To add to the story of Njonjo, I would also give my own four encounters with the man whose drooping, squinty but searing eyes, scared off many. A few years later I was sent to cover Mzee Moi in a tour of Laikipia following tribal clashes. The next day, Njonjo called our office, in the era that there were no mobile phones. When I took the call, he was on the line unhappy that we were referring to Mzee Moi as “former President”. He also spent a few minutes to tell me of his two greatest friends whom he held in high esteem: Mzee Moi and renown businessman Joshua Kulei.
