Mwai Kibaki's speech at Gachagua's funeral.

[@Kagimbi-Kagambi]

Old is gold. He has grown old serving this country. We'll never forget him... May our loving God grant him good health...

[@rachaeltoili2241]

Who else misses this mans' speeches?😃😃

[@manufacturingdefect1287]

the guy behind him is absolutely fascinated.

[@kenyattamahiga8973]

Mzee Kibaki is a great man. God bless him

[@charlescarvin6570]

Jah bless king kibaki always my best president in kenya ua work was awesome

[@Sarahnjeri354]

This man is great... Only those who were very keen knew the hidden meaning which Hon Mwai wanted to relay .. Very good speech. This made my week am still enjoying watching his speech...

[@beatricekinyua5812]

Just smiling watching this, Wisdom in the old, only few can decipher.So proud of our Great Third President. Live long, God bless.

[@timonjeromlenje2319]

Beatrice Kinyua..... no dear. don't confuse wisdom to senility. he is undergoing a natural stage in life which we all pass through.

[@loginah]

l love him.Exceedingly. So far he is the best President Kenya has had. Dementia aint for the weak hearted.

[@nelinell6475]

Kibaki has not lost it...He is 100% sane. He is used to speaking in parables. Take time to understand...#myman

[@mosesojuang8481]

give yourself fake hopes. he may be sane but he has lost it!

[@nelinell6475]

moses ojuang' Even as president he used to speak like that...Nothing has changed, just age. Dimentia in Africa kicks in at 100 years plus. My man Obako is still here for a while. Get wise words. Listen to understand, not to form an opinion

[@komajagensupplies8824]

+moses ojuang' chief mzee akiwa ameketi anaona mbali kuliko kipii iko juu ya mti

[@abrahamkimani7855]

parables he uses,,,,you know gachagua hates kibaki ..

[@neroetal]

This guy is reciting a poem in many words ... He is speaking the truth which takes wisdom to relate to what is currently affecting our country

[@mosesojuang8481]

The king is naked....only the wise can see his clothes! eti wisdom!!

[@lilianmulusa7023]

moses ojuang'

[@isaackanyita2786]

waaa haha..Kibaki made my day...May God grant him a peaceful retirement from now henceforth as he enjoys his hard earned wealth...still remains to be my best president

[@gabwainii]

Kibaki had a sense in what he said even though in a complicated way. Only the wise can understand

[@mosesojuang8481]

eti complicated! hahahhahaa he could have as well spoken in tongues! this is the worst gibberish he has spewed on us. let the old fellow rest!

[@LewiJez]

Not even the Russian hackers can hack what he has said

[@dralexjoycenganga1256]

i will always cherish my former president at all time. he is a leader. may GOD ALMIGHTY provide him with good health and be strong. its like the accident really affected him. am soooooooooo sooooorry for you dad wa taifa

[@bensonrono1928]

its only the blessed ones understood his message

[@nicolaskaihura3357]

he says 'kijana' tells the truth, he never tells a lie, and warns that person who says this at one place then goes to a different place and says the opposite, then there is nothing that you are telling the people and have nothing to help the people with, by saying "sisis wazima" he means that "we are adults" and he does not have to explain to adults the meaning of his words

[@jaynejane731]

very true. he speaks in parables

[@mosesojuang8481]

NICOLAS KAIHURA please feel sorry for the old man. stop pretending to interpret. the old fellow shouldnt have been dragged to that funeral to make a fool of himself. he was a good man but its over. see the change in demenour of those listening. at first they were laughing but in the end you see pity creeping in. very sad indeed!

[@JAMESKANJA15]

If you used to listen to him as President, you'll know he speaks in parables when he wants to sting. He simply said Kamwana speaks the truth and that other guy who says one thing today and another tomorrow isnt to be trusted. He said they should vote for Kamwana because plans are there to take the country forward & we can see them being executed. About 2022 he said first we deal with the next election & then we'll see what to do thereafter because as you know, politics is fluid. The demeanor of those listening is dependent on if they can decipher what he is saying or like you, have assumed because of his age he isnt making sense.

[@robzmagiq86]

You should change ur last name to mtungi....someone once said "You don't stop laughing when you grow old, you grow old when you stop laughing".

