Alot can be said about Moi, but his heart for children was in the right place.

[@lemzywonder]

Agreed

[@janetmacharia3121]

Its very interesting the way we have different perspectives about this man who ruined the lives of soo many people who were affected by the clashes of 92 and 97 in the Rift Valley. Loosing homes, parents, relatives. To me this person became the devil incarnate because of what he did to us.

[@wanjirus4809]

Very true.

[@sylviamwangi1117]

@@janetmacharia3121 that is also true. Just acknowledging that even in the midst of all ills that happened during his regime, there are those who say his hidden side of generosity.

[@Blueboy-d8m]

​@@janetmacharia3121pole for what your pain. Sorry to ask you, did someone tell you that he ruined your lives or did you hear this from others? I need to know where this narrative comes from because it's truly confusing when the same person means opposite to others. I assumed the clashes were between 2 ethnicities not a directive from above. I say this because it's very easy to apportion blame on a person just because of his alignment. It's like you always hearing people that "the Smith" family are evil because one of their son's killed someone 20 years ago. You will end up passing this narrative to generations when it's not necessarily true about the whole family. I pray that God will bring justice to you and your family one day and I pray that you will heal from the pain and loss. Have you all gone for counseling?

My father was the founding principal of Kabarak. Good to see the fruits of his labor.

[@susaneklow1326]

That about feeding at mission school, I resonate… we suffered a lot of hunger…

[@Wanairobi]

I wish such content was available when I was a high schooler. I think it would have been life changing 🧐

[@T.Marodza]

Irregardless of your infirmities,grace has a way of placing you to where you belong

[@bornfacemwaura]

As a teacher, this story is just life-changing.

[@christinekadima8677]

Working from a point of acknowledging the blessings of God and not from escaping poverty.. so powerful and a game changer. Thank you 😊

[@patrickkilele309]

Awesome

[@kitawimwakitele]

Oh lord. My first high school crush as a mono!!!

[@ChristelleGM]

Mercy you did well, at such a young age. Our childhood story is really similar but your determination out pass mine soo much. Well done to you, hope to see you one day

[@joekaruga-Natka]

I thought Changez was dope but waah Kabarak is 🔥

[@aashirumargaretchege6527]

Na mursik I saw it in Kimalel Boarding we were the ones was in charge in his dining.. Late President Moi was the best 👌

[@zipporahwangui5411]

Mzee Moi loved children,he loved school and loved education.My mum and I schooled in schools he greatly supported.I would look forward to his visits because that would mean feast and true to Mercy's word,he was like 'watoto wakule nyama' and a whole cow was chinjwad..He would even settle fees for the less fortunate. We also did do preps after friday we resumme class on Monday.

[@philwekhomba907]

Kabarak is a great school. Blessed to have attended Kabarak; shaped who I am today. Moi was a great man and Patron to the school.

[@janetmacharia3121]

I have respect for CTA, and good for you people who never had to encounter the ruin he brought upon the lives of many. Economic ruin, Nyayo House torture chambers where some of our own were put in. Clashes where I remember having to escape from.home with my two younger sisters who were 4 years then in tow. I was a child at only 10yrs at night escaping from people who were killing and torching the homes of Kikuyus. Tribalism is a monster.

[@wanjirus4809]

Exactly this. My family and I fell on the other side of the coin when it came to this man. Deep, deep wounds that have impacted generations.

[@Blueboy-d8m]

I know a Kalenjin - Major Belsoi who was beheaded in this same clashes. I truly hope that there will be a reconciliation meeting had where the two communities will sit down and talked about what happened - the truth, recognize the pains caused ,Ask for forgiveness and even though the loss of lives can't be reversed - it'll be a start so that we can stop hating a whole tribe because of some individuals who committed these crimes.

[@josephinew.n.macharia3050]

I remember that meat counting in Mountie and sometimes people would miss... Surely, growing children with limited protein ... Rights against humanity!! My brothers went to Kabarak, kumbe they lived in a different world from me.

[@chikaabtwn2244]

Moi was a terrible dictator he ruined Kenya's economy BUT he left a legacy in education, he built an education institution that will last ! Other wealthy men leave zero institutions.

[@TrizaKimundui]

I am lucky I went to the university as a govt. Sponsored. Kabarak University is a good place. I loved it

[@sabrinaumuro260]

Same here ❤

[@wanjirus4809]

Those who were "close" to power benefited. Im here asking myself why God didnt give me such a chance and why He allowed Moi to carry out the atrocities he did.

[@Luciafarms]

The truth I am a witness to what she is saying having schooled there.

[@cosmasmutungi8017]

50Gs was collosal back then. Ours was 22Gs a year.

[@thomasochieng8402]

I went to St. Mary's Yala, The School

[@briankimotho5622]

To be honest l truly honor President Moi now....to all he blessed may he Rest in Peace

[@Flexxtheman]

President Daniel Toroitich Arap Moi is the greatest President Kenya has ever had. Kabarak is the best school ever!!

[@aashirumargaretchege6527]

If my parents saw something in me at Kimalel boarding right now I could be someone else the school was so great esp in education and talents walai everything swept away after transferred to day school at home which no activities coz of 1992 clashes and Kabarak is just outside there we're neighborhood 🥹🥹
