He exemplified and epitomised the true character of an imperialist puppet. He served the neocolonialist project very well and was immensely rewarded

Sometimes in 1980 i was walking from uhiru to kawangware when i and my uncle kinungi kamande came across a stalled fiat 850.the driver was a then famous doctor maina who was supposed to be in jail for fraud.the bombshell,its sir Charles who made a phone call to the o.i.c ordering him to release dr.maina.later i got a job at the k.c.a.a. in airport operations where sir charles had a lovely cessna 402 aptly registered as 5Y-HCN(hon Charles njonjo) but leased to a private charter company and flown by a former air force soldier very well qualified.but while using it he(sir Charles )would never allow himself to be flown by this african pilot but would use a barely competent english young fellow 23 years old named Stewart who loved near verical takeoffs for thrill after getting sir Charles off board.its around these circles that i heard sir Charles would overthrow the government on August 5of 1982

The biggest mistakes that Charles Mugane Njonjo made was he broke the 48 laws of power states that Never outshine your master ask the then French finance minister who held a party by using stolen funds kilimramba vibaya sana 😂😂😂, the then Seychellois President James Renne told President Moi that Njonjo together with the Police Commissioner at that time Benjamin Gethi AKA Ben Gethi were planning to overthrow Moi's government in 1983, the Muthemba affair that tainted his image having been found in possession of Kenya Air Force ammunition, back and forth by fighting against Vice President Mwai Kibaki in 1980, resigning from the position of Attorney General and becoming a Minister thinking that it had the same aura as his previous position, flying to Britain privately and coming back to 🇰🇪 during the aftermath of the attempted coup, the Tom Mboya assassinations claim etc. So all in all I learnt that Put GOD first everytime, power comes and goes, you will be replaced like nobody's business, you will loose a lot of friends baada ya kuingia kwa ngori, what goes around comes around, forgiveness is key NEVER HOLD GRUDGES.
