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...

Curious Silence Amid Suspicion Surrounding the Mysterious Death of General Francis Omondi Ogolla


In a sombre atmosphere tinged with suspicion, the untimely demise of General Francis Omondi Ogolla, Kenya's Chief of Defence Forces, has ignited fervent calls for a thorough investigation into the circumstances surrounding his tragic helicopter crash. Because CDFs just don't die...not in helicopter crashes, and certainly not during peace time.
Despite the nation's shock, one voice remains notably reticent: Joel Rabuku Ogolla, the late general's son, who seems overly inclined to swallow the official state narrative, hook, line, and sinker, without question.

Siaya Senator Dr Oburu Odinga's impassioned plea for transparency underscores the prevailing sentiment of unease.

Drawing parallels to past tragedies and unresolved mysteries, including the deaths of Tom Mboya and Dr Robert Ouko, Dr Oburu highlights a disturbing pattern of high-profile figures, disproportionately from Luo Nyanza, meeting untimely ends under dubious circumstances.

Of particular concern is Joel Ogolla's apparent reluctance to entertain the notion of foul play.

His hesitance raises eyebrows, especially in light of Defense CS Aden Duale's ominous remarks regarding President William Ruto's intentions towards the late general. The spectre of political vendettas looms large, casting doubt on the integrity of the official investigation process.

Wiper Party leader Kalonzo Musyoka echoes the public's demand for transparency, emphasising the national significance of uncovering the truth behind General Ogolla's tragic demise. Martha Karua and Siaya Governor James Orengo also join the chorus of voices advocating for a comprehensive probe into the accident, recognising the gravity of the situation and the need for accountability.

In the wake of such grave suspicions, one cannot help but wonder: has Joel Ogolla been compromised by the state's influence? The parallels to past instances of familial persuasion by the powers that be, as seen in the case of Robert Ouko's family, raise troubling questions about the potential suppression of truth in the pursuit of political expediency.

As the nation mourns the loss of a distinguished military leader, the call for justice grows louder. In a time of uncertainty and speculation, one thing remains clear: the legacy of General Francis Omondi Ogolla demands nothing less than a relentless pursuit of truth and accountability.
