I know Kirwara very well. In fact I went to Kirwara boys high school years ago. Jogoo kimakia Lodge is owned by a man whose name was Dedan Njoroge Nduati who owned more than 50 buses plying Murang'a Thika to Nairobi route. I went to school with one of his sons called Mwangi. You can see him on TV, he is the chairman of Restaurants and bars association especially in Murang'a and Thika. You forgot to mention other kikuyu musicians from Gatanga, some very popular like John Ndichu from Gatunyu, Wamumbe, Kariuki wa Kiarutara which is also from Gatura in Gatanga and of course James Makibi from Gatunyu. You also forgot to mention about Liz Wanyoike, she is from gatanga right before you get to Kirwara. She is very popular and the owner NIBS college and Lizzie preparatory school and also Emory hotel in Kileleshwa.
You mean all these great people come from muranga country aiiii you should tell us what's the secret of muranga people coz the level of their prosperity is on another level
@@AllanNdungu-i2r There are very many Billionaires from Murang'a in general. James Mwangi of Equity bank, Peter Munga Equity bank, Benson Wairegi of Britam, Former starehe MP Gerishon Kirima, The owner of Maguna's supermarkets simon Wachira, SK macharia of Citizen TV, John Muchuki, Late Chris kirubi, John mwangi kagema of Enashipai lodge in Naivasha, Jimna Mbaru of Dyre and Brayer stock brokers, Joe Kibe real estate billionare, John kibunga kimani another billionare, Nelson mwangi the founder of super metro buses in nairobi, also a billionare. All these are from Murang'a and many more, the list is very long.
@@AllanNdungu-i2r There are no secrets, no short cuts, its just that you have to be smart with money, work hard, resilient, persistence and be honest how you get money and that will pay off.
The early 1980 Jogoo Kimakia buses were known as Nissan UD. UD stood for Uniflow Diesel. The engine power unit was a two stroke diesel engine which made uphill task a walk in the park and made the then caball and Mitsubishi canter box-body matatus at a disadvantage.
Honestly am shocked by the way muranga is beautiful 🤩 good roads connection and their towns are quite busy. I think this episode of muranga county will be a banger good job Mr lonely traveller enjoying ur content always
Yes there is connection, that joggo kimakia lodge was owned by mzee who aslo owned jogoo kimakia buses, he was known as njoroge nduati, had a lot of buses then, i am from thika, so i knew him personaaly, he is late now, if you drive that road past gatanga, all the way to the end of tarmac, there is that small town past gatanda with a nice restauant which was known as tarmac end inn, i dont know kama bado iko,that names comes from the fact that the tarmac ends there, that road was constructed in early 70s by a germany company mowlem, the tarmac is still not damaged, never joke with germany products just like their cars. thanks for the video,hi ilikuwa area yangu, had a girlfreand in kirwara just after gatanga town before i left kenya for abroad,, keep informing us, ndoka kenya nitakutafta we take grilled goat , asante
Boss you didn't show us from thika how you got to this town of kirwara, at what area did you branch from the main road, plus last year was my first time kwenda muranga for a burial, lakini tuliwacha jina huko😂😂😂, plus ingia hiyo supermarket ya kim uchukue vitu na usilipe lakini wakikutwanga usiseme ni mimi
Gatanga is a corruption of the name Katanga of drcongo as much as Gathanji next to gatanga corresponds to Kasanje next to Katanga back in drc.the music angle perhaps.these fellows are clearly Congolese,even in looks
