The Explainer | The Kenya Military Explained (Part 1)

Brigadier General (Rtd) Ahamed Mohammed: A deputy is a commander in waiting. It’s a tricky position to serve because you aspire to be next in line. You must be humble and understanding. Don't attempt to outshine your boss

[@jerryokwaro1655]

Am sure even Yvonne is enjoying her own show today......the explainer has lived up to its name today.Great stuff

[@tfl4963]

Wow! Brig. (retired) Ahmed Mohammed is a brilliant military officer and strategist. Indeed, he's one of our very best officers and as a citizen am very proud of his service to our nation. His chronological history lesson about our military has got me inspired and glued to the show. Almighty God keep him strong and healthy.

[@tomj.obengo2800]

Truly excellent explanation from Brigadier Mohammed! We need to support him to write a decent book that can be both academic and popular reading at the same time. God bless him.

Very Brilliant mind indeed! Brig Mohamed has explained the life and times of the general with a lot of passion and zeal. Amazing.

[@smalizvoice]

Wow .....🥰the joy and excellence in Brigadier General (Rtd) Ahamed Mohammed, when he is explaining and telling the stories of his collegues is at a notch higher. I can listened to him the whole day.

[@kensimba7868]

What an excellent interview by a brilliant kenyan soldier. Brigadier Ahmed. Thanks for your service sir and God bless Kenya

[@zakayonmwangi6624]

The best explainer so far

[@leelnateofficial3746]

Everytime i see this guy (Brigadier retired) i feel proud. Well articulated and informed.These are folks who should be in charge of Defense.

[@tonnymurunga]

This is the best I've heard when it comes to insights on the Military

They like ZERO shortcuts. But, we KIKUYUS, let's leave that for another day.

[@stephenokombo3064]

True.

[@Simon_Nzioki]

@@generalkago5361 😅😅 but the good thing Kikuyus love of shortcuts isn't out of laziness.

[@duncanouma7354]

This gentleman is a good story teller, his passion shows that as a country we have lost a gem, may he continue resting in peace❤

[@jameskitoto3315]

Such an excellent and clear explanation. Loved it, going through the history. Now we have it here for future reference. "I'll always as a Major in all my ways", are great thing to learn from history. May God bless Brigade. Mohammed, Rtrd Opande, Tonje, and may General Ogolla fade peacefully.

[@mohamedkombo3851]

Marvelous biography brigadier general Mohamed.

[@unclesmooth9718]

The respect and enthusiasm this lead army man has shown general ogolla is more then words can say the passion is up there...am sure the whole army loved ogolla the other side had to take him out😢😢😢😢

[@futureisonline8872]

Todays explainer is on fire❤

[@ismailfami4168]

This man is very knowledgeable on issues military

[@wayando]

He was part of it. Just retired.

[@ruffcast]

should have been appointed CS defense instead of the other one from Garissa

[@mohamedSagal]

he is from garissa too ​@@ruffcast

[@aliabdi5363]

The guy is Dr surgeon veterinary

[@ruffcast]

Brilliant Show! Clearly the late General Ogolla was smart, no wonder his father gave him special treatment right from childhood..As was testified by the sister... father spotted a gifted child early

[@johnathanmunai3891]

The best interview ever..Brigadier oozing wisdom through the interview process...God bless 🙌 you Brigadier Ahmed...@yvonne this was the best decision to have Brig..on the show. I have learnt a lot from him...

[@Enosh254]

If There Was In Interview I Have Enjoyed In My Lifetime, It Is This One. I Was Eyeing For Being A Soldier But It Failed, I Hope I Gonna Be A Soldier In The Field I'm In, Teaching. Thanks For Coming Up This

[@francismaina9495]

Hes very excellent in his explanations n the ranks of the forces also he has really excelled General Ogolla as one most outstanding CDF in this country n very sharp n intelligent officer

[@olivermasheti525]

I wonder if we still have such charismatic and gallant officers who understands their duty and chain of command. What an interview.

[@ahdimaz]

What an excellent explanation about the Late General by RTD Brig Ahmed. Rest Well Our General.

