THE FAMILY:
Posted on 03/05/2010 7:56:12 PM PST by InspectorSmith
Dr Ang'awa had worked in Embu, Kiambu, Kilifi, Mombasa, Kakamega and Bungoma and was one of the best known members of the medical profession in the country.
Her father was brutally killed when she was a teenager more than 40 years ago, but Lady Justice Mary Ang'awa has opted to forgive his killer. During her reflection at a recent meeting to plan the 40th anniversary of the death of her father, she had no qualms about offering a pardon. "I have forgiven you," she says is the message she has for the killer of Dr James Ang'awa.
One of the pioneer medical specialists in the country, Dr Ang'awa was hit on the head with a blunt object on Tom Mboya Street by an unknown assailant.
A police inquest cleared a suspect who had been arrested although Justice Ang'awa is not convinced the decision was the right one. "My father died a painful death. Investigations and inquests were concluded. I and my brothers--Antony, Hillary, Charles and William-- have climbed a steep path to success with the guidance of our mother Perez. So the best thing to do is to forgive the killer," she told the Sunday Nation.
At the time of her father's death, Justice Ang'awa was a Form One student at Limuru Girls' high school. Her family enjoyed a comfortable life; her father was establishing a reputation for his research into treatment of tuberculosis.
The family lived in high-class government quarters in Upper Hill. Among their neighbours were Dr Njoroge Mungai, former President Kenyatta's personal physician, President Kibaki, who was then minister for Finance and the late Barack Obama Sr, father of American President Barack Obama.
The family was evicted from the house three months after Dr Ang'awa's death.

Somebody noted this before, I believe, but I’ll share it again: http://www.markobamandesandjo.com/article1.asp?a_id=13
“As babies, Barack’s eyes were full of life and hope, and mine were tinged with a bittersweet innocence. Then we were separated and we followed two different destinies.”
Mark born in Kenya. Barack born in Hawaii. WHEN, as babies, were they ever together so that then they “were separated?”
My all time favourite is the John Hunt statement that has him visiting ‘Ann Dunham’ at the Seattle address after he had just returned from Utah...it was the time of the World Fair...
And then, right on cue, in another article, up pops some woman named Barbara and she is reading from the same script...word for word. She had spent the afternoon with ‘Ann Dunham’ and had just returned from Utah at the time of the World Fair...
I remember those articles. Word for word. Somebody by accident gave them the same script, or one of them forget to “individualize” it.
Malik found him living on the streets in Nairobi and took him home...he rebelled against Ruth and wanted to be an African. (Didn’t like being half white, didn’t like being raised by a white woman?)
Yeah, I swallow that.
I remember that thread. Scars on his head, and that odd one on his leg.
And took to him with a panga ? Your guess is as good as mine.
Somebody took to him with something. If he used the name David, I wonder when he started using it and where. Just in Kenya, I presume.
WHEN, as babies, were they ever together so that then they “were separated?”
Well, it’s complicated, but while Mark insists on being identified as the darker of the two little boys, which he obviously isn’t, what he’s saying is that the son of the kenyan student and Anna, and the boy Stanley Ann showed Susan Blake while Mary was babysitting for Anna, ended up sitting somewhere together and had their photo taken, before the dark boy went to Kenya with his father, and the lighter boy ended up sitting on the fence at the zoo in Hawaii.
That’s what it looks like.
‘Didn’t like being half white, didn’t like being raised by a white woman?’
Link?
‘David’ began his ‘life’ as the ‘ghost’ in ‘Dreams’ and must have been a creation to give a name to one-too-many little boys. He’s and imaginary character, and as such, could be eliminated without doing him any real physical damage.
Cheshire cat-like, all that remains is the smile.
It seems clear to me (from reading for years here) that no “David” existed. Just wondering from a comment above, if Zero used the name David, in his first trip to Kenya, since he obviously couldn’t claim to be BHO2 since the actual BHO2 was well known to the family and had been there not long ago.
Am I correct here?
Did you notice the QUESTION MARKS?
He wanted to be an AFRICAN:
Sorry; I don’t read Dreams. It’s a pack of lies. If that is the only source, it’s likely not true.
And his education records. etc.
'David' appears in 'Dreams' as a foil for some person, but for whom? For the boy who Malik grew up with? For the young man named Barack who taught school in Uganda according to Malik?
Perhaps for this young man with whom the kenyan was photographed, who appears in this video, see 0.48
Go to the internet and check out Kenya’s new law marriage and bigamy and discussions. I don’t read it as you portray. Kenya did change its law as to bigamy but it still retains bigamy allowed with wife’s consent and apparently the men let it be known that when they bring another women as customary into the house that women is considered his wife. In fact it appears the men have obtained a bit more leeway as to wives. Nothing changes for me as to how Obama fits into a Kenya escapade. It might change the Hawaii divorce decree a bit and I’ll do my own research as to that.
That’s where ‘David’ is born. In ‘Dreams’ Believe it or not, it’s all the same to me.
THE FAMILY:
‘That’s where ‘David’ is born. In ‘Dreams’’
You are the only person in the world who claims to have discovered that David never existed. You and your fellow keyboard researchers. (I.e.: people who never traveled to Nairobi to investigate records and witnesses firsthand.) Even the site you so enthusiastically commended, Miri’s We the People, states that David was Mark’s real flesh-and-blood brother. As do both major Nairobi newspapers. Face it, he existed. And now he’s dead.
Instead of ‘states that David was Mark’s real flesh-and-blood brother’, I should have said, ‘states as fact that David was Mark’s real flesh-and-blood brother.’ That is more accurate.
OK I stand corrected on the Kenya no bigamy rule. I guess it -would- be bigamy it a wife objected to it.
Lived and died in a book you don't believe. Poor 'David' - I hope you realize how much assistance you have been to date, without your opposition, there's no way I would have been motivated to post all this stuff again. Isn't debating a great method to get information on a page?
