Dennis Daudi Afande was Kenya's ambassador to Washington in 1990 when President Daniel Moi and Foreign Affairs minister Robert Ouko toured the US. Ouko was murdered soon after the trip and Afande was among those who testified in the inquest. The trip became central to the investigation as speculations were rife that Ouko had sharply differed with some Cabinet colleagues, leading to his gruesome murder. Afande is remembered to have advised President Moi against taking the Washington trip. I then called Robert Ouko, it would have been about a day later, or the same day.