[@edwardnjuguna4900]

kweli

[@KaniniTheJeli]

the effective presidents seldom make great speeches. Kudos Kibaki

[@danielmachariamuriuki6566]

He is speaking in parables and giving a warning to someone regarding 2022 presidency.. haiya someone needs to be told the truth "mambo imepangwa"

[@miriammwonge1300]

He repeated statements about 'truth...truth...and truth' which people need to take heed. But he looks unwell, may God heal and protect him.

[@marymary2090]

Mwai Kibaki's still man of people, very humble nice to see you remain blessed.

[@papahbabak]

Mzee Kibaki should be allowed to simply rest and enjoy his time instead of being dragged into giving speeches in such gatherings. Alimaliza kazi yake kama rais

[@nancykenya8431]

yes wallah

[@irenendegwa9420]

Michael Papah aki he has totally lost his memory wooiye

[@papahbabak]

Nakwambia Irene. He used to be very astute and sharp in his hey days. I think imekuwa worse baada wa mtu wake kumwacha!

[@irenendegwa9420]

Yeah it affected him alot.

[@dennisochego5392]

infact heis old......mzee apewe lishe bora..akiwa kwake

[@corrychirchir8996]

He's just happy to be alive!

[@charlesonyango6209]

Kibaki will remain a National figure, his presence alone reflects recognition and respect a coded to him by the people of Kenya even with the challenges he may face due to age or health condition , Kenyans would always enjoy his company.

[@VNduks]

It's sad to see him like this... we wish you good health Baba Jimmy!

[@siogopimtu]

this is quite disheartening....can't believe this. Totally uncoordinated, may the Lord restore this great man's health!

[@jnickelabungu]

I was able to decode this message after listening to it 7 times.

[@Jabepoma]

Each person enters and exits old age differently. God Bless you president MK

[@jo-mp4kx]

Ok I have literally laughed through out the speech waaah

[@metrinenasambu7279]

Ghai! missing the voice aki thank you kibaki. kumbe ata wewe unajuwa?

[@Chris-cb2dj]

ata sijaelewa alisema nini,long speech by sijarada anything,you were the best prezzo ever God bless u

[@omomuraensona3334]

may God help this former president, he's losing memory at a fast rate.

[@peshpatroba6171]

MICHAEL O hahahaaa u made my evening

[@omomuraensona3334]

Pesh Patroba it's not a joke, this learned guy and don't forget he was a lecturer. a president and most powerful few years ago

[@julianamakau8742]

MICHAEL O True. Seems he doesnt knw what he is saying

[@omomuraensona3334]

Remember the former USA president Reagan when he had alzhimers i.e dementia, his family had to take care of him from home and avoided gathering. this doesn't mean we do the same to kibaki, this guy is rich and all he could do is send representative. he has educated sons, he has a second wife who happens to be MP. so he should be worried

[@Mnduta]

wooi michael o the second wife is worse in giving a speech hehehe she talks kikuyu kiswahili..bt i agree kibaki shud rest

[@yovesolela7153]

hata kibaki anajua hajui

[@nancykenya8431]

very funny

[@ClaytonOmwanga]

yoves olela pwakhakhakha

[@rachaeltoili2241]

yoves olela 😂😂😂

[@abunick7926]

hahahahaha

[@MrSololimoh]

Hahahaha

[@DanielOwinoOgweno]

The organisers must not have known that Mzee Kibaki has "lost something". I believe next time, they will not put him through this. They should just allow him rest. I hope he will not mind not being given a chance to speak.

[@Sarakassy]

mzee is stretching kweli kweli. We will miss him as a nation! Was a good economical growth under him...hongera!

[@timothybolo1062]

It's sad that people here could not quickly understand that Mzee was somehow not himself.

[@robertndegwa2558]

thanks His Highness king Mwai Kibaki,We miss you..he was position one in makelele economics class 1955.moses ojwang' have you ever held such as a position in anything ata kula?????

[@alexandermukuha9843]

Mzee kibaki JUNGLE LAGUAGE with kijana, mimi sijui, well n good labda kijana alijua.

[@virginiacarolinewanjiru556]

The truth will set you free! What is the truth! Jesus is the Truth!

[@worldclass424]

kibaki should actually rest.stop disturbing him with speeches

[@alexokemwa3383]

Let us stop focusing on minor and unimportant issues concerning Kibaki's speech eloquence. He stands as the only Kenyan president who truly worked to make our nation great and we respect him very much. it's unfortunate this government has managed to destroy completely the development legacy of Kibaki and Rails government

[@Okwash1]

Alex Okemwa .......Great and then took us back 100 years by stealing elections ama wewe ulikuwa una nyonya 2008?

