    "..do you know if its a friend..do you know if its an enemy..lets go back to sleep.."..O.G ..real O.G🤣🤣
  • What a master piece story. I was somewhere in rural Kenya as a class 7 pupil. All I can remember seeing were low flying jets emerging from the hills of Tinderet and cruising towards Kisumu. Long live Kenya
  • Great patriots. They are very proud of them.These are great, Kenyans. Their courage and quick thinking saved Kenya from military rule.

    Wow! Such great storytelling.I didn't know so much occurred during the coup, including bombings. God bless these brave men who saved a nation 🙏
  • Long Live Ochuka, he had bravery that only a few possess. If moi had been ousted in 82 or even earlier kenya would've become like wakanda or a utopianesqe african powerhouse by now. We should not let ruto and his cronies return us to the moi era. We have sacrificed too much to come this far, whether by blood or ballot tyrants must fall.

    "This account provides more insights than previous reports. It felt like a scene from a movie! I vividly recall the helicopters flying from Embakasi and attacking the air base. In fact, they flew over our house in Eastlands, and the buffalo aircraft flew low over our neighborhood too! What a remarkable time!"

    Nice documentary, great piece of work. Ibrahim Karanja kudos
  • The soldier who escaped to Sweden GG Ngatia has a YouTube channel called Kenya Red Alliance (Makozewe)
  • Its unfair for everyone to pretend not to notice how well kempt they are, Very smart, very clean spotless shirts & suits even in old age. True soldiers.
  • These are the heroes who deserve those OGW awards not influencers and tiktokers. I am still dumbfounded that I had never heard of some of the names here. As Kenyans we thank you for your service.
