The Story of Idi Amin serves as a curious case of when deceit, ambition and agression takes the place of hope, faith and trust. Often referred to as Big Daddy and The Gentle Giant, this enigma of a person ended up being a fierce ogre, whose war was not only directed to the colonial masters and the immigrants to his country, but even to his own people.This is the story of Distrust, Abuse, Ruthlessness and Kleptomania (D.A.R.K) against the mighty forces of the people.

Mwai Kibaki was a highly esteemed economist and seasoned politician who captured the hearts of the Kenyan people with his promises of change and progress. As the country's third president, he inherited a legacy of corruption and political instability, vowing to steer Kenya towards prosperity and unity.As the early years of his presidency unfolded, Kibaki's efforts to tackle corruption and improve economic conditions earned him praise both domestically and internationally. Kenya's GDP growth soared, and numerous development projects were initiated, giving hope to a nation that had long sought meaningful progress.However, the promising image of Kibaki as a transformative leader took a dark turn during the 2007 elections. The tightly contested race for the presidency pitted Kibaki against Raila Odinga, a charismatic opposition leader, resulting in accusations of electoral malpractice and vote-rigging. The elections turned into a flashpoint of tension, and as the results were announced, claims of fraud and irregularities ignited widespread protests across the country.In the aftermath of the contested election results, Kenya witnessed a shocking escalation of violence, tribal clashes, and anarchy. The unity that Kibaki once promised seemed to crumble before the eyes of the Kenyan people, as communities turned against each other in a deeply polarizing and devastating conflict.Follow us on our platforms:Tiktok: https://www.tiktok.com/@africanfootprintspodcast?_t=8cJa4iFPM8L&_r=1Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/africanfootprintspodcast/Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/3I3geCzIVwDz7n2NZ962fO

Imagine waking up one day to find an uninvited stranger ploughing your field, or even worse, eating your food straight from the kitchen. To add to the irony, the watchman who you have at the gates is the one who has sanctioned their entrance and now, you cannot do anything.That story is incredulous. But the Ogoni people knew too well circumstances that would be comparable to this. From thriving as small scale fishermen to their land being auctioned off to the ravaging companies that sought to mine their oil, this hit a tad bit too close to home. Then along came a hero, Ken Saro Wiwa.

What happens when a government decides to profile its own people based on their peculiar culture and lifestyle? Well, for the Dagojia community, little is left to the imagination for in 1984, under the sanction of the executive government, thousands of their men, aged from 12 years and above were rounded up and taken to Wagallah Air Strip for 'enhanced interrogation.' What followed were perhaps the worst atrocities to be committed to a people who for the most part, were victims of a government that failed them.Follow our socials:Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/africanfootprintspodcast/?igshid=YmMyMTA2M2Y%3DTiktok: https://www.tiktok.com/@africanfootprintspodcast?_t=8cJa4iFPM8L&_r=1Spotify: https://t.co/TYT88DY2WiProduced by @RedSquareMedia254

In this episode, I talk about one man who almost brought Kenya's economy to its knees. A man who seemingly has an eye for precious metals and is slippery enough to slide into the courts of the monarchs of Africa. More than that, I speak of the hero, who like his name, was a David of his era in facing the goliaths of corruption to save a fledgeling economy, though never to get the recognition he deserved.For more content:Youtube: https://youtu.be/DBFVn2matb4 Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/africanfootprintspodcast/?igshid=YmMyMTA2M2Y%3D TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@africanfootprintspodcast Production: @RedSquareMedia254 Production House
