One day while in parliament buildings, Raila happen to mention to another legislator friend from Nyanza the fact that he had had a nightmare recently had that caused him to wake up sweating and shaking in horror. He had woken up shouting the words, wapi Kibaki.
Kalonzo overheard that last remark and was shocked and quickly approached Agwambo. "Agwambo, my friend," he said in his usual hypocritical high-pitched voice, I had exactly the same nightmare. How can this be? I also woke up screaming the words wapi Kibaki. Please describe the nightmare."
Raila started sweating and told Kalonzo; "Please it is too terrifying, you describe your nightmare first?"
So they argued back and forth and finally moved on to their other duties in the August house without revealing the exact nature of their dreams which seemed to have been similar and ended with them waking up while they were still screaming the words; Wapi Kibaki?
It was only later that close aides and confidantes whom the two had described their nightmares to, discovered details of the identical "bad dreams" the two politicians had.
Raila had dreamt that he was standing at Uhuru park and that Kalonzo was lifting a bible in his right hand to take the oath of office for the presidency. He tried to move to stop him in the dream but could not. It was as if his feet were made of heavy lead. So he strated screaming at the top of his voice, "Wapi Kibaki, wapi Kibaki?"
Klaonzo had an identical dream only that in his version, Agwambo was holding up the bible to take the oath of office.
Both men work up sweating profusely, shaking and terrified beyond words.

Fascinating Side Shows At Grace Wahu’s Funeral
Ngando is a place that always brings the emotions flooding back for me. More so the road the leads to the home of the late Mrs Grace Wahu Kenyatta, the first wife of founding father Mzee Jomo Kenyatta. After all that is the very same road I used for the six years that I was a student at nearby Lenana High School.
But there were hardly any emotions yesterday at Ngando during a funeral service to bid Mama Wahu the last farewell. It was more of a celebration of a life well and fully lived. Former president Moi probably put it best when he said that for anybody to live beyond 100 years to the 105 years Wahu lived is a blessing that can only come from the Almighty.

====================================
Grace got married to Johnstone Kamau (that was his name then) in 1919. Her husband at the time worked at the Nairobi City Council. Grace must have been rather proud of her catch because he was one of the very few Africans at the time who moved around in a motorbike. But maybe, just maybe, she might have changed her mind had she seen what was ahead. If truth be told, Grace hardly ever lived with her husband apart from a brief spell of two or three years right at the beginning. The man left for a long trip to Britain where he got married to a mzungu (actually a maid at the house where Johnstone Kamau worked as the gardener. Mr Kamau came back in the early 50s only to be detained shortly after. He was picked up from his house in the middle of the night in an operation that was not very different from the one that netted notorious gangster Simon Matheri at his Athi River residence almost two months ago. Only that they led Mr Kamua (later to be known as Jomo Kenyatta) away in handcuffs and did not fell him in a hail of bullets even after he had surrenedered.
Little wonder that Wahu had only two children with Johnstone Kamau, namely Peter Muigai and Margaret Kenyatta who is much older than Kamau’s last wife, Mama Ngina Kenyatta. They say no man can be a hero to his own wife and to Wahu President Jomo Kenyatta will always be her handsome ambitious Johnstone Kamau with such a wonderful sense of humour.
But what was really fascinating about this funeral service were the side shows.
The three main speakers were President Kibaki, Uhuru Kenyatta (who was also one of the pall bearers) and of course retired President Moi. It is amazing how former President Moi has this ability to quickly bond with the audience and he ended up delivering the best speech in the event.
Even more interesting was how the crowd gathered outside cheered Moi so wildly asd he was l;eaving. The Mzee briefly waved back and rushed away almost looking embarrassed at this show of affection from the wananchi. I thought to myself, “he does not want to offend Kibaki with so much at stake in the coming elections.”
