Rest in peace comrade. This man spent his life yelling at the injustices in kenya from thousands of miles away in sweden. I always watched his videos for comic relief

RIP - Njamba, we've interacted with Ngatia and those Sweden/Norway comrades since around 1999. They seemed very angry. The other once I remember is Okoth Sewe.

Okoth Osewe is still around. He is the one who would interview Ngatia. We will miss Ngatia. I hope he had a chance to visit the country he fought for so dearly. As I am getting older i am starting to come to terms with the fact that I may never settle back in Zamunda. Ngatia heart was in kenya that where his home was. One thing i noticed is that his wife and his funeral seem to not invovle the usual fund raising kenyans do here in states. He was a socialist even in death

What is it about the Kikuyu tongue that makes speakers of that language so prone to shrubbing? A native Kikuyu speaker can't be fluent in another language I have noticed.

You are conflating accent with fluency though.  Ngatia was fluent, with a very thick accent - which seems to be normal for his generation.  And living in Scandinavia, he probably experienced little need to adjust it.  I bet his Scandivanian[sic] was a bit more standard.

No I'm not. They have the woat accents but they are not fluent either
