It is with sad sorrow to do
these, as me and millions of Kenyans celebrate our birthdays on this month,
thus it should really be memorable, of course for me it has always been
memorable, with birthday cake and sweets each month, thanks to mum who bakes
cakes, sorry to me am minus four very important teeth.
For the last three decades I have really enjoyed August, but 2012
has made me change my mind after the carjacking event, thus I shall focus on
the events surrounding August in Kenya and also include August 2012.
August 1982 - Coup d’état - this was the ugliest moment on the
Kenyan history for those who were around will tell you, it is the moment when
the economy came to a standstill.
August 22 1978 - the death of our founding father Mzee Jomo
Kenyatta the first president of the republic of Kenya, in Mombasa.
August 1998 The bomb blast occurred in Nairobi.
August 1990 Alexander Muge , Bishop of Anglican Diocese of Eldoret was Murdered.
August 1992 Masinde Muliro passed on.
August 2003 Hon Kijana Wamalwa vice president of the republic of Kenya dies.
Today, Martin Shikuku, Josephine Michuki, 52 dead in Tana river, 4 dead in Maasai Mara and others in Northern Kenya.
As I publish these blog on the first day of September am glad
August is all over.