[@worldclass424]

Gibbs Jakatiga silly

[@ndungugitahi1675]

watching this and comparing to what we have now...ooh my it's like heaven and hell

[@kiwishbj1]

If Kibaki could not even remember his children's names in 2002.... I didn't expect anything better to come from him now 15 years later.

[@judywanjiru208]

only a smart person would figure out his deep message and warning ... some pple wil be caught off guard heheh

[@mosesojuang8481]

only the wise can see the clothes....we poor mortals are only seeing a naked king!

[@judywanjiru208]

+moses ojuang' hehe realy

[@eva9119]

Judy Wanjiru Yes we undetstood

[@eveeve432]

Fallen hero.

[@luamboluanzomakiadi5722]

I understand now why he had to view Moi in camera.

[@LUCY-yx3xo]

At the expense of looking disillusioned, Kibaki made so much sense and spoke about issues without mentioning names. This is a skill that should be parents. The first part of his speech he is speaking about Raila, and the fact that he knows that he wants to say the truth that the budget should be passed... Key terms kazi ya Gachagua iendelee and opposition wakae somewhere on the side put that in mind and listen again and then you will understand. Kama umesomea siasa na unajua ukweli utaskia ukweli.... well the people of Nyeri know the truth they can't be lied to... mtu wanmpango moja asikupotezee

[@ESSYQUEEN]

Woiie mzee kibaki anafaa maombi afya yake naomba MUNGU AMPE AFYA IN JESUS NAME

[@irenendegwa9420]

Woooiye kibaki is loosing his memory,,,, he shud not be drugged into delivering speech anymore.

[@mosesojuang8481]

losing and loosing are miles apart in difference.

[@012345678956600]

Good health you made me go to school during his power .. now am using thika super high way

[@ayoookiki]

The old man was talking politics here...."Sijakuwa kwa siasa siku zilizopita, lakini nimesikia mambo hapa na pale" Kijana aambiwe ukweli......The Kijana must be either Ruto or Gideon. But definitely it is Ruto. Then there is another kijana "Uhuru" ambaye wanafanya naye kazi pamoja. Anyway this is 2022 politics the guy is talking about. Ruto aambiwe ukweli.

[@thuraku]

DAVID OKIKI Good observation. Coded message.

[@mosesojuang8481]

Those are your fake observations David Okiki....the old man rambled and embarassed everybody except himself. he didnt even know where he was. very sad indeed.

[@komajagensupplies8824]

+moses ojuang' even a fool is wise until he opens his mouth

[@abunick7926]

This guy has grown old bana...he should be home...

[@MalaOMala]

"His speech today was for the intelligent not everyone. While we are busy looking for mistakes the Elite and the smart understood everything. The reason we are called common Mwananchi is because we are common. We are nothing out of the norm. Show me a politician even in opposition or their kids who will make fun of this. Of course we the commoners do. So when going to Gachagua's burial site who attends? Ofcourse the who is who. Whether we pretend to give prognosis to the former president or not, we are watching him on TV and that's the closest we get to him. We know too much yet too little. God Bless President Kibaki. If you didn't understand, the speech was not for you. Otherwise he would have used English or Kikuyu to be understood easily but instead chose Kiswahili to speak in Parables. 90% of people never understood his speeches when he was president coz they were busy laughing and he knew. He has deep speeches..." @RosyMuita

[@maevokworld4898]

Whoever gave Kibaki a chance to speak should have briefed him where he was and why.... "sasa ata aliye mpatia nafasi hakumwambia ukweli na hajui anajua"

[@charleskibiro9159]

I agree. Mzee kibaki should be allowed to rest. Respectfully.

[@maryland7360]

aki woiye mambo hayo ni hayo old is gold

[@benardwachira6468]

kama wewe uko na hekima utaelewa venye mzee anasema.mundu muugi ndari miiheere ya uhoro.

[@petzgithuka818]

Benard Wachira I agree with you

[@mosesojuang8481]

kama uko na hekima utaona mzee amevaa nguo, sisi wajinga twamuona uchi tu!

[@princesskwamboka8191]

Wah! 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

[@ezekielmwangi3733]

It's only a medic who can understand the effect of the tragic accident he experienced back in 2002...

