Few weeks after securing his release from infamous Nyayo Chambers in 1991, Ex-Kitutu Masaba MP George Anyona was yet again in trouble with authorities.

By then Anyona, who died in 2003, was a regular 'customer' for National Intelligence Service officers and the dreaded Special Branch.

With the winds of change blowing in Kenya, Anyona organised a rally in the present day Gesima ward contrary to authorities, a move that made government to order for his arrest.

"He was from jail and we organised a rally in Gesima. He had been prohibited from attending rallies but he defied order.

"When speeches were going on, NIS and Special Branch descended on us but we tricked them. They thought he had got into his vehicle yet he had taken a bicycle," said Mouko Nyabochoa in an interview with the reporter.

At Keroka, the dreaded police were shocked to find out that actually Anyona was not in the vehicle that he was synonymous with.

His driver, Nyabochoa recalls, could later be released after police failed to establish whether or not Anyona was present in the rally.

Throughout his time in office, Anyona was probably one of the fiercest critic of President Daniel Moi, a move that had him imprisoned for close to nine years.
