\/span><\/span><span style=\"font-family: Times New Roman, serif;\"><span style=\"font-size: large;\">.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"western\" align=\"justify\"><span style=\"font-family: Times New Roman, serif;\"><span style=\"font-size: large;\">The picture above was the <\/span><\/span><span style=\"font-family: Times New Roman, serif;\"><span style=\"font-size: large;\">OlKalou <\/span><\/span><span style=\"font-family: Times New Roman, serif;\"><span style=\"font-size: large;\">home of <\/span><\/span><span style=\"font-family: Times New Roman, serif;\"><span style=\"font-size: large;\">J.M. Kariuki.\u00a0 In the vicinity was the largest village (gichagi) left behind by the colonial masters.\u00a0 It came to be known as Gichagi kia J.M.\u00a0 Word has it that he advocated for the dismantling of that village and others like it, resettling their peasant occupants on individual pieces of land all over OlKalou.\u00a0 He spearheaded or oversaw one of the greatest projects of bringing piped water into OlKalou homes, a project that benefited every home in OlKalou in those early 1970s, but collapsed with his demise and no other politician has managed to revive it to this date.\u00a0 From the two acts alone, J.M. rightfully earned himself the title of being a true common man&#8217;s advocate. I did not know his politics or personal life, but what I know is what he did for us in OlKalou. <\/span><\/span><span style=\"font-family: Times New Roman, serif;\"><span style=\"font-size: large;\">That is why when I dwell on the subject of J.M. Kariuki, I am only expressing what I grew up hearing from the adults who truly knew who J.M. Kariuki was to them.\u00a0 Bible says in Matthew 7:16 You will know them by their fruits&#8221;.\u00a0 Below are some famous J.M. quotes:<\/span><\/span><span id=\"en-NKJV-23332\" class=\"text Matt-7-15\"><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: Times New Roman, serif;\"><span style=\"font-size: large;\"><span lang=\"en\">&#8220;Kenya has become a nation of 10 millionaires and 10 million beggars.&#8221;<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: Times New Roman, serif;\"><span style=\"font-size: large;\"><span lang=\"en\">&#8220;Every Kenyan man, woman and child is entitled to a decent and just living. That is a birthright. It is not a privilege. He is entitled as far as is humanly possible to equal educational, job and health opportunities irrespective of his parentage, race or creed or his area of origin in this land. If that is so, deliberate efforts should be made to eliminate all obstacles that today stand in the way of this just goal. That is the primary task of the machinery called Government: our Government.&#8221;<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: Times New Roman, serif;\"><span style=\"font-size: large;\"><span lang=\"en\">&#8220;We fought for independence with sweat, blood and our lives. Many of us suffered for inordinate days \u2013 directly and indirectly. Many of us are orphans, widows and children as a result of the struggle. We must ask: What did we suffer for, and were we justified in that suffering?&#8221;<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>AC Primary is where I accompanied my mother to attend a J.M.
