The relationship between President Mwai Kibaki and his successor Uhuru Kenyatta was like father and son before politics changed everything.
Young Uhuru growing up in Gatundu schooled with Kibaki’s sons when he was the Minister for Finance after he became his godfather in his infancy. Later Uhuru joined politics when Mr Kibaki was a senior politician serving in the Opposition before they faced off in the 2002 presidential elections.
