If you are familiar with Kenyan politics, then you know Norman Magaya. The fearless and vocal man was behind the National Super Alliance (Nasa) brigade in the 2017 General Election, whose role in the opposition caused the ruling party anxiety and sleepless nights.
While you might be familiar with the name, you may fail to recognise the face today if you met him. Mr Magaya’s life has been a rollercoaster since 2017.
For more than two years, the man has kept off the limelight, only resorting to tweeting on social media to tell bits of his story. “Politics has a lot of issues,” he says, even before we get to settle down for a chat at his Nairobi home.
