The recent attack to city billionaire Jimi Wanjigi has left those close to him and Uhuru wondering if it was real or just a staged greek mythology.
Jimi and Uhuru are said to have been friends since childhood thanks to their priveleged backgrounds.
Friends have said both Jimi and Uhuru were at the prestigious St Mary's school.
Uhuru was one class ahead of Jimi.
They also played rugby together at St Marys.
They then headed to the US for their university education.
And due to their proximity to power, the two sons of wealthy Maina Wanjigi and Jomo Kenyatta ventured into different fields.
They, however, kept in touch and have sustained their families friendship ties.
As he was ahead of Jimi in school, Uhuru is still ahead of Jimi as the Head of State though the latter is also King of Cash.
It is the ruthless use of state power by Uhuru to harass his former buddy that has left friends confused.
They also don't understand why Jimi is trying to use the same money he made courtesy of his proximity to the Kenyatta's to dislodge Uhuru from power.