[@jakesfares408]

Oh my God, why did they let him last even a minute?That is torture to national hero!They should not make him give public speeches again, this is sad, i am sad!

[@jonnyaga8904]

Mzee Kibaki is not acting but speaking in parables, and he is hitting at known politicians who generally lie in everything they say and can not be consistent. Those who attended the funeral to gain political millage in Central region are well known, and that is what the mzee is hinting at.

[@jeromejerry7591]

I think Kibaki addressed the most sensitive political issues of the near future. What is the relationship between Kibaki and Moi and Uhuru. I feel like he was teling Ruto to have a second and third plan because 'hapa wanaongea siasa' He is telling people about development but people think its lies. They are not telling him the truth how the future will go. Anybody saying Kibaki is Senile should take an energy drink and play the clip thrice.

[@evansstmuga]

I must revisit this video until I understand

[@yvonnechichi4624]

I cant understand this..can somebody explain this to me?

[@felixmugwe2768]

May God bless you Kibaki

[@animalworld7473]

Only the wise can understand the old man..

[@mukandaedward390]

Hii speech iko very powerful, but at a wrong venue

[@sophiemwega]

his kiswahili is refined!!!!

[@BrandedText]

To all of you saying Kibaki was speaking in parables. Why didn't he eulogize Gachagua in parables??

[@MegaPolyps]

kibaki knew very well what he was talking about....let that person who can read between the parable get the point!

[@mathenge1938]

mzee anajaribu kuhimiza wanasiasa waambiane ukweli...sio kusunguka hapa na pale ukiambia wananchi vile serikali haijafanya kazi na tunaiyona

[@vallerianwisdom7160]

I am trying to understand what he's saying. ??????????

[@catherineapeles4022]

He shouldn't have talked was it a must?Didn't understand a thing and I tried to listen.

[@tabithamasinde3617]

alright,can the wise explain!!

[@shalomoneal7766]

Kibaki was commenting on Ruto/kiunjuri speeches,He should have called them "mavi ya kuku"!!!

[@Sarahnjeri354]

Although it is a fact Kiswahili huwa kinampiga chenga mheshiwa Rais mustaafu wa jamhuri yetu ya Kenya Mwai Kibaki..

[@arnoldmugo3874]

[@lydiachege818]

wooooi iko shinda kwa mzee

[@glorialuvandwa3576]

Huyu ni Obako kweli??😟😟

[@djfreshadam7105]

Very sad he doesn't have any clue about what he is talking about,I feel for the people who where trying to make sense out of crap

[@jeromejerry7591]

he has a clue a very strong message

[@djfreshadam7105]

Jerome Jerry few got it I didn't get it

[@timonjeromlenje2319]

djfresh adam..... my friend,it is called tribalism. his tribesmen somehow feel obliged to decifer his presumably corded speech. but the truth of the matter is that the man is undergoing a natural stage of old age which has affected his thinking

[@komajagensupplies8824]

if you followed Jesus you would think he is mad...wisdom is folly to the fool

[@allanotieno1301]

he's old...let him rest

[@simonmuya9560]

True hero. our third president may the Lord bless you and grant you long life kibaki

[@margretwangari1018]

Hahahaha missing kibaki Sana😁😁

[@jamesoguta9013]

Unajua unajua mtu anakuambia ukweli. Unajua anajua

[@aberih.chweya1007]

Okay, kumbe ukizeeka unakuwa kama mtoto? Lets allow this mzee to rest.

[@kenkim8385]

Mzee Kibaki...😢

[@wanjirukinyanjui2900]

Ken Kim 😢

[@benkiboen9102]

Mwai Kibaki is speechless 👉. He is uttering nothing constructive and relevant to the matter. Moi is better 100 times though too Old.

[@shunajla]

Woye

[@mylesjahmu1443]

let the old man be himself .

[@danielnyakundi9879]

I think Kibaki is giving a coded warning or advise to someone, regarding the truth.

[@MegaMie77]

What? Mambo gani, uongo! Ndivyo hivo.

[@wanjikucaroline5323]

wooiiii mzee

[@samdeman2011]

ooh my God this is strange guys

[@donnamikasa3404]

I've tried to understand what mzee kibaki s referring to but all in vain, his speech is full of parables.... it requires serious interpretation

[@colbos1]

Mzee anajua mpango huo, huo ndio ukweli, anazungumza mambo ya ukweli.
