Kenya; The Making Of A Nation

I saw an advert in the dailies for the above titled DVD and headed straight to NuMetro to get myself a copy. The fact that it is co-produced by Hillary Ng'weno made it a must buy item.

Even though I also bought several other local productions, my priority is to watch the 14 part half hour documentaries that detail Kenya's political landscape from 1959 to 2007. The 2 part DVD is an invaluable resource of Kenya's political history.

For Kshs 1500, this is by far the best buy from my trip to Kenya.

Addendum; I can only hope that everything in the series is factual (and true) because it contains a lot of information that I have never heard/read before.

How I wish someone could sell it online... hold on, btw, do you have the address and contact info? I would not mind putting this online. I am sure there are people in the diaspora who would have the same interest in buying the dvd.

Anon, There is no contact information on the DVD case. Not even an email address or website.

Maina, I'm already stateside. By the time I pass by again, you may have gotten a copy. The DVD retails at 1800/= but the price has been reduced.