[@sirshem27]

This guy is an excellent story teller ❤❤❤❤

[@MIAden]

Brilliant Brigadier! Very professional and perfect

[@creativebuildsrb89]

Good lessons..the explainer is lit

[@EmmanuelMotelin]

Why is the video quality so low?

[@ItsKiprotich1]

My question too

[@heraldloshi1864]

We lost a military 🪖 gem 💎 Rest in power Sir.

[@massuchess]

The video came through autoplay and Brigadier Ahamed's voice sent me to sleep. Clear and precise. Also very interesting for narrative.

[@mosesnoirere4097]

Please Yvonne your diagrammatic military ranking was wrong. You start from second lieutenant, 1st Lieutenant, Captain, Major, Lieutenant Colonel, Colonel, Brigadier, Major General, Lieutenant General, 4 Star General and finally 5 Star General.

[@mosesogutu9935]

This man is quite admirable... Amazing!

[@mistalova1000]

(Left tenant) is the proper pronunciation as it’s the British rank system Kenya is following. (Lut tenant) is a Yank rank🤷🏾‍♂️

[@peterkamenya6129]

Brigadier Mohammed is Excellent. How i wish one day he is appointed as a minister. I love his brilliance and eloquence.

[@hnaf6279]

Its so Ironical that the media doesn't seem to give two fs about the other men and women who perished in the crash

[@mamwachareagan9101]

Can you substantiate your accusations...yet here we are discussing a general....do you understand who that is.....peleka emotions huko bana.....

[@ruffcast]

They actually did.. the other victims have been covered as well ...i've just watched a story on the late 29 yr old Pilot Benson Magondu who was equally smart and ambitious as his boss

[@hnaf6279]

@mamwachareagan9101 Only a General's life matters? You need help

[@elijahkamau6902]

Very nice explanation from brigadier.I like it

[@bensononyango9750]

I really love how he explained it

[@victorosong132]

A very articulate man

[@benardkwambai6363]

This Man indeed is equal to the task passionate to the military n General his story flows very nice,

[@ongesodan]

True nostalgia ❤ the way he shares the life of Ogolla🎉

[@sangkiplangat9650]

I have understood alot from brigadier general about kdf since the death of president moi ,He explained all the military affairs well to this explanation of General ogolla . He is the best .

[@manuelmacharia4968]

So sad we lost such a son of Kenya. We ought to learn to take pride in our best officers and appreciate and love them for the hard assignment they undertake. Loosing them does not help our country. It also makes our country fragile if we keep loosing them. So disappointing.

[@gayanmocha4276]

From cardets you start as second lieutenant then lieutenant..then to captain .....to mojar

[@bashirmugisa3379]

Am wondering how she's explaining. She was supposed to revise ranks. It's start with 2nd lt. After lt After captain from captain to major. From major to lt.col from lt col to full col

[@lee81721]

​@@bashirmugisa3379 You have to understand that she is a civilian.Hajui hizo mambo za ranks.

[@gayanmocha4276]

@@lee81721 true

[@ceronychebilat3704]

You got wrong,, second lieutenant is the just graduated, brigadier is senior than major by far, u mixed it up

[@theafricanphilosopherqueen3032]

Kindly explain why the veterans who served in the King's African rifles including my dad have never been recognized or honored for their distinguished service to the nation?

[@Simon_Nzioki]

That was for the British Armed Forces to honor them.

[@oma2635]

I like more shows

[@eacoincmubiru5894]

Kudos to Daudi Tonje. The man was a visionary. I can tell you such will never happen in Uganda

Hats off late 4 star general Ogola 🫡

[@vivianmutulis8952]

Brigadier is so knowledgable. I'd not followed the explainer with such passion before. Always wanted to know whats next he was going to say. Yvonne was great, didn't interfere with the flow...

Great history lesson.

Ahmed for your precise and succinct narration of the general's biography. Shameless and mediocre individual we have as the president of our beloved country. May the soul of our Great Gallant General rest easy in eternal peace.

Back in the day, before the 2 coups he talked about majority of cadets who made it to the airforce were from a certain region. A levels , pass in sciences were the bare minimums due to the technical nature of the various tasks ahead... could it be the Omega 3 from fish?
