The Legacy of Fear: How the Shadow of Jaramogi Oginga Odinga Shaped Kenya's Political Landscape In the annals of Kenya's political history, the events of 1969 stand out as a defining moment marked by fear, coercion, and manipulation. The political tension surrounding Jaramogi Oginga Odinga's candidature led to a series of oath-taking ceremonies in Gatundu that forever altered the fabric of Kenyan society. Understanding this historical context is crucial, especially when contemporary politicians attempt to invoke these dark chapters for political gain. The Fear of Jaramogi and the Birth of the Gatundu Oath The roots of the infamous Gatundu oath can be traced back to the fear and propaganda surrounding Jaramogi Oginga Odinga, the former vice-president and then-leader of the opposition. By 1969, the political landscape in Kenya was charged with tension. The assassination of Cabinet Minister Tom Mboya on 5th July 1969 had already set a volatile backdrop. Within this context, Pr...

“Quarcoo Aliniangalia Na Madharau” – Andrew Kibe Reveals Why He Left Kiss 100

"I'm married but I've been single for years." - Andrew Kibe
Former Kiss 100 presenter Andrew Kibe has finally revealed why he left his much touted gig at the Radio Africa-owned station just one year into the job.

Speaking to Jalas on his YouTube channel, Bonga na Jalas, Kibe said he fell out with his boss Patrick Quarcoo before giving a three-month notice. However, he did not let anyone in on the decision, not even his co-host Kamene Goro. “Just when Covid hit, mimi na mdosi wangu tukakosana, because huyu msee aliniangalia na madharau. You don’t want anybody to pity you. My boss looked at me with contempt and I decided I can’t work with him,” he said.

“One day early morning, I sent him a message saying, ‘Three months from today, I will leave that office.’ I told friends and everyone in my life but they did not believe me. They were all in denial. I didn’t tell anybody anything, even Kamene came to know the other day and she is devastated,” he added. Kibe revealed that he was inebriated when negotiating his exit. He also heaped praise on his former co-host with whom he worked and dramatically exited NRG Radio.

Kibe bid his fans goodbye on Tuesday morning via Twitter: “It’s been real watu nguyas. I will miss all your nonsense in the morning especially @KameneGoro,” he Tweeted.


During the YouTube show, Jalas also revealed that he will be filling Kibe’s position, but did not state when that will be. Speculation was already rife that the former Milele FM presenter was headed to Lion’s Place. He did not confirm nor deny, however, instead noting that he had spoken with Quarcoo. “But I want to say I might end up on Waiyaki Way. On Waiyaki Way there are so many radios. But I had an amazing meeting with my friend, my boss, the first person who ever gave me my first-ever radio contract, Mr Patrick Quarcoo. We had a long discussion, so take away NRG Radio, but I think I might end up back where it all began, Radio Africa. Which radio, I still don’t know; could be Kiss 100, Classic FM or Jambo,” he said.
