Kenyans Don't Want Hypocrites at Democracy Hero Matiba's Funeral

Kenyans have called out sympathisers of Daniel Arap Moi's brutal Kanu regime for sending condolence messages after the death of multi-party champion Kenneth Matiba who was a political prisoner during Moi's brutal Kanu tenure. Matiba suffered a stroke while at Kamiti Maximum Prison where he was held without trial in the 1990s. Some even recommended National Resistance Movement self-declared general Miguna Miguna take up the role of South African opposition leader Julius Malema and tell off fake mourners like Malema did at the funeral of anti-apartheid icon Winnie Mandela.
