Kimani Ngunjiri-Moi encounter
Kimani Ngunjiri began his political career after retired President Moi helped him solve land issue in Kiamunyi.
According to Kimani Ngunjiri, a white man had promised to sell him a piece of land. The deal, however, went sour after a rich and influential man got interested in the house and a deal was hatched to evict Ngunjiri.
Sensing defeat in the struggle for the piece of house, Ngunjiri jogged his mind and laid a strategy.
He waited for former President Daniel Moi’s motorcade as he drove from his Kabarak home to Nakuru State House, armed with his records on the purchase of the piece of land, Ngunjiri decided to do the unimaginable: he jumped in the middle of the road as Mtukufu Rais waved to the crowd.
He caught the presidential security guard unaware and by the time they tried to whisk him away Moi told them to ‘wachana na yeye’ in his usual heavy accented Kiswahili.
Mzee ordered his security ‘boys’ to have Ngunjiri ride with him in one of his escort motorcade up to State House where he narrated his misery at the hands of a rich and influential man who wanted to swindle him a piece of land he had worked so hard to have.
